Pointwise Convolution is a type of convolution that uses a 1x1 kernel: a kernel that iterates through every single point. This kernel has a depth of however many channels the input image has. It can be used in conjunction with depthwise convolutions to produce an efficient class of convolutions known as depthwise-separable convolutions.

Papers per year the archive tags with this method, by the paper's archive date (1,306 dated). Bars are counts, not a trend claim.

Components: the archive holds no method-to-method composition, so PwC's Components table cannot be rebuilt; the Papers list carries no Results column for the same reason (the archive does not join its leaderboard rows to method tags).
