NetArrayLayer

NetArrayLayer[]

represents a layer that has no input and produces as output a constant array.

NetArrayLayer[opts]

includes options for the initial value of the array or output size.

Details and Options

  • NetArrayLayer is typically used in a NetGraph and allows a learned array to be used as an ordinary input to other layers. Without NetArrayLayer, all layer inputs must ultimately be derived from inputs to the entire net.
  • The array stored by NetArrayLayer will be learned during training.
  • The constant array stored in NetArrayLayer has the same dimensions as the output of NetArrayLayer.
  • NetArrayLayer["Array"->array] can be used to give an explicit value of the constant array.
  • When the constant array is not explicitly specified or is given as Automatic, it is added automatically when NetInitialize or NetTrain is used.
  • NetArrayLayer["Output"->{d1,d2,…}] can be used to fix the output size of the layer, which also fixes the size of the constant array.
  • The following training parameter can also be included:
  • LearningRateMultipliersAutomaticlearning rate multipliers for the array
  • NetArrayLayer[…][] returns the constant array.
  • The constant array can also be obtained from an initialized NetArrayLayer using NetExtract[layer,"Array"].
  • Options[NetArrayLayer] gives the list of default options to construct the layer. Options[NetArrayLayer[…]] gives the list of default options to evaluate the layer on some data.
  • Information[NetArrayLayer[…]] gives a report about the layer.
  • Information[NetArrayLayer[…],prop] gives the value of the property prop of NetArrayLayer[…]. Possible properties are the same as for NetGraph.
