Implement a function to calculate the parameter count ratio between grouped convolutions and standard convolutions. Grouped convolutions are a technique used in ConvNext architectures to reduce computational costs by splitting input and output channels into G groups, where each group operates on a subset of the channels.
This process can be broken down into the following steps:
This technique is widely used in deep learning models for image classification tasks.
K_W=3, K_H=3, C_in=256, C_out=256, G=4
0.25
Standard: 3×3×256×256 = 589,824. Grouped (G=4): 4×(3×3×64×64) = 147,456. Ratio = 147,456/589,824 = 0.25 = 1/G
