Deep Nearest Class Mean Model for Incremental Odor Classification
share
In recent years, more and more machine learning algorithms have been applied to odor recognition. These odor recognition algorithms usually assume that the training dataset is static. However, for some odor recognition tasks, the odor dataset is dynamically growing where not only the training samples but also the number of classes increase over time. Motivated by this concern, we proposed a deep nearest class mean (DNCM) model which combines the deep learning framework and nearest class mean (NCM) method. DNCM not only can leverage deep neural network to extract deep features, but also well suited for integrating new classes. Experiments demonstrate that the proposed DNCM model is effective and efficient for incremental odor classification, especially for new classes with only a small number of training examples.
