What the Master Thesis is about/background to the problem to investigate
In many industrial applications deep learning solutions are sought after, but usually these applications come with some restrictions. For example:
Still there is a need for deep learning in these environments to overcome complexity of traditional image processing or to allow more people to configure solutions.
Can we overcome the performance of a network pre-trained traditionally on open-source datasets by leveraging self-supervised pre-training on the application images without annotations? Can we improve performance by incorporating images from the same domain, but outside the actual application scope?
Concretely we’d want the networks trained in this way to perform better on one or more downstream tasks. Such as, transfer learning to the actual small, annotated dataset, or as an all-purpose feature extractor for various tasks.
The master thesis work focuses on the following/example of research questions
Prerequisites
An interest and solid foundation in image processing and deep learning is beneficial to assess and collect methods that are relevant to investigate. Experience in self-supervision or training of deep neural networks in general is also welcomed. Some experience in python programming is required.
To analyze and make the correct conclusions a good basis in mathematics and statistics is needed.
