Why Asymmetrical block better than 3D CNN #132

Open Chuanyu-LD opened 2 years ago

Chuanyu-LD commented 2 years ago

Is there any theoretical explanation why Asymmetrical block better than a (sparse) 3D Convolution kernel? Normally 3D CNN should have more parameters and bigger receptive field

We refer to some works about the asymmetrical CNNs. Please check this paper.
