This AI Paper Proposes Two Types of Convolution, Pixel Difference Convolution (PDC) and Binary Pixel Difference Convolution (Bi-PDC), to Enhance the Representation Capacity of Convolutional Neural Network CNNs
Deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs) have been a game-changer for several computer vision tasks. These include object identification, object recognition, image segmentation, and edge detection. The ever-growing size and power consumption of DNNs have been key to enabling much of this advancement. Embedded, wearable, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices, which have restricted computing resources…
