A Novel lightweight Convolutional Neural Network, ExquisiteNetV2

Shi-Yao Zhou, Chung-Yen Su

In the paper of ExquisiteNetV1, the ability of classification of ExquisiteNetV1 is worse than DenseNet. In this article, we propose a faster and better model ExquisiteNetV2. We conduct many experiments to evaluate its performance. We test ExquisiteNetV2, ExquisiteNetV1 and other 9 well-known models on 15 credible datasets under the same condition. According to the experimental results, ExquisiteNetV2 gets the highest classification accuracy over half of the datasets. Important of all, ExquisiteNetV2 has fewest amounts of parameters. Besides, in most instances, ExquisiteNetV2 has fastest computing speed.
