<p>This tutorial will guide you through training a convolutional neural network to classify objects using the CIFAR-10 image classification dataset.
As shown in the following figure, the convolutional neural network can recognize the main object in images, and output the classification result.</p>
<p><center><img alt="Image Classification" src="../../_images/image_classification.png" /></center></p>
<div class="section" id="data-preparation">
<span id="data-preparation"></span><h2>Data Preparation<a class="headerlink" href="#data-preparation" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>First, download CIFAR-10 dataset. CIFAR-10 dataset can be downloaded from its official website.</p>
<p><a class="reference external" href="https://www.cs.toronto.edu/~kriz/cifar.html">https://www.cs.toronto.edu/~kriz/cifar.html</a></p>
<p>We have prepared a script to download and process CIFAR-10 dataset. The script will download CIFAR-10 dataset from the official dataset.
It will convert it to jpeg images and organize them into a directory with the required structure for the tutorial. Make sure that you have installed pillow and its dependents.
Consider the following commands:</p>
<ol class="simple">
<li>install pillow dependents</li>
</ol>
<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>sudo apt-get install libjpeg-dev
pip install pillow
</pre></div>
</div>
<ol class="simple">
<li>download data and preparation</li>
</ol>
<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="nb">cd</span> demo/image_classification/data/
sh download_cifar.sh
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>The CIFAR-10 dataset consists of 60000 32x32 color images in 10 classes, with 6000 images per class. There are 50000 training images and 10000 test images.</p>
<p>Here are the classes in the dataset, as well as 10 random images from each:
<center><img alt="Image Classification" src="../../_images/cifar.png" /></center></p>
<p>After downloading and converting, we should find a directory (cifar-out) containing the dataset in the following format:</p>
<div class="highlight-default"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="n">train</span>

</pre></div>
</div>
<p>It has two directories:<code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">train</span></code> and <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">test</span></code>. These two directories contain training data and testing data of CIFAR-10, respectively. Each of these two folders contains 10 sub-folders, ranging from <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">airplane</span></code> to <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">truck</span></code>. Each sub-folder contains images with the corresponding label. After the images are organized into this structure, we are ready to train an image classification model.</p>
</div>
<div class="section" id="preprocess">
<span id="preprocess"></span><h2>Preprocess<a class="headerlink" href="#preprocess" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>After the data has been downloaded, it needs to be pre-processed into the Paddle format. We can run the following command for preprocessing.</p>

<p>A Convolutional Neural Network is a feedforward neural network that uses convolution layers. It is very suitable for building neural networks that process and understand images. A standard convolutional neural network is shown below:</p>
<p><img alt="Convolutional Neural Network" src="../../_images/lenet.png" /></p>
<p>Convolutional Neural Network contains the following layers:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Convolutional layer: It uses convolution operation to extract features from an image or a feature map.</li>
<li>Pooling layer: It uses max-pooling to downsample feature maps.</li>
<li>Fully Connected layer: It uses fully connected connections to transform features.</li>
</ul>
<p>Convolutional Neural Network achieves amazing performance for image classification because it exploits two important characteristics of images: <em>local correlation</em> and <em>spatial invariance</em>. By iteratively applying convolution and max-pooing operations, convolutional neural network can well represent these two characteristics of images.</p>
<p>For more details of how to define layers and their connections, please refer to the documentation of layers.</p>
