摘要:

批归一化(Batch Normalization)是所有当前最优神经网络架构的核心组件。但由于它会带来诸多实际问题,近期大量研究致力于设计无需归一化的架构。本文表明,权重初始化是训练类ResNet无归一化网络的关键。具体而言,我们对残差块输出与跳跃连接分支的求和操作做了小幅修改,从而使整个网络得到正确初始化。实验显示,这种改进后的架构在CIFAR-10、CIFAR-100和ImageNet上取得了具有竞争力的结果,且无需额外正则化或算法修改。

英文摘要:

Batch Normalization is an essential component of all state-of-the-art neural networks architectures. However, since it introduces many practical issues, much recent research has been devoted to designing normalization-free architectures. In this paper, we show that weights initialization is key to train ResNet-like normalization-free networks. In particular, we propose a slight modification to the summation operation of a block output to the skip-connection branch, so that the whole network is correctly initialized. We show that this modified architecture achieves competitive results on CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100 and ImageNet without further regularization nor algorithmic modifications.
