Table 1.

A list of parameters and hyperparameters in a convolutional neural network (CNN)

Parameters Hyperparameters
Convolution layer Kernels Kernel size, number of kernels, stride, padding, activation function
Pooling layer None Pooling method, filter size, stride, padding
Fully connected layer Weights Number of weights, activation function
Others Model architecture, optimizer, learning rate, loss function, mini-batch size, epochs, regularization, weight initialization, dataset splitting

Note that a parameter is a variable that is automatically optimized during the training process and a hyperparameter is a variable that needs to be set beforehand
