DLDL-MatConvNet

This repository is a MatConvNet re-implementation of "Deep Label Distribution Learning with Label Ambiguity", Bin-Bin Gao, Chao Xing, Chen-Wei Xie, Jianxin Wu, Xin Geng. The paper is accepted at [IEEE Trans. Image Processing (TIP), 2017].

You can train Deep ConvNets from Scratch or a pre-trained model on your datasets with limited samples and ambiguous labels. This repo is created by Bin-Bin Gao.
