caffe与机器学习

1. 什么是caffe?

Caffe is a deep learning framework made with expression, speed, and modularity in mind. It is developed by Berkeley AI Research (BAIR) and by community contributors. Yangqing Jia created the project during his PhD at UC Berkeley. Caffe is released under the BSD 2-Clause license.

优势：富有表现力的架构、可扩展的代码、速度、社区支持

结构：

• Nets, Layers, and Blobs: the anatomy of a Caffe model.
• Forward / Backward: the essential computations of layered compositional models.
• Loss: the task to be learned is defined by the loss.
• Solver: the solver coordinates model optimization.
• Layer Catalogue: the layer is the fundamental unit of modeling and computation – Caffe’s catalogue includes layers for state-of-the-art models.
• Interfaces: command line, Python, and MATLAB Caffe.
• Data: how to caffeinate data for model input.

For a closer look at a few details:

• Caffeinated Convolution: how Caffe computes convolutions. 

深度学习：

There are helpful references freely online for deep learning that complement our hands-on tutorial. These cover introductory and advanced material, background and history, and the latest advances.

The Tutorial on Deep Learning for Vision from CVPR ‘14 is a good companion tutorial for researchers. Once you have the framework and practice foundations from the Caffe tutorial, explore the fundamental ideas and advanced research directions in the CVPR ‘14 tutorial.

A broad introduction is given in the free online draft of Neural Networks and Deep Learning by Michael Nielsen. In particular the chapters on using neural nets and how backpropagation works are helpful if you are new to the subject.

These recent academic tutorials cover deep learning for researchers in machine learning and vision:

• Deep Learning Tutorial by Yann LeCun (NYU, Facebook) and Marc’Aurelio Ranzato (Facebook). ICML 2013 tutorial.
• LISA Deep Learning Tutorial by the LISA Lab directed by Yoshua Bengio (U. Montréal).

For an exposition of neural networks in circuits and code, check out Understanding Neural Networks from a Programmer’s Perspective by Andrej Karpathy (Stanford).

 

2. 开发与使用

2.1 使用训练好的model进行分类

参考 csbn上的一篇博客，从github的model-zoo上可以下载需要的已经训练好的caffemodel文件、对应的均值文件(mean)、网络结构定义文件。

加载以上三个文件，创建一个神经网络，加载文件后对其进行分类获得结果。

其他例子：从人脸中识别年龄和性别：
