maxPooling1dLayer

1-D max pooling layer

Since R2021b

Description

A 1-D max pooling layer performs downsampling by dividing the input into 1-D pooling regions, then computing the maximum of each region.

The dimension that the layer pools over depends on the layer input:

For time series and vector sequence input (data with three dimensions corresponding to the "C" (channel), "B" (batch), and "T" (time) dimensions), the layer pools over the "T" (time) dimension.
For 1-D image input (data with three dimensions corresponding to the "S" (spatial), "C" (channel), and "B" (batch) dimensions), the layer pools over the "S" (spatial) dimension.
For 1-D image sequence input (data with four dimensions corresponding to the "S" (spatial), "C" (channel), "B" (batch), and "T" (time) dimensions), the layer pools over the "S" (spatial) dimension.

Input Arguments

`poolSize` — Width of pooling regions
positive integer

Width of the pooling regions, specified as a positive integer.

The width of the pooling regions poolSize must be greater than or equal to the padding dimensions PaddingSize.

Name-Value Arguments

Specify optional pairs of arguments as Name1=Value1,...,NameN=ValueN, where Name is the argument name and Value is the corresponding value. Name-value arguments must appear after other arguments, but the order of the pairs does not matter.

Example: maxPooling1dLayer(3,Stride=2) creates a 1-D max pooling layer with a pool size of 3 and stride 2.

`Stride` — Step size for traversing input
`1` (default) | positive integer

Step size for traversing the input, specified as a positive integer.

`Padding` — Padding to apply to input
`[0 0]` (default) | `"same"` | nonnegative integer | vector of nonnegative integers

Padding to apply to the input, specified as one of the following:

"same" — Apply padding such that the output size is ceil(inputSize/stride), where inputSize is the length of the input. When Stride is 1, the output is the same size as the input.
Nonnegative integer sz — Add padding of size sz to both ends of the input.
Vector [l r] of nonnegative integers — Add padding of size l to the left and r to the right of the input.

Example: Padding=[2 1] adds padding of size 2 to the left and size 1 to the right.

`Name` — Layer name
`""` (default) | character vector | string scalar

Layer name, specified as a character vector or a string scalar. For Layer array input, the trainnet and dlnetwork functions automatically assign names to layers with the name "".

The MaxPooling1DLayer object stores the Name property as a character vector.

Data Types: char | string

`'manual'` (default) | `'same'`

This property is read-only.

Method to determine padding size, specified as one of the following:

'manual' – Pad using the integer or vector specified by Padding.
'same' – Apply padding such that the output size is ceil(inputSize/Stride), where inputSize is the length of the input. When Stride is 1, the output is the same as the input.

To specify the layer padding, use the Padding name-value argument.

Data Types: char

Layer

`Name` — Layer name
`""` (default) | character vector | string scalar

1-D Max Pooling Layer

A 1-D max pooling layer performs downsampling by dividing the input into 1-D pooling regions, then computing the maximum of each region. The layer pools the input by moving the pooling regions along the input horizontally.

The dimension that the layer pools over depends on the layer input:

For time series and vector sequence input (data with three dimensions corresponding to the "C" (channel), "B" (batch), and "T" (time) dimensions), the layer pools over the "T" (time) dimension.
For 1-D image input (data with three dimensions corresponding to the "S" (spatial), "C" (channel), and "B" (batch) dimensions), the layer pools over the "S" (spatial) dimension.
For 1-D image sequence input (data with four dimensions corresponding to the "S" (spatial), "C" (channel), "B" (batch), and "T" (time) dimensions), the layer pools over the "S" (spatial) dimension.

Layer Input and Output Formats

Layers in a layer array or layer graph pass data to subsequent layers as formatted dlarray objects. The format of a dlarray object is a string of characters in which each character describes the corresponding dimension of the data. The formats consist of one or more of these characters:

"S" — Spatial
"C" — Channel
"B" — Batch
"T" — Time
"U" — Unspecified

For example, you can describe 2-D image data that is represented as a 4-D array, where the first two dimensions correspond to the spatial dimensions of the images, the third dimension corresponds to the channels of the images, and the fourth dimension corresponds to the batch dimension, as having the format "SSCB" (spatial, spatial, channel, batch).

You can interact with these dlarray objects in automatic differentiation workflows, such as those for developing a custom layer, using a functionLayer object, or using the forward and predict functions with dlnetwork objects.

This table shows the supported input formats of MaxPooling1DLayer objects and the corresponding output format. If the software passes the output of the layer to a custom layer that does not inherit from the nnet.layer.Formattable class, or a FunctionLayer object with the Formattable property set to 0 (false), then the layer receives an unformatted dlarray object with dimensions ordered according to the formats in this table. The formats listed here are only a subset. The layer may support additional formats such as formats with additional "S" (spatial) or "U" (unspecified) dimensions.

Input Format	Output Format
`"SCB"` (spatial, channel, batch)	`"SCB"` (spatial, channel, batch)
`"CBT"` (channel, batch, time)	`"CB"` (channel, batch)
`"SCBT"` (spatial, channel, batch, time)	`"SCBT"` (spatial, channel, batch, time)
`"SB"` (spatial, batch)	`"SB"` (spatial, batch)

In dlnetwork objects, MaxPooling1DLayer objects also support these input and output format combinations.

Input Format	Output Format
`"SC"` (spatial, channel)	`"SC"` (spatial, channel)
`"CT"` (channel, time)	`"CT"` (channel, time)
`"SCT"` (spatial, channel, time)	`"SCT"` (spatial, channel, time)
`"BT"` (batch, time)	`"BT"` (batch, time)
`"SBT"` (spatial, batch, time)	`"SBT"` (spatial, batch, time)
