Do Better ImageNet Models Transfer Better?

Finding: better ImageNet architectures tend to work better on other datasets too. Surprise: pretraining on ImageNet dataset sometimes doesn't help very much.

How Many Samples are Needed to Learn a Convolutional Neural Network

Article questioning fact that CNNs use a more compact representation than the Fully-connected Neural Network (FNN) and thus require fewer training samples to accurately estimate their parameters.
