Random Erasing data augmentation technique.

Source: R/layers-preprocessing.R
layer_random_erasing.Rd

Random Erasing is a data augmentation method where random patches of an image are erased (replaced by a constant value or noise) during training to improve generalization.

Usage

layer_random_erasing(
  object,
  factor = 1,
  scale = list(0.02, 0.33),
  fill_value = NULL,
  value_range = list(0L, 255L),
  seed = NULL,
  data_format = NULL,
  ...
)

Arguments

object

Object to compose the layer with. A tensor, array, or sequential model.

factor

A single float or a tuple of two floats. factor controls the probability of applying the transformation.

  • factor=0.0 ensures no erasing is applied.

  • factor=1.0 means erasing is always applied.

  • If a tuple (min, max) is provided, a probability value is sampled between min and max for each image.

  • If a single float is provided, a probability is sampled between 0.0 and the given float. Default is 1.0.

scale

A tuple of two floats representing the aspect ratio range of the erased patch. This defines the width-to-height ratio of the patch to be erased. It can help control the rw shape of the erased region. Default is (0.02, 0.33).

fill_value

A value to fill the erased region with. This can be set to a constant value or None to sample a random value from a normal distribution. Default is None.

value_range

the range of values the incoming images will have. Represented as a two-number tuple written [low, high]. This is typically either [0, 1] or [0, 255] depending on how your preprocessing pipeline is set up.

seed

Integer. Used to create a random seed.

data_format

string, either "channels_last" or "channels_first". The ordering of the dimensions in the inputs. "channels_last" corresponds to inputs with shape (batch, height, width, channels) while "channels_first" corresponds to inputs with shape (batch, channels, height, width). It defaults to the image_data_format value found in your Keras config file at ~/.keras/keras.json. If you never set it, then it will be "channels_last".

...

For forward/backward compatability.
