Abstract

A method and an image processing entity for applying a convolutional neural network to an image are disclosed. The image processing entity processes the image while using the convolutional kernel to render a feature map, whereby a second feature map size of the feature map is greater than a first feature map size of the feature maps with which the feature kernel was trained. Furthermore, the image processing entity repeatedly applies the feature kernel to the feature map in a stepwise manner, wherein the feature kernel was trained to identify the feature based on the feature maps of the first feature maps, wherein the feature kernel has the first feature map size.
