the Multi-layer convolutional sparse coding (ML-CSC) model has been regarded as a theoretical explanation for convolutional neural networks (CNN). While the ML-CSC model performs well on datasets with high feature contrast
its performance is not satisfactory on datasets with low feature contrast. To address this issue
this paper introduces a multi-scale technique to design a multi-scale multi-layer convolutional sparse coding network (MSMCSCNet)
which not only achieves better image classification results in scenarios with weak feature contrast
but also provides the model with a solid theoretical foundation and higher interpretability. Experimental results demonstrate that
without increasing the parameter count
MSMCSCNet achieves accuracy improvements of 5.75
9.75
and 9.8 percentage points on the Cifar10
Cifar100 datasets
and the Imagenet32 subset
respectively
compared to existing ML-CSC models. Furthermore
ablation experiments further validate the effectiveness of the model's multi-scale design and feature selection mechanism.
