caffe 学习笔记之NetParameter

caffe层的类型图有：

caffe官方对层的分类为：http://caffe.berkeleyvision.org/tutorial/layers.html
caffe Net在proto文件中的定义为：

message NetParameter {
  optional string name = 1; //net的名字
    // DEPRECATED. See InputParameter. The input blobs to the network.
  repeated string input = 3;
  // DEPRECATED. See InputParameter. The shape of the input blobs.
  repeated BlobShape input_shape = 8;
  repeated int32 input_dim = 4;
  optional bool force_backward = 5 [default = false];//层是否进行反向传播自动地取决于网络架构和学习状态，为真则强制进行反向传播计算
  optional NetState state = 6;
  optional bool debug_info = 7 [default = false];//在网络进行forward,backword,update时打印debugging信息
  // The layers that make up the net.  Each of their configurations, including connectivity and behavior, is specified as a LayerParameter.
  repeated LayerParameter layer = 100;  // ID 100 so layers are printed last.
