随着计算机和社交网络的飞速发展,图像美感的自动评价产生了越来越大的需求并受到了广泛关注.由于图像美感评价的主观性和复杂性,传统的手工特征和局部特征方法难以全面表征图像的美感特点,并准确量化或建模.本文提出一种并行深度卷积神经网络的图像美感分类方法,从同一图像的不同角度出发,利用深度学习网络自动完成特征学习,得到更为全面的图像美感特征描述;然后利用支持向量机训练特征并建立分类器,实现图像美感分类.通过在两个主流的图像美感数据库上的实验显示,本文方法与目前已有的其他算法对比,获得了更好的分类准确率.
With the rapid development of computers and social networks, automatic image aesthetic evaluation is in demand and has attracted more and more attention recently. Since the complexity and subjectivity of image aesthetic evaluation task, the traditional handcrafted features and generic image descriptors are hard to represent the overall aesthetic character of images. It is difficult for them to quantify and model the image aesthetics exactly. In this paper,a new method of image classification based on parallel deep convolutional neural networks is proposed. We use parallel deep learning networks to automatically complete feature extraction and acquire more comprehensive description of image aesthetics from different views. Then a support vector machine(SVM) classifier is built with the aesthetic features to accomplish image aesthetic classification. Experiments on two most frequently used databases of image aesthetics demonstrate that our proposed method achieves better results than other exsiting methods.
