Does Max pooling affect backpropagation?
I have once come up with a question “how do we do back propagation through max-pooling layer?”. The short answer is “there is no gradient with respect to non-maximum values”.
Does pooling have parameters?
Pooling layers does not have parameters which affect the back propagation.
What does Max pooling do?
Maximum pooling, or max pooling, is a pooling operation that calculates the maximum, or largest, value in each patch of each feature map. The results are down sampled or pooled feature maps that highlight the most present feature in the patch, not the average presence of the feature in the case of average pooling.

How does max pooling in a neural network work?
Further the max is locally linear with slope 1, with respect to the input that actually achieves the max. Thus, the gradient from the next layer is passed back to only that neuron which achieved the max. All other neurons get zero gradient.
Do you need to update W in max pooling?
Normally, there are two derivatives — dWx/dx =W’ (W transpose) and dWx/dW = x’ — required in the backpropagation algorithm to update the previous and the current layer’s weights or biases, respectively. However, in the case of max pooling, there is no need to update W.
How are gradients passed back through max pooling layers?
Thus, the gradient from the next layer is passed back to only that neuron which achieved the max. All other neurons get zero gradient. So in your example, δ i l would be a vector of all zeros, except that the i ∗ t h location will get a values { δ j l + 1 } where i ∗ = a r g m a x i ( z i l)
