Transfer Learning using Feature Extraction from Trained model: Food Images Classification

The idea of transfer learning comes from a curious phenomenon that many deep neural networks trained on natural images learn similar features. These are texture, corners, edges and color blobs in the initial layers. Such initial-layer features appear not to specific to a particular data-set or task but are general in that they are applicable … Read more
