Should the input to the include_top ignore the input to the last denseblock? about densenet HOT 5 CLOSED

Thats not a skip connection. That is a pixel wise classification layer (where each pixel will be convolved over using a point wise convolution operation to classify that pixel).

from densenet.

I mean the input of the pixel wise classification layer, so call 'x_up', concatenate the input of its corresponding denseblock. It is different from the paper, where the input to the classification layer should not concatenate the input of the denseblock. And following your code, it should be:
l = concatenate(concat_list[1:], axis=concat_axis)
Just like input to others denseblock.

So I think I may miss something. Could you give me some guidance?

See the last portion. I can't find the mistake, and since it has the exact same number of parameters as the paper (9.4 million), I can't seem to guess where the error is.

from densenet.

The parameter is similar to the paper's.
And the diagram of your model-plot seems to be like the attachment.
The diagram in the Figure 1 of the paper did not have the skip connection in the decompression path.
so I think there may be misunderstanding.

I'll look into it. If you can figure out of where to correct it, please submit a PR.
