Learnable Parameters in Convolutional Neural Networks Explained

In this lesson, we'll learn about learnable parameters within a convolutional neural network and how to determine how many of these parameters exists per-layer and in the network as a whole.

The total number of learnable parameters influences the size of the network on disk and in-memory. We can generally use the number of learnable parameters as a rough measure of model complexity, with more complex models having a larger number of learnable parameters.
