    What technique allows CNNs to process images of varying sizes?

    • Image scaling

    • Feature mapping

    • Transfer learning

    • Spatial pooling

    Correct Answer
    A. Spatial pooling
    Explanation
    Spatial pooling, also known as subsampling or downsampling, is a technique used in Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) to reduce the spatial dimensions (height and width) of feature maps while preserving important features. This allows CNNs to handle input images of varying sizes more flexibly by creating a consistent feature size for further layers. Pooling operations like max pooling and average pooling help retain essential patterns while discarding unnecessary spatial information.
