Exercise:Convolution and Pooling

If the original layout of <math>W</math> was correct, after flipping, it would be incorrect. For the layout to be correct after flipping, you will have to flip <tt>W</tt> before passing it into <tt>conv2</tt>, so that after MATLAB flips <tt>W</tt> in <tt>conv2</tt>, the layout will be correct. For <tt>conv2</tt>, this means reversing the rows and columns, which can be done with <tt>flipud</tt> and <tt>fliplr</tt>, as we did in the example code above. This is also true for the general convolution function <tt>convn</tt>, in which case MATLAB reverses every dimension. In general, you can flip the matrix <math>W</math> using the following code snippet, which works for <math>W</math> of any dimension
