Convolution and Pooling Layers

Convolution and Pooling Layers

Convolution Layer

The convolution layer applies filters to an image to detect useful features such as edges, corners, and textures.

As more convolution layers are added, the model learns increasingly complex image patterns.

Pooling Layer

Pooling reduces the size of the feature maps while keeping the important information.

The most common pooling method is Max Pooling, which selects the highest value from a small region.

Pooling helps:

  • Reduce computation
  • Improve training speed
  • Reduce overfitting
