In this paper we propose a model to study feature representation of combined Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and Block Group Sparse Coding (BGSC). Firstly, CNN is used to extract low-level features from raw RGB- D images directly by applying unsupervised algorithm. Then, BGSC is used to obtain higher feature representation for classification by incorporating both the group structure for low-level features and the block structure for the dictionary in subsequent learning processes. Experimental results show that the CNN-BGSC approach has higher accuracy on a household RGB-D object dataset by linear predictive classifier than using Convolutional and Recursive Neural Networks (CNN-RNN), Group Sparse Coding (GSC), and Sparse Representation base Classification (SRC).}, issn = {2617-8699}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.3993/jfbi12201413}, url = {http://global-sci.org/intro/article_detail/jfbi/4814.html} }
