Abstract
- Classifiers trained on disjointed classes with few labelled data points are used in one-shot learning to identify visual concepts from other classes. Recently, Siamese networks and similarity layers have been used to solve the one-shot learning problem, achieving state-of-the-art performance on visual-character recognition datasets. Various techniques have been developed over the years to improve the performance of these networks on fine-grained image classification datasets. They focused primarily on improving the loss and activation functions, augmenting visual features, employing multiscale metric learning, and pre-training and fine-tuning the backbone network. We investigate similarity layers for one-shot learning tasks and propose two frameworks for combining these layers into a MergedNet network. On all four datasets used in our experiment, MergedNet outperformed the baselines based on classification accuracy, and it generalises to other datasets when trained on miniImageNet.
