Defined in tensorflow/python/keras/layers/convolutional.py.

Transposed convolution layer (sometimes called Deconvolution).

The need for transposed convolutions generally arises from the desire to use a transformation going in the opposite direction of a normal convolution, i.e., from something that has the shape of the output of some convolution to something that has the shape of its input while maintaining a connectivity pattern that is compatible with said convolution.

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".

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_rate value != 1.
  • padding: one of "valid" or "same" (case-insensitive).
  • output_padding: An integer or tuple/list of 2 integers, specifying the amount of padding along the height and width of the output tensor. Can be a single integer to specify the same value for all spatial dimensions. The amount of output padding along a given dimension must be lower than the stride along that same dimension. If set to None (default), the output shape is inferred.
  • data_format: A string, one of channels_last (default) or channels_first. The ordering of the dimensions in the inputs. channels_last corresponds to inputs with shape (batch, height, width, channels) while channels_first corresponds to inputs with shape (batch, channels, height, width). It defaults to the image_data_format value found in your Keras config file at ~/.keras/keras.json. If you never set it, then it will be "channels_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_rate value != 1 is incompatible with specifying any stride value != 1.
  • activation: Activation function to use. If you don't specify anything, no activation is applied (ie. "linear" activation: a(x) = x).
  • use_bias: Boolean, whether the layer uses a bias vector.
  • kernel_initializer: Initializer for the kernel weights matrix.
  • bias_initializer: Initializer for the bias vector.
  • kernel_regularizer: Regularizer function applied to the kernel weights matrix.
  • bias_regularizer: Regularizer function applied to the bias vector.
  • activity_regularizer: Regularizer function applied to the output of the layer (its "activation")..
  • kernel_constraint: Constraint function applied to the kernel matrix.
  • bias_constraint: Constraint function applied to the bias vector.

Input shape: 4D tensor with shape: (batch, channels, rows, cols) if data_format='channels_first' or 4D tensor with shape: (batch, rows, cols, channels) if data_format='channels_last'.

Output shape: 4D tensor with shape: (batch, filters, new_rows, new_cols) if data_format='channels_first' or 4D tensor with shape: (batch, new_rows, new_cols, filters) if data_format='channels_last'. rows and cols values might have changed due to padding.

tf.keras.layers.Conv2DTranspose.build

build(input_shape)

Creates the variables of the layer (optional, for subclass implementers).

This is a method that implementers of subclasses of Layer or Model can override if they need a state-creation step in-between layer instantiation and layer call.

This is typically used to create the weights of Layer subclasses.

Arguments:

  • input_shape: Instance of TensorShape, or list of instances of TensorShape if the layer expects a list of inputs (one instance per input).

tf.keras.layers.Conv2DTranspose.compute_mask

compute_mask(
    inputs,
    mask=None
)

Computes an output mask tensor.

Arguments:

  • inputs: Tensor or list of tensors.
  • mask: Tensor or list of tensors.

Returns:

None or a tensor (or list of tensors, one per output tensor of the layer).

tf.keras.layers.Conv2DTranspose.compute_output_shape

compute_output_shape(input_shape)

Computes the output shape of the layer.

Assumes that the layer will be built to match that input shape provided.

Arguments:

  • input_shape: Shape tuple (tuple of integers) or list of shape tuples (one per output tensor of the layer). Shape tuples can include None for free dimensions, instead of an integer.

Returns:

An input shape tuple.

tf.keras.layers.Conv2DTranspose.count_params

count_params()

Count the total number of scalars composing the weights.

Returns:

An integer count.

Raises:

  • ValueError: if the layer isn't yet built (in which case its weights aren't yet defined).

tf.keras.layers.Conv2DTranspose.from_config

from_config(
    cls,
    config
)

Creates a layer from its config.

This method is the reverse of get_config, capable of instantiating the same layer from the config dictionary. It does not handle layer connectivity (handled by Network), nor weights (handled by set_weights).

Arguments:

  • config: A Python dictionary, typically the output of get_config.

Returns:

A layer instance.

tf.keras.layers.Conv2DTranspose.get_config

get_config()

Returns the config of the layer.

A layer config is a Python dictionary (serializable) containing the configuration of a layer. The same layer can be reinstantiated later (without its trained weights) from this configuration.

The config of a layer does not include connectivity information, nor the layer class name. These are handled by Network (one layer of abstraction above).

Returns:

Python dictionary.
