"Going Deeper with Recursive Convolutional Layers" by Johan Chagnon, Markus Hagenbuchner et al.
The development of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) trends towards models with an ever growing number of Convolutional Layers (CLs) and increases the number of trainable parameters significantly. Such models are sensitive to these structural parameters, which implies that large models have to be carefully tuned using hyperparameter optimisation, a process that can be very time consuming. In this paper, we study the usage of Recursive Convolutional Layers (RCLs), a module relying on an algebraic feedback loop wrapped around a CL, which can replace any CL in CNNs. Using three publicly availa...
