Abstract

The present disclosure provides a fine-grained image recognition method, an electronic device and a computer readable storage medium. The method comprises the steps of feature extraction, calculation of feature discriminant loss function, calculation of feature diversity loss function and calculation of model optimization loss function. The present disclosure comprehensively considers influences of factors such as a large intra-class difference, a small inter-class difference, and a great influence of background noise of the fine-grained image, and makes constrains such that the feature maps belonging to each class are discriminative and have the features of corresponding class, thus reducing the intra-class difference, decreasing the learning difficulty and learning better discriminative features. The constraints make the feature maps belonging to each class have a diversity, which increases the inter-class difference, achieves a good result, and is easy for practical deployment, thereby obviously improving the effect of multiple fine-grained image classification tasks.
