DEVICE AND METHOD OF DIGITAL IMAGE CONTENT RECOGNITION, TRAINING OF THE SAME

Device for and computer implemented method of image content recognition and of training a prototypical neural network for image content recognition, the method comprising collecting (302) a first set of digital images from a database, wherein the first set of digital images is sampled from digital images assigned to a many shot class; creating (304) a first training set comprising the collected first set of digital images; training (306) in a first training stage a first artificial neural network comprising a first feature extractor and a first classifier for classifying digital images using the first training set; and in a second training stage collecting (308) first parameters of the trained first feature extractor, collecting (310) second parameters of the trained classifier, determining (312) third parameters of a second feature extractor of a second artificial neural network depending on the first parameters, determining (314) fourth parameters of a second classifier for classifying digital images of the second artificial neural network, wherein the second artificial neural network is or comprises the prototypical neural network.
