isequal

Check equality of deep learning layer graphs or networks

Since R2021a

Syntax

tf = isequal(net1,net2)

tf = isequal(net1,...,netN)

Description

tf = isequal(net1,net2) checks the equality of SeriesNetwork, DAGNetwork, LayerGraph, or dlnetwork objects net1 and net2.

• If both inputs are SeriesNetwork or DAGNetwork objects, or one of each, then the function returns 1 (true) when the properties and architectures match. Otherwise, the function returns 0 (false).

• If both inputs are LayerGraph objects, then the function returns 1 (true) when the properties and architectures match. Otherwise, the function returns 0 (false).

• If both inputs are dlnetwork objects, then the function returns 1 (true) when the properties and architectures match. Otherwise, the function returns 0 (false).

• For other combinations, the function returns 0 (false).

The isequal function can operate on arrays of networks and layer graphs. In this case, the function performs element-wise comparison.

tf = isequal(net1,...,netN) checks equality of the N networks or layer graphs net1, …, netN.

Examples

Check if Layer Graphs are Equal

Create two instances of SqueezeNet layer graphs.

lgraph1 = squeezenet('Weights','none');
lgraph2 = squeezenet('Weights','none');

Check if the layer graphs are equal using the isequal function.

tf = isequal(lgraph1,lgraph2)

tf = logical
   1

Check if Networks are Equal

Create two instances of a pretrained SqueezeNet network.

net1 = squeezenet;
net2 = squeezenet;

Check if the networks are equal using the isequal function.

tf = isequal(net1,net2)

tf = logical
   1

Input Arguments

net1,net2 — Network or layer graph

SeriesNetwork object | DAGNetwork object | dlnetwork object | LayerGraph object

Network or layer graph, specified as a SeriesNetwork, DAGNetwork, dlnetwork , or LayerGraph object.
