Flatten layer

[source]

Flatten class

keras.layers.Flatten(data_format=None, **kwargs)

Flattens the input. Does not affect the batch size.

Note: If inputs are shaped (batch,) without a feature axis, then flattening adds an extra channel dimension and output shape is (batch, 1).

Arguments

  • data_format: A string, one of "channels_last" (default) or "channels_first". The ordering of the dimensions in the inputs. "channels_last" corresponds to inputs with shape (batch, ..., channels) while "channels_first" corresponds to inputs with shape (batch, channels, ...). When unspecified, uses image_data_format value found in your Keras config file at ~/.keras/keras.json (if exists). Defaults to "channels_last".

Example

>>> x = keras.Input(shape=(10, 64))
>>> y = keras.layers.Flatten()(x)
>>> y.shape
(None, 640)
