Deep Convolutional Neural Networks for plane identification on Satellite imagery by exploiting transfer learning with a different optimizer

Abstract

Object identification is on an available problem. Automating plane identification on Satellite imagery can be applied for activity and traffic patterns to monitoring airports, and including defense intelligence issues. This paper implements Deep Convolutional Neural Networks(CNN) to classify a plane in the planesnet dataset. Pre-trained model and transfer learning are deployed to overcome a limitation of computation resources by adding new top layer consists of a fully-connected layer and softmax layer to identify the new classes and re-train it. Besides, the experimental designs for testing an implementation of a pretrained model with some kinds of the optimizer to comparing a result. There are four types of optimizer. The first two are well-known optimizer namely Stochastic Gradient Descent optimizer and Adam Optimizer, while others are PowerSign and AddSign optimizer. PowerSign and AddSign optimizer are methods to minimize cost, which discover by using Recurrent neural network(RNN) and Reinforcement Learning. A result demonstrates that a plane identification on Satellite imagery can be achieved by implementing the pre-trained model and obtains an exceptional result with Adam optimizer.
