COLLABORATIVE ACTIVATION FOR DEEP LEARNING FIELD

Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for machine learning including deep convolutional neural networks. In some example embodiments, there may be provided a method that includes receiving, at a trained machine learning model, a portion of a test image; activating, at the machine learning model, a convolutional result formed based on the portion of the test image, the activation based on neighboring regions in the test image; and providing, by the machine learning model, an activated output. Related systems, methods, and articles of manufacture are also described.
