Max Pooling

  • Maximum within window and writes result to output
    • Downsamples image
    • More non-linearity
  • Doesn’t remove important information
    • Max value is the good bit
  • No parameters

Design Parameters

  • Size of input image
    • 252 x 252 x 1 x n
  • Padding
  • Kernel size
    • 3 x 3 x 1
    • Doesn’t need to be odd
      • 2 x 2
  • Stride
    • Typically n
      • For n x n kernel size
    • Sometimes 4 x 4 in early layers
      • 16 times less data
        • Rapid downsample
  • Size of computable output
    • 250 x 250 x 1 x n
      • Depends on padding and striding
