# MLCConvolutionLayer

A layer that applies a convolution over a signal.

```
class MLCConvolutionLayer
```

## Topics

### Creating Convolution Layers

[`init(weights:biases:descriptor:)`](/documentation/MLCompute/MLCConvolutionLayer/init(weights:biases:descriptor:))

Creates a convolution layer with the weights, biases, and descriptor you specify.

[`MLCConvolutionDescriptor`](/documentation/MLCompute/MLCConvolutionDescriptor)

A configuration object you use to create a convolution or fully connected layer.

### Inspecting Convolution Layers

[`descriptor`](/documentation/MLCompute/MLCConvolutionLayer/descriptor)

The configuration object you use to create the convolution layer.

[`weights`](/documentation/MLCompute/MLCConvolutionLayer/weights)

The weights tensor you use for the convolution layer.

[`biases`](/documentation/MLCompute/MLCConvolutionLayer/biases)

The biases tensor you use for the convolution layer.

[`weightsParameter`](/documentation/MLCompute/MLCConvolutionLayer/weightsParameter)

The weights tensor parameter you use for optimizer updates.

[`biasesParameter`](/documentation/MLCompute/MLCConvolutionLayer/biasesParameter)

The biases tensor parameter you use for optimizer updates.
