Questions and answers designated by tag: Activation Function

What is the formula for an activation function such as Rectified Linear Unit to introduce non-linearity into the model?

Thursday, 23 May 2024 by EITCA Academy

The Rectified Linear Unit (ReLU) is one of the most commonly used activation functions in deep learning, particularly within convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for image recognition tasks. The primary purpose of an activation function is to introduce non-linearity into the model, which is essential for the network to learn from the data and perform complex

What is a neural network?

Wednesday, 10 January 2024 by Daniel Forment

A neural network is a computational model inspired by the structure and functioning of the human brain. It is a fundamental component of artificial intelligence, specifically in the field of machine learning. Neural networks are designed to process and interpret complex patterns and relationships in data, allowing them to make predictions, recognize patterns, and solve

How does the activation function in a neural network determine whether a neuron "fires" or not?

Sunday, 13 August 2023 by EITCA Academy

The activation function in a neural network plays a important role in determining whether a neuron "fires" or not. It is a mathematical function that takes the weighted sum of inputs to the neuron and produces an output. This output is then used to determine the activation state of the neuron, which in turn affects

What is the activation function used in the deep neural network model for multi-class classification problems?

Tuesday, 08 August 2023 by EITCA Academy

In the field of deep learning for multi-class classification problems, the activation function used in the deep neural network model plays a important role in determining the output of each neuron and ultimately the overall performance of the model. The choice of activation function can greatly impact the model's ability to learn complex patterns and

How is the number of biases in the output layer determined in a neural network model?

Tuesday, 08 August 2023 by EITCA Academy

In a neural network model, the number of biases in the output layer is determined by the number of neurons in the output layer. Each neuron in the output layer requires a bias term to be added to its weighted sum of inputs in order to introduce a level of flexibility and control in the

What is the activation function used in the final layer of the neural network for breast cancer classification?

Saturday, 05 August 2023 by EITCA Academy

The activation function used in the final layer of the neural network for breast cancer classification is typically the sigmoid function. The sigmoid function is a non-linear activation function that maps the input values to a range between 0 and 1. It is commonly used in binary classification tasks where the goal is to classify

How does the activation function "relu" filter out values in a neural network?

Saturday, 05 August 2023 by EITCA Academy

The activation function "relu" plays a important role in filtering out values in a neural network in the field of artificial intelligence and deep learning. "Relu" stands for Rectified Linear Unit, and it is one of the most commonly used activation functions due to its simplicity and effectiveness. The relu function filters out values by
