ActFunc function

Activation function of neuron

Evaluate activation function of a neuron

ActFunc(type = "sigmoid", ...)

Arguments

• type: character name of the activation function
• ...: extra arguments needed to calculate the functions

Returns

numeric output of the neuron

Examples

# Return the sigmoid activation function of a neuron
ActivationFunction <- ActFunc("sigmoid")
# Return the tanh activation function of a neuron
ActivationFunction <- ActFunc("tanh")
# Return the activation function of several layers of neurons
actfuncs <- c("linear","sigmoid","linear")
ActivationFunctions <- sapply(actfuncs, ActFunc)
