Condition-CNN: A hierarchical multi-label fashion image classification model

作者:

Highlights:

• Fashion image recognition involves prediction of a hierarchy of class labels.

• Branching Convolutional Neural Networks can predict hierarchical labels of an image.

• Condition-CNN is proposed based on Branching Convolutional Neural Networks.

• Kaggle Fashion Product Images dataset is used which has 3 levels of class labels.

• Achieves 99.8, 98.1, and 91.0% accuracies respectively for high to low level labels.

• Applies teacher forcing algorithm to reduce training time for greater accuracy.
