Similar to an LSTM layer, but the input transformations and recurrent transformations are both convolutional.

Arguments

object

Object to compose the layer with. A tensor, array, or sequential model.

filters

int, the dimension of the output space (the number of filters in the convolution).

kernel_size

int or tuple/list of 2 integers, specifying the size of the convolution window.

strides

int or tuple/list of 2 integers, specifying the stride length of the convolution. strides > 1 is incompatible with dilation_rate > 1.

padding

string, "valid" or "same" (case-insensitive). "valid" means no padding. "same" results in padding evenly to the left/right or up/down of the input such that output has the same height/width dimension as the input.

data_format

string, either "channels_last" or "channels_first". The ordering of the dimensions in the inputs. "channels_last" corresponds to inputs with shape (batch, steps, features) while "channels_first" corresponds to inputs with shape (batch, features, steps). 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

int or tuple/list of 2 integers, specifying the dilation rate to use for dilated convolution.

activation

Activation function to use. By default hyperbolic tangent activation function is applied (tanh(x)).

recurrent_activation

Activation function to use for the recurrent step.

use_bias

Boolean, whether the layer uses a bias vector.

kernel_initializer

Initializer for the kernel weights matrix, used for the linear transformation of the inputs.

recurrent_initializer

Initializer for the recurrent_kernel weights matrix, used for the linear transformation of the recurrent state.

bias_initializer

Initializer for the bias vector.

unit_forget_bias

Boolean. If TRUE, add 1 to the bias of the forget gate at initialization. Use in combination with bias_initializer="zeros". This is recommended in Jozefowicz et al., 2015

kernel_regularizer

Regularizer function applied to the kernel weights matrix.

recurrent_regularizer

Regularizer function applied to the recurrent_kernel weights matrix.

bias_regularizer

Regularizer function applied to the bias vector.

activity_regularizer

Regularizer function applied to.

kernel_constraint

Constraint function applied to the kernel weights matrix.

recurrent_constraint

Constraint function applied to the recurrent_kernel weights matrix.

bias_constraint

Constraint function applied to the bias vector.

dropout

Float between 0 and 1. Fraction of the units to drop for the linear transformation of the inputs.

recurrent_dropout

Float between 0 and 1. Fraction of the units to drop for the linear transformation of the recurrent state.

seed

Random seed for dropout.

return_sequences

Boolean. Whether to return the last output in the output sequence, or the full sequence. Default: FALSE.

return_state

Boolean. Whether to return the last state in addition to the output. Default: FALSE.

go_backwards

Boolean (default: FALSE). If TRUE, process the input sequence backwards and return the reversed sequence.

stateful

Boolean (default FALSE). If TRUE, the last state for each sample at index i in a batch will be used as initial state for the sample of index i in the following batch.

...

For forward/backward compatability.

unroll

Boolean (default: FALSE). If TRUE, the network will be unrolled, else a symbolic loop will be used. Unrolling can speed-up a RNN, although it tends to be more memory-intensive. Unrolling is only suitable for short sequences.

Value

The return value depends on the value provided for the first argument. If object is:

  • a keras_model_sequential(), then the layer is added to the sequential model (which is modified in place). To enable piping, the sequential model is also returned, invisibly.

  • a keras_input(), then the output tensor from calling layer(input) is returned.

  • NULL or missing, then a Layer instance is returned.

Call Arguments

  • inputs: A 5D tensor.

  • mask: Binary tensor of shape (samples, timesteps) indicating whether a given timestep should be masked.

  • training: Python boolean indicating whether the layer should behave in training mode or in inference mode. This is only relevant if dropout or recurrent_dropout are set.

  • initial_state: List of initial state tensors to be passed to the first call of the cell.

Input Shape

  • If data_format='channels_first': 5D tensor with shape: (samples, time, channels, rows, cols)

  • If data_format='channels_last': 5D tensor with shape: (samples, time, rows, cols, channels)

Output Shape

  • If return_state: a list of tensors. The first tensor is the output. The remaining tensors are the last states, each 4D tensor with shape: (samples, filters, new_rows, new_cols) if data_format='channels_first' or shape: (samples, new_rows, new_cols, filters) if data_format='channels_last'. rows and cols values might have changed due to padding.

  • If return_sequences: 5D tensor with shape: (samples, timesteps, filters, new_rows, new_cols) if data_format='channels_first' or shape: (samples, timesteps, new_rows, new_cols, filters) if data_format='channels_last'.

  • Else, 4D tensor with shape: (samples, filters, new_rows, new_cols) if data_format='channels_first' or shape: (samples, new_rows, new_cols, filters) if data_format='channels_last'.
