Evaluating the Progress of Deep Learning for Visual Relational Concepts
share
Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have become the state of the art method for image classification in the last 7 years, but despite the fact that they achieve super human performance on many classification datasets, there are lesser known datasets where they almost fail completely and perform much worse than humans. We will show that these problems correspond to relational concepts as defined by the field of concept learning. Therefore, we will present current deep learning research for visual relational concepts. Analyzing the current literature, we will hypothesise that iterative processing of the input, together with shifting attention between the iterations will be needed to efficiently and reliably solve real world relational concept learning. In addition, we will conclude that many current datasets overestimate the performance of tested systems by providing data in an already pre-attended form.
