Knowledge graph-based image classification
Résumé
This paper introduces a deep learning method for image classification that leverages knowledge formalised as a graph created from information represented by pairs attribute/value. The proposed method investigates a loss function that adaptively combines the classical cross-entropy commonly used in deep learning with a novel penalty function. The novel loss function is derived from the representation of nodes after embedding the knowledge graph and incorporates the proximity between class and image nodes. Its formulation enables the model to focus on identifying
the boundary between the most challenging classes to distinguish. Experimental results on several image databases demonstrate improved performance compared to state-of-the-art methods, including classical deep learning algorithms and recent algorithms that incorporate knowledge represented by a graph.
