Abstract

It is very good to apply the saliency model in the visual selective attention mechanism to the preprocessing process of image recognition. However, the mechanism of visual perception is still unclear, so this visual saliency model is not ideal. To this end, this paper proposes a novel image recognition approach using multiscale saliency model and GoogLeNet. First, a multi-scale convolutional neural network was taken advantage of constructing multiscale salient maps, which could be used as filters. Second, an original image was combined with the salient maps to generate the filtered image, which highlighted the salient regions and suppressed the background in the image. Third, the image recognition task was implemented by adopting the classical GoogLeNet model. In this paper, many experiments were completed by comparing four commonly used evaluation indicators on the standard image database MSRA10K. The experimental results show that the recognition results of the test images based on the proposed method are superior to some stateof- the-art image recognition methods, and are also more approximate to the results of human eye observation.
