NetPrepend

NetPrepend[net,layer]

prepends a layer or a net onto a NetChain, a layer or a NetGraph with one input port.

NetPrepend[net,"name"layer]

appends a layer with a given name.

NetPrepend[net,{layer1,layer2,…}]

prepends several layers or nets.

Details and Options

  • The output of the prepended layer must be compatible with the input of the first layer in the chain.
  • Any NetEncoder attached to the end of the chain will be removed.
  • NetPrepend[chain,layerspec,"Input"spec] can be used to specify a type for the input of the resulting chain, using the normal type specifications allowed by NetChain. The new port specification will replace any existing NetEncoder or type.
