# init(width:height:featureChannelCount:batchSize:dataType:)

Creates a tensor descriptor with the width and height, number of feature channels, batch size, and data type you specify.

## Declaration

```swift
convenience init?(width: Int, height: Int, featureChannelCount: Int, batchSize: Int, dataType: MLCDataType)
```

## Parameters

- `width`: The tensor width.
- `height`: The tensor height.
- `featureChannelCount`: The number of feature channels.
- `batchSize`: The tensor batch size.
- `dataType`: The tensor data type.

## Discussion

Discussion This initializer provides a convenient way for you to configure NCHW tensors used by convolutional layers.
