Resolution-Invariant Image Classification based on Fourier Neural Operators

2 Apr 2023  ·  Samira Kabri, Tim Roith, Daniel Tenbrinck, Martin Burger ·

In this paper we investigate the use of Fourier Neural Operators (FNOs) for image classification in comparison to standard Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). Neural operators are a discretization-invariant generalization of neural networks to approximate operators between infinite dimensional function spaces. FNOs - which are neural operators with a specific parametrization - have been applied successfully in the context of parametric PDEs. We derive the FNO architecture as an example for continuous and Fr\'echet-differentiable neural operators on Lebesgue spaces. We further show how CNNs can be converted into FNOs and vice versa and propose an interpolation-equivariant adaptation of the architecture.
