Instantiates the Xception architecture.

Usage

application_xception(
  include_top = TRUE,
  weights = "imagenet",
  input_tensor = NULL,
  input_shape = NULL,
  pooling = NULL,
  classes = 1000L,
  classifier_activation = "softmax"
)

Arguments

include_top

whether to include the 3 fully-connected layers at the top of the network.

weights

one of NULL (random initialization), "imagenet" (pre-training on ImageNet), or the path to the weights file to be loaded.

input_tensor

optional Keras tensor (i.e. output of layers.Input()) to use as image input for the model.

input_shape

optional shape tuple, only to be specified if include_top is FALSE (otherwise the input shape has to be (299, 299, 3). It should have exactly 3 inputs channels, and width and height should be no smaller than 71. E.g. (150, 150, 3) would be one valid value.

pooling

Optional pooling mode for feature extraction when include_top is FALSE.

NULL means that the output of the model will be the 4D tensor output of the last convolutional block.
avg means that global average pooling will be applied to the output of the last convolutional block, and thus the output of the model will be a 2D tensor.
max means that global max pooling will be applied.

classes

optional number of classes to classify images into, only to be specified if include_top is TRUE, and if no weights argument is specified.

classifier_activation

A str or callable. The activation function to use on the "top" layer. Ignored unless include_top=TRUE. Set classifier_activation=NULL to return the logits of the "top" layer. When loading pretrained weights, classifier_activation can only be NULL or "softmax".

Value

A model instance.
