Measuring Pre-Activation Residual-Branch Responses on CIFAR-10

To examine how network layers transform intermediate representations on CIFAR-10, capture the output of each 3×33 \times 3 convolution immediately after batch normalization and before subsequent ReLU activation or element-wise addition. For each layer, summarize the strength of these pre-activation responses using their standard deviation, enabling comparisons across layers and architectures. In a residual network, the measurement describes the learned residual branch F(x)\mathcal{F}(\mathbf{x}) rather than the combined block output F(x)+x\mathcal{F}(\mathbf{x}) + \mathbf{x}.
