一、CNN的核心思想与生物启示
卷积神经网络（Convolutional Neural Networks）是受生物视觉皮层启发的深度学习架构，专门用于处理网格状拓扑数据（如图像、视频、音频）。其核心创新在于：
-
局部感受野：神经元只响应局部区域（模拟视觉皮层）
-
权值共享：相同特征检测器扫描整个输入
-
空间下采样：逐步降低空间分辨率
与传统全连接网络相比，CNN参数量减少90%以上，更适合图像处理
二、CNN核心组件详解
1. 卷积层（Convolutional Layer）
import torch
import torch.nn as nn# 创建卷积层示例
conv_layer = nn.Conv2d(in_channels=3, # 输入通道数 (RGB图像为3)out_channels=64, # 输出通道数/卷积核数量kernel_size=3, # 卷积核尺寸 (3x3)stride=1, # 滑动步长padding=1 # 边界填充
)# 输入数据 (batch_size, channels, height, width)
input = torch.randn(32, 3, 224, 224) # 32张224x224的RGB图像# 前向传播
output = conv_layer(input) # 输出尺寸: [32, 64, 224, 224]卷积操作数学表达：
(f * I)(x,y) = \sum_{i=-k}^{k}\sum_{j=-k}^{k} I(x+i, y+j) \cdot f(i,j)2. 激活函数（非线性变换）
| 函数 | 公式 | 特点 |
|---|---|---|
| ReLU | $f(x) = \max(0,x)$ | 计算高效，缓解梯度消失 |
| Leaky ReLU | $f(x) = \begin{cases} x & x>0 \ 0.01x & \text{否则} \end{cases}$ | 解决"神经元死亡"问题 |
| Swish | $f(x) = x \cdot \sigma(\beta x)$ | 平滑非线性，性能更优 |
# ReLU激活示例
relu = nn.ReLU(inplace=True)
output = relu(output)3. 池化层（Pooling Layer）
# 最大池化示例
pool_layer = nn.MaxPool2d(kernel_size=2, # 池化窗口大小stride=2 # 滑动步长
)output = pool_layer(output) # 输出尺寸: [32, 64, 112, 112]池化类型对比：
| 类型 | 操作 | 特点 |
|---|---|---|
| 最大池化 | 取区域最大值 | 保留纹理特征 |
| 平均池化 | 取区域平均值 | 平滑特征响应 |
| 全局平均池化 | 取整个特征图平均值 | 替代全连接层 |
4. 全连接层（Fully Connected Layer）
# 展平操作
flatten = nn.Flatten()# 全连接层
fc_layer = nn.Linear(in_features=64*7*7, out_features=1000)# 典型结构
output = flatten(output) # [32, 64*7*7]
output = fc_layer(output) # [32, 1000]三、经典CNN架构演进
