OPTIMIZATION METHOD FOR INTEGRATION OF CONVOLUTIONAL AND RECURRENT NEURAL NETWORK

Abstract

Abstract In recent years, convolutional neural networks have been widely used in image processing and have shown good results. Particularly useful was their ability to automatically extract image features (textures and shapes of objects). The article proposes a method that improves the accuracy and speed of recognition of an ultra-precise neural network based on image recognition of people’s faces. At first, a recurrent neural network is introduced into the convolutional neural network, thereby studying the characteristics of the image more deeply. Deep image characteristics are studied in parallel using a convolutional and recurrent neural network. In line with the idea of skipping the ResNet convolution layer, a new ShortCut3- ResNet residual module is built. A double optimization model is created to fully optimize the convolution process. A study of the influence of various parameters of a convolutional neural network on network performance is demonstrated, also analyzed using simulation experiments. As a result, the optimal parameters of the convolutional neural network are established. Ex- periments show that the method presented in this paper can study various images of people’s faces regardless of age, gender, and also improves the accuracy of feature extraction and image recognition ability.
