Method Detail

getGradientBias

public abstract double getGradientBias(double[] currentGradientOuts,
                                       int j,
                                       double aPreviousGradient)

Computes the gradient value for a bias.

Parameters:

currentGradientOuts - the back propagated gradients.

j - the index of the bias.

aPreviousGradient - a gradient value calculated by a previous gradient extender.

getGradientWeight

public abstract double getGradientWeight(double[] currentInps,
                                         int j,
                                         double[] currentPattern,
                                         int k,
                                         double aPreviousGradient)

Computes the gradient value for a weight.

Parameters:

currentInps - the forwarded input.

j - the input index of the weight.

currentPattern - the back propagated gradients.

k - the output index of the weight.

aPreviousGradient - a gradients value calculated by a previous gradients extender.
