In contrast to other techniques, we show that errors arising in function approximation or curve fitting are caused by the neural network itself rather than scatter in the data. A method is proposed that provides improvements in the accuracy achieved during training and resulting ability of the ...
In this tutorial, you will discover the intuition behind neural networks as function approximation algorithms. After completing this tutorial, you will know: Training a neural network on data approximates the unknown underlying mapping function from inputs to outputs. One dimensional input and output ...
we propose two activation functionsfor neural network function approximation in reinforcement learning: the sigmoid-weighted linear unit(SiLU) and its derivative function (dSiLU). The activation of the SiLU is computed by the sigmoid functionmultiplied by its input. Second, we suggest that the more...
First, we propose two activation functions for neural network function approximation in reinforcement learning: the sigmoid-weighted linear unit (SiLU) and its derivative function (dSiLU). The activation of the SiLU is computed by the sigmoid function multiplied by its input. Second, we suggest ...
This neuron can be trained to learn an affine function of its inputs, or to find a linear approximation to a nonlinear function. A linear network cannot, of course, be made to perform a nonlinear computation. Network Architecture The linear network shown below has one layer of S neurons con...
1.4.1 Neural Networks-Based Function Approximation In this Section, we give an overview of basic neural network types used for constitutive modeling in the reviewed publications, including FFNNs, RNNs and CNNs. The outlined neural network types are depicted in Fig. 4. FFNNs are general mappings...
We propose herein a neural network based on curved kernels constituing an anisotropic family of functions and a learning rule to automatically tune the number of needed kernels to the frequency of the data in the input space. The model has been tested on two case studies of approximation proble...

Neural networks for function approximation are the basis of many applications. Such networks often use a sigmoidal activation function (e.g. tanh) or a radial basis function (e.g. gaussian). Networks have also been developed using wavelets. In this paper, we present a neural network approximat...
Fault tolerance.Even if a part of the network fails, the entire network can still function. What are the Limitations of Neural Networks? Data dependency.They require a large amount of data to function effectively. Opaque nature.Often termed as "black boxes" because it's challenging to understan...
