Project Abstract
Deep learning Neural Networks have been a subject of interest for the wide range of problems they can be effectively applied too. However, current architectures are unable to operate on very large datasets such as high-resolution medical microscopy due to the computational and memory requirements. A common approach to tackle this problem is to reduce the image resolution, which leads to loss of massive information. The information that can be critical for the classification task. Models which effectively use high resolution images are essential for applications in the fields of histopathology, autonomous vehicles, and many others. In this work, we propose exploring various novel methods and evaluate them for their performance on high-resolution data. We demonstrate that by deploying patches-base attention deep neural network, we can leverage the importance of image patches to improve the performance and decrease the overall computation.
