3 years later and computers now outperform humans on Imagenet. While we still have a lot of work ahead, it shows how fast things can change in the exponential world of computers.


Can you please give a link showing an exponential improvement between 2012 and 2015?


http://image-net.org/challenges/LSVRC/2012/results.html One team at 15%

http://www.image-net.org/challenges/LSVRC/2014/results Most teams are below 15%, GooLeNet is at 6%

http://www.image-net.org/challenges/LSVRC/2014/results Microsoft is now below 5%

http://arxiv.org/pdf/1502.03167.pdf Google is now below 5%

I can't really argue whether that's exponential or not, but it amazing progress in a short amount of time.
