Problems solved by technology

When the training data presents an exponent distribution with a long tail, as the number of tail images increases, the generalization ability of the neural network decreases
[0005] Existing solutions usually use the method of discarding tail data, which causes the loss of information in the data set, and fundamentally does not make use of more sufficient inter-class information to help the convolutional neural network model improve the generalization ability

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of neural network, and provides a method and apparatus for increasing generalization capability of a convolutional neural network. The method includes the following steps: reading a group of images from a training set, mapping the group of images to a plurality of image character vectors, dividing the plurality of image characteristic vectors into a plurality of classes based on the types of the images; based on the image characteristic vectors of each class, calculating the intra-class loss function of all the characteristic vectors; based on the image characteristic vectors of each class, calculating the inter-class loss function of all the characteristic vectors; based on the intra-class loss function of all the characteristic vectors, using the back propagation algorithm to update the weight of each node of the convolutional neural network; repeating the above mentioned steps until the convolutional neural network converges on the training set or reaches preset repeating times. According to the invention, the method and the apparatus can save all data in long-tailed distribution, makes full usage of abundant inter-class information of tail data, and increases the generalization capability of the convolutional neural network.
