摘要：In this paper, we propose a CNN(Convolutional neural networks) and RNN(recurrent neural networks) mixed model for image classification, the proposed network, called CNN-RNN model. Image data can be viewed as two-dimensional wave data, and convolution calculation is a filtering process. It can filter non-critical band information in an image, leaving behind important features of image information. The CNN-RNN model can use the RNN to Calculate the Dependency and Continuity Features of the Intermediate Layer Output of the CNN Model, connect the characteristics of these middle tiers to the final full-connection network for classification prediction, which will result in better classification accuracy. At the same time, in order to satisfy the restriction of the length of the input sequence by the RNN model and prevent the gradient explosion or gradient disappearing in the network, this paper combines the wavelet transform (WT) method in the Fourier transform to filter the input data. We will test the proposed CNN-RNN model on a widely-used datasets CIFAR-10. The results prove the proposed method has a better classification effect than the original CNN network, and that further investigation is needed.
