pix2pixHDGlobalGenerator

Create pix2pixHD global generator network

Since R2021a

Description

net = pix2pixHDGlobalGenerator(inputSize) creates a pix2pixHD generator network for input of size inputSize. For more information about the network architecture, see pix2pixHD Generator Network.

This function requires Deep Learning Toolbox™.

example

net = pix2pixHDGlobalGenerator(inputSize,Name=Value) modifies properties of the pix2pixHD network using name-value arguments.

Input Arguments

collapse all

Network input size, specified as a 3-element vector of positive integers. inputSize has the form [H W C], where H is the height, W is the width, and C is the number of channels.

Example: [28 28 3] specifies an input size of 28-by-28 pixels for a 3-channel image.

Name-Value Arguments

collapse all

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: net = pix2pixHDGlobalGenerator(inputSize,NumFiltersInFirstBlock=32) creates a network with 32 filters in the first convolution layer.

Before R2021a, use commas to separate each name and value, and enclose Name in quotes.

Example: net = pix2pixHDGlobalGenerator(inputSize,"NumFiltersInFirstBlock",32) creates a network with 32 filters in the first convolution layer.

Number of downsampling blocks in the network encoder module, specified as a positive integer. In total, the network downsamples the input by a factor of 2^NumDownsamplingBlocks. The decoder module consists of the same number of upsampling blocks.

Number of filters in the first convolution layer, specified as a positive even integer.

Number of output channels, specified as a positive integer.

Filter size in the first and last convolution layers of the network, specified as a positive odd integer or 2-element vector of positive odd integers of the form [height width]. When you specify the filter size as a scalar, the filter has equal height and width.

Filter size in intermediate convolution layers, specified as a positive odd integer or 2-element vector of positive odd integers of the form [height width]. The intermediate convolution layers are the convolution layers excluding the first and last convolution layer. When you specify the filter size as a scalar, the filter has identical height and width. Typical values are between 3 and 7.

Number of residual blocks, specified as a positive integer.

Style of padding used in the network, specified as one of these values.

Method used to upsample activations, specified as one of these values:

Data Types: char | string

Weight initialization used in convolution layers, specified as "glorot", "he", "narrow-normal", or a function handle. For more information, see Specify Custom Weight Initialization Function (Deep Learning Toolbox).

Activation function to use in the network, specified as one of these values. For more information and a list of available layers, see Activation Layers (Deep Learning Toolbox).

  • "relu" — Use a reluLayer (Deep Learning Toolbox)

  • "leakyRelu" — Use a leakyReluLayer (Deep Learning Toolbox) with a scale factor of 0.2

  • "elu" — Use an eluLayer (Deep Learning Toolbox)

  • A layer object

Activation function after the final convolution layer, specified as one of these values. For more information and a list of available layers, see Activation Layers (Deep Learning Toolbox).

  • "tanh" — Use a tanhLayer (Deep Learning Toolbox)

  • "sigmoid" — Use a sigmoidLayer (Deep Learning Toolbox)

  • "softmax" — Use a softmaxLayer (Deep Learning Toolbox)

  • "none" — Do not use a final activation layer

  • A layer object

Normalization operation to use after each convolution, specified as one of these values. For more information and a list of available layers, see Normalization Layers (Deep Learning Toolbox).

Probability of dropout, specified as a number in the range [0, 1]. If you specify a value of 0, then the network does not include dropout layers. If you specify a value greater than 0, then the network includes a dropoutLayer (Deep Learning Toolbox) in each residual block.

Prefix to all layer names in the network, specified as a string or character vector.
