Abstract

Convolutional neural network (CNN), as one of the mainstream deep learning models, has achieved great success in image recognition. All neurons used in CNN are based on the McCulloch-Pitts model, which is over-simplified. To further improve CNN's learning capacity, this paper proposes a novel dendritic CNN (DCNN), which considers the nonlinear information processing functions of dendrites in a single neuron. The superiority of DCNN is confirmed based on four widely used image recognition tasks.
