Deep Learning CNN Convolutional Neural Networks with Python - MaxPooling Exercise

The video tutorial demonstrates how to perform max pooling on images using Python. It begins by introducing the necessary libraries, Numpy and SK Image, and setting up the coding environment. The instructor then creates a Numpy array and prints it to verify its contents. The main focus is on using the block reduce function from the SK Image library to apply max pooling, which reduces the size of the image by retaining the maximum values in each block. This process is explained in detail, highlighting its importance in image processing to manage image size and retain essential information.

What is the purpose of using the Max pooling function in image processing?

Describe the process of how the Max pooling function selects values from the input array.

How does the Max pooling function handle cases where all values in a block are equal?

What are the dimensions of the output matrix after applying Max pooling with a 2x2 block and a stride of 2?

Explain how the Max pooling function reduces the size of an image.
