It usually doesn&amp;#x27;t matter all that much whether you take the next-to-last or the third from last, it all performs pretty similarly. If you&amp;#x27;re doing transfer to a task that&amp;#x27;s very dissimilar from the pretraining task, I think it can sometimes be helpful to take the first dense layer after the convolutional layers instead, but I can&amp;#x27;t seem to find the paper where I remember reading that, so take it with a grain of salt. &amp;gt; When doing quick iterations, I assume the images in the data set have been run through…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1403.6382/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.

We&amp;#x27;re embedding images by feeding them through a deep neural net and using the activations of an intermediate layer as an embedding. You can read https://arxiv.org/abs/1403.6382 to learn more about this technique if you&amp;#x27;re interested. Our launch model is trained on ImageNet, which has enough variety that it usually generalizes well even when your dataset is very dissimilar to the input distribution. We&amp;#x27;re planning to train on a wider variety of image data in the future, but we wanted to get something into people&amp;#x27;s hands quickly.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1403.6382/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.
