从海量数据中提取特征进行目标识别是一项具有挑战性的任务。卷积神经网络可以用来应对挑战，但它往往需要大量的计算资源。本文提出了一种计算效率高的卷积模块SdcBlock，并在此基础上引入了用于目标识别任务的卷积网络SdcNet。在该模块中，采用优化的连续深度卷积，并在适当的数据管理支持下，生成包含高密度和更多种类特征信息的向量。超参数可以很容易地调整，以适应不同计算限制下的各种任务，而不会显著影响性能。实验结果表明，SdcNet在CIFAR-10中仅用55M次错误就达到了5.60%的误码率，在103M次错误的中等容量下，误码率进一步降低到5.24%。验证了SdcNet的预期计算效率。

英文摘要：
  Extracting features from a huge amount of data for object recognition is a challenging task. Convolution neural network can be used to meet the challenge, but it often requires a large number of computation resources. In this paper, a computation-efficient convolutional module, named SdcBlock, is proposed and based on it, the convolution network SdcNet is introduced for object recognition tasks. In the proposed module, optimized successive depthwise convolutions supported by appropriate data management is applied in order to generate vectors containing high density and more varieties of feature information. The hyperparameters can be easily adjusted to suit varieties of tasks under different computation restrictions without significantly jeopardizing the performance. The experiments have shown that SdcNet achieved an error rate of 5.60% in CIFAR-10 with only 55M Flops and also reduced further the error rate to 5.24% using a moderate volume of 103M Flops. The expected computation efficiency of the SdcNet has been confirmed.
