Usage Guide¶

This guide shows how to use ContextualConv1d and ContextualConv2d in your PyTorch models.

🔧 1D Example (no context)¶

from contextual_conv import ContextualConv1d
import torch

layer = ContextualConv1d(in_channels=4, out_channels=8, kernel_size=3, padding=1)
x = torch.randn(2, 4, 32)
out = layer(x)  # shape: (2, 8, 32)

🧠 1D Example with context (bias only)¶

layer = ContextualConv1d(in_channels=4, out_channels=8, kernel_size=3, padding=1, context_dim=10)
c = torch.randn(2, 10)
out = layer(x, c)  # shape: (2, 8, 32)

🧠 1D with MLP for context¶

layer = ContextualConv1d(
    in_channels=4,
    out_channels=8,
    kernel_size=3,
    padding=1,
    context_dim=10,
    h_dim=16
)
out = layer(x, c)

🖼️ 2D Example with context¶

from contextual_conv import ContextualConv2d

conv = ContextualConv2d(
    in_channels=3,
    out_channels=6,
    kernel_size=3,
    padding=1,
    context_dim=10,
    h_dim=32
)

x = torch.randn(2, 3, 16, 16)
c = torch.randn(2, 10)
out = conv(x, c)  # shape: (2, 6, 16, 16)

✅ Notes¶

If context_dim is set, the context vector c is passed through a linear layer or MLP.
The result is used as a per-output-channel bias, added uniformly across all locations.
You can disable the MLP by omitting h_dim.
