Question: Title: ValueError: cannot reshape array of size X into shape ( Y , Z , . . . ) in convolution layer output in Python

Title:
ValueError: cannot reshape array of size X into shape (Y, Z,...) in convolution layer output in Python
Description:
I'm implementing a forward pass for a convolutional layer in Python. The convolution appears to run, but when reshaping the output for visualization in the test script, I get the error:
sql
Copy code
ValueError: cannot reshape array of size 30 into shape (3,5,5)
This occurs when the test script attempts to reshape the convolution output data into the expected format in the display_results() function.
I cannot modify the test script (including the display_results() function), which expects the convolution output to be of a certain shape. Specifically, the output needs to be reshaped to (output['channel'], output['height'], output['width']). However, the number of elements in the array doesn't match the expected size.
Convolution Layer Function:
Heres the relevant part of my conv_layer_forward() function:
python
Copy code
def conv_layer_forward(input_data, layer, param):
h_in = input_data['height']
w_in = input_data['width']
c = input_data['channel']
batch_size = input_data['batch_size']
k = layer['k'] # kernel size
pad = layer['pad'] # padding
stride = layer['stride'] # stride
num = layer['num'] # number of filters (output channels)
h_out =(h_in +2* pad - k)// stride +1
w_out =(w_in +2* pad - k)// stride +1
output ={
'height': h_out,
'width': w_out,
'channel': num,
'batch_size': batch_size,
'data': np.zeros((batch_size, h_out, w_out, num))
}
try:
# Perform convolution using im2col (details omitted)
input_cols = im2col_conv_batch(input_data['data'], k, pad, stride)
W_cols = param['w'].reshape(num,-1)
conv_result = np.dot(W_cols, input_cols)
conv_result += param['b'].reshape(-1,1)
conv_result = conv_result.reshape(num, h_out, w_out, batch_size)
output['data']= np.transpose(conv_result, (3,1,2,0)) # Shape: (batch_size, h_out, w_out, num)
except Exception as e:
print(f"Error during convolution: {str(e)}")
return output
Test Script (I CANNOT MODIFY):
The test script runs several tests and calls the conv_layer_forward() function, then tries to visualize the output. Here's the part where the error occurs:
python
Copy code
img1= output['data'][:,batch].reshape(output['channel'], output['height'], output['width'])
Expected Behavior:
The output data should be of shape (batch_size, h_out, w_out, num) and reshaped into (num, h_out, w_out) for each batch during visualization.
Problem:
The error indicates that the size of the array doesn't match the expected shape when reshaped. The number of elements in output['data'][:,batch] does not match the required shape (output['channel'], output['height'], output['width']). Specifically, it seems like the convolution output is smaller than expected.
Question:
How can I fix my conv_layer_forward() function to ensure that the output data matches the expected shape and size required by the test script? Is there something wrong with how I calculate or reshape the convolution result?
Notes:
I cannot modify the test script or display_results().
The padding, stride, and kernel size seem to be correct based on the provided input dimensions.
The output dimensions are calculated using the standard convolution formula.
Thanks in advance!
