  • Great intuitive explanation. However, one thing I don't get from your answer is why the reduction from 32x32 to 30x30 after the convolution layer. The division of pixels / pool_size ("window" size) is obvious and can't understand how I did not figured that out myself. The output of convolution layer is: IMG_HEIGHT - kernel_size + 1.

    Its been a long time since ive done this, so bear with me: If e.g. your base is 4x4, and your convolution layer is 3x3. Try drawing the different positions you can put your conv layer on top of the 4x4 base layer. There are 4 positions if im right. So your output of this operations are a 2x2 new layer. In other words, the convolution operation decreased the size of the base layer. A similar thing happens in my above example. Commented Jan 15, 2024 at 10:30
