Method Detail

backward

public void backward(double[] pattern)

Description copied from class: Layer

Reverse transfer function of the component.

Parameters:

pattern - input pattern on which to apply the transfer function

See Also:

(double[])

forward

public void forward(double[] pattern)

Description copied from class: Layer

Transfer function to recall a result on a trained net

Parameters:

pattern - input pattern to which to apply the rtransfer function

See Also:

(double[])

getLearner

public Learner getLearner()

Deprecated. - Used only for backward compatibility

Description copied from class: Layer

Returns the appropriate Learner object for this class depending on the Monitor.learningMode property value

Specified by:

getLearner in interface Learnable

Overrides:

getLearner in class Layer

Returns:

the Learner object if applicable, otherwise null

See Also:

Learnable.getLearner()

setFlatSpotConstant

public void setFlatSpotConstant(double aConstant)

Sets the constant to overcome the flat spot problem. This problem is described in: S.E. Fahlman, "An emperical study of learning speed in backpropagation with good scaling properties," Dept. Comput. Sci. Carnegie Mellon Univ., Pittsburgh, PA, Tech. Rep., CMU-CS-88-162, 1988. Setting this constant to 0 (default value), the derivative of the sigmoid function is unchanged (normal function). An good value for this constant might be 0.1.

Parameters:

aConstant -

getFlatSpotConstant

public double getFlatSpotConstant()

Gets the flat spot constant.

Returns:

the flat spot constant.
