The document discusses scene recognition using convolutional neural networks. It begins with an abstract stating that scene recognition allows context for object recognition. While object recognition has improved due to large datasets and CNNs, scene recognition performance has not reached the same level of success. The document then discusses using a new scene-centric database called Places with over 7 million images to train CNNs for scene recognition. It establishes new state-of-the-art results on several scene datasets and allows visualization of network responses to show differences between object-centric and scene-centric representations.
