Merged-GHCIDR: Geometrical Approach to Reduce Image Data

The computational resources required to train a model have been increasing since the inception of deep networks. Training neural networks on massive datasets have become a challenging and time-consuming task. So, there arises a need to reduce the dataset without compromising the accuracy. In this paper, we present novel variations of an earlier approach called reduction through homogeneous clustering for reducing dataset size. The proposed methods are based on the idea of partitioning the dataset into homogeneous clusters and selecting images that contribute significantly to the accuracy. We propose two variations: Geometrical Homogeneous Clustering for Image Data Reduction (GHCIDR) and Merged-GHCIDR upon the baseline algorithm - Reduction through Homogeneous Clustering (RHC) to achieve better accuracy and training time. The intuition behind GHCIDR involves selecting data points by cluster weights and geometrical distribution of the training set. Merged-GHCIDR involves merging clusters having the same labels using complete linkage clustering. We used three deep learning models- Fully Connected Networks (FCN), VGG1, and VGG16. We experimented with the two variants on four datasets- MNIST, CIFAR10, Fashion-MNIST, and Tiny-Imagenet. Merged-GHCIDR with the same percentage reduction as RHC showed an increase of 2.8%, 8.9%, 7.6% and 3.5% accuracy on MNIST, Fashion-MNIST, CIFAR10, and Tiny-Imagenet, respectively.
