tf.keras.layers.Conv2D
2D convolution layer (e.g. spatial convolution over images).
tf.keras.layers.Conv2D(
    filters, kernel_size, strides=(1, 1), padding='valid',
    data_format=None, dilation_rate=(1, 1), groups=1, activation=None,
    use_bias=True, kernel_initializer='glorot_uniform',
    bias_initializer='zeros', kernel_regularizer=None,
    bias_regularizer=None, activity_regularizer=None, kernel_constraint=None,
    bias_constraint=None, **kwargs
)
This layer creates a convolution kernel that is convolved with the layer input to produce a tensor of outputs. If use_bias is True, a bias vector is created and added to the outputs. Finally, if activation is not None, it is applied to the outputs as well.
When using this layer as the first layer in a model, provide the keyword argument input_shape (tuple of integers, does not include the sample axis), e.g. input_shape=(128, 128, 3) for 128x128 RGB pictures in data_format="channels_last".
Examples:
# The inputs are 28x28 RGB images with `channels_last` and the batch
# size is 4.
input_shape = (4, 28, 28, 3)
x = tf.random.normal(input_shape)
y = tf.keras.layers.Conv2D(
2, 3, activation='relu', input_shape=input_shape[1:])(x)
print(y.shape)
(4, 26, 26, 2)
# With `dilation_rate` as 2.
input_shape = (4, 28, 28, 3)
x = tf.random.normal(input_shape)
y = tf.keras.layers.Conv2D(
2, 3, activation='relu', dilation_rate=2, input_shape=input_shape[1:])(x)
print(y.shape)
(4, 24, 24, 2)
# With `padding` as "same".
input_shape = (4, 28, 28, 3)
x = tf.random.normal(input_shape)
y = tf.keras.layers.Conv2D(
2, 3, activation='relu', padding="same", input_shape=input_shape[1:])(x)
print(y.shape)
(4, 28, 28, 2)
# With extended batch shape [4, 7]:
input_shape = (4, 7, 28, 28, 3)
x = tf.random.normal(input_shape)
y = tf.keras.layers.Conv2D(
2, 3, activation='relu', input_shape=input_shape[2:])(x)
print(y.shape)
(4, 7, 26, 26, 2)
| Arguments | |
|---|---|
| filters | Integer, the dimensionality of the output space (i.e. the number of output filters in the convolution). | 
| kernel_size | An integer or tuple/list of 2 integers, specifying the height and width of the 2D convolution window. Can be a single integer to specify the same value for all spatial dimensions. | 
| strides | An integer or tuple/list of 2 integers, specifying the strides of the convolution along the height and width. Can be a single integer to specify the same value for all spatial dimensions. Specifying any stride value != 1 is incompatible with specifying any dilation_ratevalue != 1. | 
| padding | one of "valid"or"same"(case-insensitive)."valid"means no padding."same"results in padding evenly to the left/right or up/down of the input such that output has the same height/width dimension as the input. | 
| data_format | A string, one of channels_last(default) orchannels_first. The ordering of the dimensions in the inputs.channels_lastcorresponds to inputs with shape(batch_size, height, width, channels)whilechannels_firstcorresponds to inputs with shape(batch_size, channels, height, width). It defaults to theimage_data_formatvalue found in your Keras config file at~/.keras/keras.json. If you never set it, then it will bechannels_last. | 
| dilation_rate | an integer or tuple/list of 2 integers, specifying the dilation rate to use for dilated convolution. Can be a single integer to specify the same value for all spatial dimensions. Currently, specifying any dilation_ratevalue != 1 is incompatible with specifying any stride value != 1. | 
| groups | A positive integer specifying the number of groups in which the input is split along the channel axis. Each group is convolved separately with filters / groupsfilters. The output is the concatenation of all thegroupsresults along the channel axis. Input channels andfiltersmust both be divisible bygroups. | 
| activation | Activation function to use. If you don't specify anything, no activation is applied (see keras.activations). | 
| use_bias | Boolean, whether the layer uses a bias vector. | 
| kernel_initializer | Initializer for the kernelweights matrix (seekeras.initializers). | 
| bias_initializer | Initializer for the bias vector (see keras.initializers). | 
| kernel_regularizer | Regularizer function applied to the kernelweights matrix (seekeras.regularizers). | 
| bias_regularizer | Regularizer function applied to the bias vector (see keras.regularizers). | 
| activity_regularizer | Regularizer function applied to the output of the layer (its "activation") (see keras.regularizers). | 
| kernel_constraint | Constraint function applied to the kernel matrix (see keras.constraints). | 
| bias_constraint | Constraint function applied to the bias vector (see keras.constraints). | 
Input shape:
4+D tensor with shape: batch_shape + (channels, rows, cols) if data_format='channels_first' or 4+D tensor with shape: batch_shape + (rows, cols, channels) if data_format='channels_last'.
Output shape:
4+D tensor with shape: batch_shape + (filters, new_rows, new_cols) if data_format='channels_first' or 4+D tensor with shape: batch_shape + (new_rows, new_cols, filters) if data_format='channels_last'. rows and cols values might have changed due to padding.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| A tensor of rank 4+ representing activation(conv2d(inputs, kernel) + bias). | 
| Raises | |
|---|---|
| ValueError | if paddingis"causal". | 
| ValueError | when both strides > 1anddilation_rate > 1. |
