Capsule Networks – A group of neurons which uses vectors to represent an object
- ipunchghosts 8y agoThis article is completely wrong. It's already been proven that unless you have the reconstruction penalty, capsules naturally don't capture orientation and work similar to bag of words models.
- sgt101 8y agoPlease, please do not call activation functions neurons! A neuron is a name for a type of cell in animal brains which has several variants, many modalities of behaviour (chemical, electrical, temporal) and which we are making many new discoveries about as our technology advances.
- BucketSort 8y agoAn activation function is not the only part of an artificial neuron, there's also the weighted input aggregation. Also, it's well known and understood that artificial neurons are biologically inspired, but are not in fact, neurons themselves.
- sgt101 8y agoIt is amongst people who are interested in such things, but it isn't amongst journalists and many people who read the popular press and get the wrong end of lots of sticks as a result.
- BucketSort 8y agoThat's their fault for not doing their due diligence. And what does it matter to the general public learning of these things through journalists anyway? It's not like they are doing anything with this knowledge that requires precision. It's all intellectual excitement and cocktail party fodder to them.
- twtw 8y agoDoes it also bother you when people talk about using a "mouse" to move "files" to their "desktop?"
- sgt101 8y agoOnly if they use the analogy to do things like convince people that mice carry little red lights on their tummies.
- 1024core 8y agoThe first sentence: > Since 2012 with the introduction of AlexNet, convolutional neural networks(CNNs) are being used as sole resource for many wide range image problems. Um, CNNs have been around for 30 years as neural networks.
