Ivan Vasilev

Ivan Vasilev started working on the first open source Java deep learning library with GPU support in 2013. The library was acquired by a German company, with whom he continued its development. He has also worked as a machine learning engineer and researcher in medical image classification and segmentation with deep neural networks. Since 2017, he has focused on financial machine learning. He co-founded an algorithmic trading company, where he's the lead engineer. He holds an MSc in artificial intelligence from Sofia University St. Kliment Ohridski and has written two previous books on the same topic.

Introducing MobileNet

In this section, we'll discuss a lightweight CNN model called MobileNet (MobileNetV2: Inverted Residuals and Linear Bottlenecks, https://arxiv.org/abs/1801.04381). We'll focus on the second revision of this idea (MobileNetV1 was introduced in MobileNets: Efficient Convolutional Neural Networks for Mobile Vision Applications, https://arxiv.org/abs/1704.04861).

MobileNet is aimed at devices with limited memory and computing power, such as mobile phones (the name kind of gives it away). To reduce its footprint, the network uses DSC, linear bottlenecks, and inverted residuals.

We are already familiar with DSC, so let's discuss the other two:

  • Linear bottlenecks: To understand this concept, we'll quote the paper:
"Consider a deep neural network consisting of n layers Li each of which has an activation tensor of dimensions . Throughout...
