Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Using the deep learning model to realize tongue image-based disease location recognition and focus on solving two problems: 1. The ability of the general convolution network to model detailed regional tongue features is weak; 2. Ignoring the group relationship between convolution channels, which caused the high redundancy of the model.
