Abstract
Most of the previous studies for bark recognition have focused on the extraction of LBP-like statistical features. Deep learning approach was not well studied because of the difficulty of acquiring large volume of bark image dataset. To overcome the bark dataset problem, this study utilizes the MobileNet which was trained with the ImageNet dataset. This study proposes two approaches. One is to extract features by the pixel-wise convolution and classify the features with SVM. The other is to tune the weights of the MobileNet by flexibly freezing layers. The experimental results with two public bark datasets, BarkTex and Trunk12, show that the proposed methods are effective in bark recognition. Especially the results of the flexible tunning method outperform state-of-the-art methods. In addition, it can be applied to mobile devices because the MobileNet is compact compared to other deep learning models.
