A novel study challenges the conventional wisdom that convolutional neural network (CNN) filters become increasingly specialized as they move deeper. The research examines depthwise separable CNNs (DS-CNNs) across various domains and datasets, revealing that deep filters maintain their generality. Transfer learning experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of frozen filters from models trained on different datasets, which can be further improved by incorporating knowledge from larger datasets. This study provides new insights into generalization in neural networks, particularly for DS-CNNs, with significant implications for transfer learning and model design.

This paper is all about how deep learning works. It used to think that when you go deeper, your filters become more specialized, like a superpower for each specific thing you’re looking at. But no! This study found out that even in really deep layers, the filters still work on lots of different things. They took some models that were trained on one dataset and tested them on another dataset. And guess what? The models did just fine, even though they weren’t specifically designed for those new datasets.
