- killjoywashere 9y agoThe visiondummy article is great, but how many dimensions are too many for a DNN? Let's say I have 100 TB of image data with 50 classes. Satellite data, I can have huge images, or tile them into small images. He's arguing for smaller down to a point? What point? When the convergence gets to a minimum?
