What is a scattering network?
Abstract—Scattering networks are a class of designed Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) with fixed weights. We argue they can serve as generic representations for modelling images.
What is wavelet scattering?
Wavelet scattering (or scatter transform) generates a representation that's invariant to data rotation/translation and stable to deformations of your data. Uninformative variations in your data are discarded — e.g. an audio sample time-shifted by various amounts.
