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

Here's how to use non-standard activation functions to customize your neural network system.

The device implements one of the most commonly used activation functions in neural network training called a rectified linear unit.

Modeled on the human brain, neural networks are one of the most common styles of machine learning. Get started with the basic design and concepts of artificial neural networks.

Hidden Layers: Intermediate layers where data transformation occurs through weighted connections and activation functions. Neural networks can have multiple hidden layers in deep learning models.

Training neural networks to perform tasks, such as recognizing images or navigating self-driving cars, could one day require less computing power and hardware thanks to a new artificial neuron device.

A new study of healthy older adults shows that just one session of exercise increased activation in the brain circuits associated with memory -- including the hippocampus -- which shrinks with age ...
