Does the Inception Model have two softmax outputs?

Question

The Inception v3 model is shown in this image:

Answer 1

Section 4 of the paper you cite is about auxiliary classifiers. These are classifiers added to the lower levels of the network, that improve training by mitigating the vanishing gradients problem and speedup convergence. For running inference on a trained network, you should use the main classifier, called softmax:0 in the model, and NOT the auxiliary classifier, called auxiliary_softmax:0.
