  • Variational saccading

    20.12.2019

    Ever tried to train a deep neural network over high resolution images taken by modern smartphone cameras or smart devices? The memory and inferential costs when working with inputs of such large dimensions (e.g. 4000x3000) increase rapidly and often prohibitively. Jason Ramapuram proposes a solution in his new paper "Variational Saccading: Efficient Inference for Large ...
