How to transform fully connected layer into convolution layer?

3 views (last 30 days)
I want to replace a fully connected layer with a convolution layer, but I don't know how to complete it. I reference help document, and find a function named "transposedConv2dLayer", but I don't believe "cropping" is helpful. So if somebody could give me any suggest, thanks a lot.

Hello QU,
Can you please tell me if you're using a Series or DAG network? The steps to replace a layer is different for these 2 network types.
For a Series Network, follow steps here -->
For DAG follow this -->
Also, is the motivation behind replacing the FC layer with a conv2d is to make the network deeper?

The link for the Series Network does not seem applicable. The fully connected layer in that example is replaced by another fully connected layer, not a conv2d layer. Moreover, the new layer is not equivalent to the old one.
