create_dl_layer_denseT_create_dl_layer_denseCreateDlLayerDenseCreateDlLayerDensecreate_dl_layer_dense (Operator)

Name

create_dl_layer_denseT_create_dl_layer_denseCreateDlLayerDenseCreateDlLayerDensecreate_dl_layer_dense — Create a dense layer.

Signature

Description

The operator create_dl_layer_densecreate_dl_layer_denseCreateDlLayerDenseCreateDlLayerDensecreate_dl_layer_dense creates a dense or fully connected layer (sometimes also called gemm) with NumOutNumOutNumOutnumOutnum_out output neurons whose handle is returned in DLLayerDenseDLLayerDenseDLLayerDenseDLLayerDensedllayer_dense.

The parameter DLLayerInputDLLayerInputDLLayerInputDLLayerInputdllayer_input determines the feeding input layer and expects the layer handle as value.

The parameter LayerNameLayerNameLayerNamelayerNamelayer_name sets an individual layer name. Note that if creating a model using create_dl_modelcreate_dl_modelCreateDlModelCreateDlModelcreate_dl_model each layer of the created network must have a unique name.

The following generic parameters GenParamNameGenParamNameGenParamNamegenParamNamegen_param_name and the corresponding values GenParamValueGenParamValueGenParamValuegenParamValuegen_param_value are supported:
