Description
Toyon Research Corporation proposes to develop algorithms that improve the precision and recall of neural networks for low-shot object classification and detection. Our approach is based upon developing a descriptive multi-domain feature representation of the low-shot target as well as the surrounding context. A multi-branch neural network merges the various domains of information to perform accurate classification of low-shot targets. In addition to this approach, samples of low-shot targets will be supplemented with synthetically generated images using traditional computer-aided design.
