EfficientNet is a groundbreaking architecture that reimagines how we scale deep learning models. By uniformly adjusting depth, width, and resolution using a compound coefficient, EfficientNet achieves state-of-the-art accuracy on ImageNet while remaining highly efficient.
-
Understanding the Methodology:
- Begin by reading the original paper by Mingxing Tan and Quoc V. Le (published in 2019). Dive into the concepts behind compound scaling and efficiency improvements.
- Focus on the novel approach to model scaling—it's the heart of EfficientNet's magic!
