How to choose the number of filters in each Convolutional Layer?

Viewed 6596

When building a convolutional neural network, how do you determine the number of filters used in each convolutional layer. I know that there is no hard rule about the number of filters, but from your experience/ papers you have read, etc. is there an intuition/observation about number of filters used?

For instance (I'm just making this up as example):

  • use more/less filters as the network gets deeper.

  • use larger/smaller filter with large/small kernel size

  • If the object of interest in the image is large/small, use ...
