Dynamic Routing Between Capsules (NIPS 2017)

Capsule

"A capsule is a group of neurons whose activity vector represents the instantiation
parameters of a specific type of entity such as an object or an object part." - Nips 2017 Paper
  • Rather than a neuron outputting one value, each capsule outputs a vector
  • Each capsule then predicts the next layer's output
    • Done through multiplication with a learned transformation matrix

Capsule Routing

Todo
Add Procedure 1 from the figure
  • Here \(\displaystyle b_{i,j}\) is a routing weight for link between capsules in the current and next layer
