What is a convolutional neural network?

Each layer in a neural network configuration represents a unit of hidden units. When layers are stacked together, they represent a deep neural network.

Available layers


Convolution1D

[source]

1D convolution layer. Expects input activations of shape [minibatch,channels,sequenceLength]


Convolution2D

2D convolution layer

For “NCDHW” (also known as ‘channels first’ format), the data storage order is: [batchSize,inputChannels, inputDepth, inputHeight, inputWidth]. For “NDHWC” (‘channels last’ format), the data is storedin the order of: [batchSize, inputDepth, inputHeight, inputWidth, inputChannels].

Deconvolution2D

[source]

2D deconvolution layer configuration

Deconvolutions are also known as transpose convolutions or fractionally strided convolutions. In essence,deconvolutions swap forward and backward pass with regular 2D convolutions.

See the paper by Matt Zeiler for details: http://www.matthewzeiler.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/cvpr2010.pdf
