Contribution grade

Computer vision · Scoped scientific or research-capability contribution

Reference score85,000Provisional editorial estimate of this exact contribution; its grade is assessed separately.

What changed

A large convolutional network trained with GPUs demonstrated strong large-scale image classification, using architectural and training choices that made deep learning practical at this scale.

Scientific scope

A large convolutional network trained with GPUs demonstrated strong large-scale image classification, using architectural and training choices that made deep learning practical at this scale. Scope limitation: This is a human-developed method with benchmark evidence, not an autonomous scientific discovery. The proceedings landing abstract and PDF differ in numerical details; this entry uses the PDF and avoids mixing their reported scores.
