scale
(x, y, axis=1)[source]¶ Elementwise product with broadcasting.
Computes a elementwise product of two input variables, with the shape of the latter variable broadcasted to match the shape of the former.
axis
is the first axis of the first variable along which the second variable is applied.The term “broadcasting” here comes from Caffe’s scale layer so the “broadcasting” with the following arguments:
x : 100 x 3 x 40 x 60 y : 3 x 40 axis : 1
is equivalent to the following numpy broadcasting:
x : 100 x 3 x 40 x 60 y : 1 x 3 x 40 x 1
Note that how the
axis
indicates to which axis ofx
we applyy
