• Authors: Joshua Peeples, Salim Al Kharsa, Luke Saleh, Alina Zare,
• Abstract summary: Local binary patterns and edge histogram descriptors have been shown to be informative features for a variety of computer vision tasks. In this paper, we explore whether these features can be learned through histogram layers embedded in a neural network. We present neural versions of local binary pattern and edge histogram descriptors that jointly improve the feature representation and perform image classification.

• Abstract: In the computer vision literature, many effective histogram-based features have been developed. These engineered features include local binary patterns and edge histogram descriptors among others and they have been shown to be informative features for a variety of computer vision tasks. In this paper, we explore whether these features can be learned through histogram layers embedded in a neural network and, therefore, be leveraged within deep learning frameworks. By using histogram features, local statistics of the feature maps from the convolution neural networks can be used to better represent the data. We present neural versions of local binary pattern and edge histogram descriptors that jointly improve the feature representation and perform image classification. Experiments are presented on benchmark and real-world datasets.

  This paper proposes a novel graph neural network architecture combined with a novel graph data representation called call graphlets. A specialized graph neural network model operates on this graph representation, learning to map it to a feature vector that encodes semantic binary code similarities. Experimental results show that the combination of call graphlets and the novel graph neural network architecture achieves comparable or state-of-the-art performance.

  Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) with numerical node features and graph structure as inputs have demonstrated superior performance on various supervised learning tasks with graph data. The best models for such data types in most standard supervised learning settings with IID (non-graph) data are not easily incorporated into a GNN. Here we propose a robust stacking framework that fuses graph-aware propagation with arbitrary models intended for IID data.

We show, in two different species and across multiple brain areas, that this method yields morphological cell type clusterings on par with manual feature-based classification by experts. Our method could potentially enable data-driven discovery of novel morphological features and cell types in large-scale datasets.
