James McCaffrey explains what neural network activation functions are and why they're necessary, and explores three common activation functions. Understanding neural network activation functions is ...

Neural networks have gone mainstream with a lot of heavy-duty — and heavy-weight — tools and libraries. What if you want to fit a network into a little computer? There’s tinn — the tiny neural network ...

Smooth developer experience is fundamental in artificial intelligence designs. Development toolkits can streamline the preparation of trained neural networks for edge and low-latency data-center ...

Neural networks are all the rage right now with increasing numbers of hackers, students, researchers, and businesses getting involved. The last resurgence was in the 80s and 90s, when there was little ...

Computer programming has never been easy. The first coders wrote programs out by hand, scrawling symbols onto graph paper before converting them into large stacks of punched cards that could be ...

Since the first neural recordings by Adrian in 1926 (ref. 1), it has become accepted wisdom that neurons communicate information with their firing rates—that is, the number of spikes within a certain ...

Understanding neural network activation functions is essential whether you use an existing software tool to perform neural network analysis of data or write custom neural network code. This article ...
