1. of, relating to, or involving convolution; characterized by a winding or coiled structure or process
Usage: technical; mathematics and computer science
2. relating to a mathematical operation in which one function is integrated with another after one has been reversed and shifted
Usage: technical; signal processing and neural networks

Examples

• The convolutional structure of the brain's cortex allows for complex information processing.
• Convolutional neural networks are widely used in image recognition tasks.
• The convolutional operation combines two signals to produce a third signal.
• Deep learning models often employ convolutional layers to extract features from images.
• The convolutional approach simplifies the computation of certain mathematical problems.
