池化层max_pool中两种paddding操作

max_pool()中padding参数有两种模式valid和same模式。
Tensorflow的padding和卷积层一样也有padding操作，两种不同的操作输出的结果有区别。

函数原型max_pool(value, ksize, strides, padding, data_format="NHWC", name=None)

这一解释除了tf.nn.max_pool，还适用于tf.nn.conv2d和tf.layer.*下的相关函数

if padding = "SAME": 
    output_spatial_shape[i] = ceil(input_spatial_shape[i] / strides[i])
if padding = "VALID": 
    output_spatial_shape[i] = ceil((input_spatial_shape[i] - (window_shape[i] - 1) * dilation_rate[i]) / strides[i])

也就是说：

“VALID” 模式，在剩余行列数小于池化窗口大小时，将最右边和最下面的列或行抛弃，只保留有效值;
“SAME” 模式则是在剩余行列数不足时补充0来满足池化窗口的大小，保持窗口被池化区域相同；
所以输出尺寸不是池化窗口的整数倍时，same模式的输出要比valid的大。

#我们来看看函数的定义

    #'same'方法输出尺寸直接为 input_size/strides_size

        ceil((input_spatial_shape[i] - (window_shape[i] - 1) * dilation_rate[i])
             / strides[i]).
	#'valid'方法输出尺寸为 [input_size-（pooling_win_size-1）*1]/stride_size

用例子解释一下：
1.

#"VALID" = without padding:
   inputs:         1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  10 11 (12 13)
                  |________________|                dropped
                                 |_________________|
#"SAME" = with zero padding:
               pad|                                      |pad
   inputs:      0 |1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  10 11 12 13|0  0
               |________________|
                              |_________________|
                                             |________________|

2.

x = tf.constant([[1., 2., 3.],
                 [4., 5., 6.]])

x = tf.reshape(x, [1, 2, 3, 1])  				#先转为张量输入

valid_pad = tf.nn.max_pool(x, [1, 2, 2, 1], [1, 2, 2, 1], padding='VALID')   
same_pad = tf.nn.max_pool(x, [1, 2, 2, 1], [1, 2, 2, 1], padding='SAME')

valid_pad.get_shape() == [1, 1, 1, 1]  # valid_pad is [5.]       #3,6那一列被丢掉了
|1 2    ...3|
|4 5    ...6|

 

same_pad.get_shape() == [1, 1, 2, 1]   # same_pad is  [5., 6.]      #加上了第四列，第二个窗口的max是6
|1 2 3 0|
|4 5 6 0|     ->|5,6|
