"belonging to the cell if all five networks agree. adapted from falk et al. (2019). 11.6 why do nets with residual connections perform so well? residual networks allow much deeper networks to be trained; it’s possible to extend the resnet architecture to 1000 layers and still train effectively. the improvement in image classification performance was initially attributed to the additional network depth, but two pieces of evidence contradict this viewpoint. first,shallower,widerresidualnetworkssometimesoutperformdeeper,narrowerones with a comparable parameter count. in other words, better performance can sometimes beachievedwithanetworkwithfewerlayersbutmorechannelsperlayer. second,there is evidence that the gradients during training do not propagate effectively through very long paths in the unraveled network (figure 11.4b). in effect, a very deep network may act more like a combination of shallower networks. the current view is that residual connections add some value of their own, as well as allowing deeper networks to be trained. this perspective is supported by the fact that the loss surfaces of residual networks around a minimum tend to be smoother and morepredictablethanthoseforthesamenetworkwhentheskipconnectionsareremoved (figure 11.13). this may make it easier to learn a good solution that generalizes well. 11.7 summary increasingnetworkdepthindefinitelycausesbothtrainingandtestperformanceforimage classification to decrease. this may be because the gradient of the loss with respect to draft: please send errata to [email protected] 11 residual networks figure 11.12 stacked hourglass networks for pose estimation. a) the network inputisanimagecontainingaperson,andtheoutputisasetofheatmaps,with oneheatmapforeachjoint. thisisformulatedasaregressionproblemwherethe targets are heatmap images with small, highlighted regions at the ground-truth jointpositions. thepeakoftheestimatedheatmapisusedtoestablisheachfinal joint position. b) the architecture consists of initial convolutional and residual layers followed by a series of hourglass blocks. c) each hourglass block consists ofanencoder-decodernetworksimilartotheu-netexceptthattheconvolutions usezeropadding,somefurtherprocessingisdoneintheresiduallinks,andthese links add this processed representation rather than concatenate it. each blue cuboid is itself a bottleneck residual block (figure 11.7b). adapted from newell et al.
