weight distribution for deconv layer about flownet2

[nikolausmayer]

This is just a quick guess, but "deconvolution" is implemented as transposed convolution (both layers directly use the cublasSgemm matrix multiplication).

I can't find any documentation on any of this, but maybe I'm just not looking hard enough.
There's probably some kind of transposition on the height and width parameters, right?
I'm having some difficulty getting reasonable values and it might be an explanation.

Thank you for the fast response.

I think it's common to implement these "deconvolutions" like that; see e.g. http://deeplearning.net/software/theano_versions/dev/tutorial/conv_arithmetic.html#transposed-convolution-arithmetic

You can check the Forward_cpu implementations in the conv and deconv layers, they should match the method in the link.

I can't tell you why exactly the parameters are structured differently; I can only assume that the transposed convolution plays a role.
