EddyNet: A Deep Neural Network For Pixel-Wise Classification of Oceanic Eddies
This is the supplementary material of the publication "EddyNet: A Deep Neural Network For Pixel-Wise Classification of Oceanic Eddies", from R. Lguensat et al., accepted as an oral presentation for IGARSS2018. Pre-print at: https://arxiv.org/abs/1711.03954
Eddynet is an U-Net like architecture (a convolutional encoder-decoder followed by a pixel-wise classification layer + skip connections). <br />
Paper main messages:
- A deep neural net that "emulates" the result of a geometry based and expert based method
- Comparing EddyNet with a version where we use SELU activation function (EddyNet_S). Replacing directly ReLU+BN with SELU resulted in a noisy loss and hurted the performance, we then kept BN after maxpooling, transposed deconvolution and concatenation.
- For this multiclass classification problem, we use (1-mean dice coefficient) as a loss function instead of the categorical cross entropy loss
- Eddynet is easily modulable and can be used for further studies such as adding new information (e.g. Sea Surface Temperature), or training with another ground truth.
