Improving Convolutional Neural Networks’ Accuracy in Noisy Environments Using k-Nearest Neighbors

We present a hybrid approach to improve the accuracy of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) without retraining the model. The proposed architecture replaces the softmax layer by a k-Nearest Neighbor (kNN) algorithm for inference. Although this is a common technique in transfer learning, we apply it...
