# DL Surveyception: a survey of overviews, reviews and surveys in deep learning for computer vision, time-series and others [Summary of slides](https://imgur.com/a/02pZTKh) ## Introduction In order to catch up with the progress of the field, I did a meta-survey, a survey of surveys, in different areas of deep learning. It allows for understanding the main challenges and trends in particular areas. ## Methodology I found the following papers by using the following keywords on Google, Google Scholar, Microsoft Academic, SemanticScholar, and others were found through connections on [Connected Papers](https://www.connectedpapers.com/) or other websites. I divide them into papers before 2020, and since 2020. The former includes 14 papers, while the latter includes 15, for a total of 29 papers. For all the papers I list the title, the date it was last updated (for most Arxiv papers), the number of citations (estimate of how impactful/useful it's been for others), the number of pages (how much content does it pack), and the first author (just to get familiar with some big names in the field). The classification in this section is relatively arbitrary, since the original purpose of this was to do a survey on GANs but then I expanded it to other topics. However, just for reference, the idea is that the blue DL/CV represented more general-purpose surveys, the green AS meant application-specific where it focused on a particular area or application, and the purple GAN represented general papers related to GANs. <figure> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/vrlMyaE.png" alt="Surveys Before 2020"> <figcaption style="align: left; text-align:center;">Surveys before 2020.</figcaption> </figure> <figure> <img src=" https://i.imgur.com/e84uHyg.png" alt="Surveys Since 2020"> <figcaption style="align: left; text-align:center;">Surveys since 2020.</figcaption> </figure> ## Surveyception I'll try to group up similar reviews and list them here, along with one or two reviews that I found particularly informative, or helpful, for any reason. I'll link the topic in the tables to the slide in the album. Note: these slides are definitely not for everyone; they're extremely information dense.
