Networks with pixels embedding: a method to improve noise resistance in images classification
share
In the task of images classification, usually, the network is sensitive to noises. For example, an image of cat with noises might be misclassified as an ostrich. Conventionally, to overcome the problem of noises, one uses the technique of data enhancement, that is, to teach the network to distinguish noises by adding more images with noises in the training dataset. In this work, we provide a noise-resistance network in images classification by introducing a technique of pixels embedding. We test the network with pixels embedding, which is abbreviated as the network with PE, on the mnist database of handwritten digits. It shows that the network with PE outperforms the conventional network on images with noises. The technique of pixels embedding can be used in many tasks of images classification to improve noise resistance.
