Abstract

Convolutional neural networks (CNN) with deep architectures have paved way for immense opportunities where any complex mechanism can be undertaken and analyzed. The main drawback of all such architectures is their high number of trainable parameters. This increases its complexity and makes it difficult for real-time processing. We suggest in this paper a multi-channel-based design with shallow layers that can efficiently be trained and tested with less complexity as compared to the existing deep architectures. The performance is achieved by using the concept of a side channel with a main channel. The main concentration is to reduce the parameters to be trained as much as possible with slight compromise in the accuracy. Different values of filter sizes are given, and the output accuracy was observed for different cases. The proposed network was tested on a brain tumor-type database, and it successfully classified the images comprising of meningioma and pituitary tumor. The entire network performance is evaluated by comparing it with two deep architectures known as AlexNet and VGG16. The results show a huge drop in the number of parameters to be trained with much less execution time and comparable accuracy.
