Error in conv_forward function

Course Q&A Deep Learning Specialization Convolutional Neural Networks

Hello.

I got this error in exercise 3

Z’s mean =
nan

IndexError Traceback (most recent call last)
in
8 Z, cache_conv = conv_forward(A_prev, W, b, hparameters)
9 print(“Z’s mean =\n”, np.mean(Z))
—> 10 print(“Z[0,2,1] =\n”, Z[0, 2, 1])
11 print(“cache_conv[0][1][2][3] =\n”, cache_conv[0][1][2][3])
12

IndexError: index 2 is out of bounds for axis 1 with size 0

Can anyone help me to solve the problem?

Hi Lilit.Ghalachyan,

The error indicates that you do not calculate Z correctly, so its mean cannot be calculated and it cannot be indexed into.

So you need to look at your code and see whether you initialize Z and calculate its value correctly.

I wrote for Z
Z = np.zeros((m, n_H, n_W, n_C))

and also

for c in range(n_C):
a_slice_prev =a_prev_pad[vert_start:vert_end,horiz_start:horiz_end,:]
weights=W[:,:,:,c]
biases =b[:,:,:,c]
Z[i, h, w, c] = conv_single_step(a_slice_prev, weights, biases)

Can not find the mistake.

I also made some corrections and got this error.

Z’s mean =
0.2999719807951914
Z[0,2,1] =
[ 3.07229898 -2.60921766 -1.63280904 5.71720329 1.18903119 0.90610057

I have just solved my problem, thank you.
