That sounds like it makes sense, right?<p>I beleive that most of the strength of VGG (and Inception) vs Alexnet is that it was able to learn the feature relationships better, not because it learnt better features.<p>VGG is pretty computational intensive, which is why Google concentrated so much on the computational complexity for GoogLeNet&#x2F;Inception&#x2F;ReCeption<p>So if you are just using the features directly then it would make sense to use whatever was the quickest to compute.
