Abstract
A computing system is disclosed including a convolutional neural configured to receive an input that describes a facial image and generate a facial object recognition output that describes one or more facial feature locations with respect to the facial image. The convolutional neural network can include a plurality of convolutional blocks. At least one of the convolutional blocks can include one or more separable convolutional layers configured to apply a depthwise convolution and a pointwise convolution during processing of an input to generate an output. The depthwise convolution can be applied with a kernel size that is greater than 3×3. At least one of the convolutional blocks can include a residual shortcut connection from its input to its output.
