Neural Networks Convolutional Neural Network A neural network that scans images with small learned filters, reusing the same weights at every position to build up from edges to whole objects. Neural Networks Filter Synonym for kernel - the learnable weight matrix applied in convolutions to extract features. Neural Networks Kernel A small matrix of weights used in convolutional layers to detect specific features or patterns in input data. Neural Networks Stride The step size by which a convolutional filter or pooling window moves across the input. Neural Networks Padding Adding borders of zeros (or other values) around input to control output spatial dimensions in convolutions. Neural Networks Feature Map The output of applying a convolutional filter to an input, representing detected features at various spatial locations.
