VGG: Parameters of a Stack of Convolutions
Beginner
The problem, from first principles
The 3x3 stacking argument is about parameters as well as receptive field. Three 3x3 layers use 27 weights per channel pair, against 49 for a single 7x7 layer, for the same reach.
From theory to code
Implement stacked_params(n, c, k), the weight count of n convolutions with c channels each.
Constraints
- Ignore biases.
Hints
Hint 1
Multiply the number of layers, the kernel area and the square of the channel count.
