This is really a conceptual question -- I've been working on this for sometime now, but haven't found a great way to go about solving my problem. I have a hexagonal image with hexagonal binning/pixels, with b/w intensity values for each pixel and am trying to feed this into a deep autoencoder, but it seems as if these use square or rectangular images (with square pixels). Note this image is given as a 1-D array, with appropriate x,y coordinates
I've thought and looked into number of ideas to handle this situation, and am looking for some feedback or info that can point me in the right direction.
I guess the generalized question is --
how do I deal with feeding an image into a Neural Network when the image is both non-rectangular shaped and non-rectangular pixeled?
Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks!
I don't see any problems with resampling it with a regular square grid, so that it becomes a proper 2D image. You would likely need to do it in any case to keep the network size reasonably small.
