Hi everyone,
I have a question about one of my project and I hope you can help me to solve it  . I have to classify images across 15 classes and I get the image from a detector, then I use ResNet18 to classify them.
But I know that the original shape of the detected object (the cropped object from the detector) give me a lot of information about how should this cropped image should be classified.
Since I have to resize all image to (224x224) for ResNet18, I’m losing the shape information. So My question is, is it possible to add this information in the CNN ? How can I do it in Pytorch ? Is it a common practice in the Computer Vision Area ?
Thank you all
