ScaleNet
ScaleNet
**ScaleNet**, or a **Scale Aggregation Network**, is a type of convolutional neural network which learns a neuron allocation for aggregating multi-scale information in different building blocks of a deep network. The most informative output neurons in each block are preserved while others are discarded, and thus neurons for multiple scales are competitively and adaptively allocated. The scale aggregation (SA) block concatenates feature maps at a wide range of scales. Feature maps for each scale are generated by a stack of downsampling, [convolution](https://paperswithcode.com/method/convolution) and upsampling operations.
