In a 2-D convolutional neural network (CNN), what does the number of kernels define?

Each convolutional kernel produces one output channel (feature map); therefore the number of kernels equals the number of output feature maps.

1) Relevant knowledge points and concepts
- A 2-D convolutional layer applies multiple kernels (filters) over the input volume.  
- Each kernel has shape (kH, kW, C_in) where C_in is the number of input channels.  
- Sliding a kernel over spatial positions computes a dot product at each location, producing a 2-D map. That map is one output channel (feature map).  
- The layer’s output shape is (N, H_out, W_out) where N is the number of kernels (sometimes called out_channels).

2) Step-by-step reasoning
- You choose N kernels for the layer.  
- For each kernel i (i = 1..N): convolve it with the full input (all input channels) → produce a 2-D activation map (feature map) for kernel i.  
- Stack these N maps along the channel dimension → produce N feature maps (the layer’s output channels).

3) Calculations and intermediate steps (example)
- Example: input 32×32 RGB image: H=32, W=32, C_in=3. Kernel size K=3, number of kernels N=64, stride=1, no padding (valid).  
- Each kernel shape: 3×3×3 => 27 weights + bias.  
- For one spatial position: one dot product = 27 multiplications + sums → single scalar.  
- H_out = H − K + 1 = 30, W_out = W − K + 1 = 30.  
- One kernel produces 30×30 = 900 scalars → one 30×30 feature map.  
- All kernels produce N × H_out × W_out = 64 × 30 × 30 values, i.e., 64 feature maps.

4) Why the correct answer is correct
- By definition each learned kernel extracts one map of activations across spatial locations; thus the number of kernels directly sets how many distinct feature maps (output channels) the layer produces.

5) Why the other options are incorrect
- “输入像素的数量 / The number of input pixels”: kernel count does not change the number of input pixels.  
- “层数 / The number of layers”: kernel count is per layer and does not indicate how many layers exist.  
- “输出值的数量 / The number of output values”: kernel count alone is not the total number of output values (that depends also on H_out and W_out). Kernel count equals the number of output channels (feature maps), not the full scalar count.

6) Conclusion
The number of kernels defines the number of feature maps (output channels). This matches the provided correct answer: 特征图的数量 The number of feature maps.
