Claim 0:
1. A system for analyzing images, comprising:
a processor configured to receive an image;
an analysis device configured to apply the received image to a machine learning network and classify one or more features in the received image, the machine learning network configured to propagate image data through a plurality of convolutional layers, each convolutional layer of the plurality of convolutional layers including a plurality of filter channels, the plurality of filter channels configured to apply a plurality of filters to the image data and output a feature map for each filter, the machine learning network including a bottleneck layer configured to recognize an image feature based on a shape of an image component, the bottleneck layer configured to prevent encoding of texture and configured to apply a single filter related to the shape of the image component to each feature map; and
an output device configured to output characterization data that includes a classification of the one or more features.
