Detailed Description

A layer in a NeuralNet.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Layer::Layer ( )

Initialize a layer with the default sigmoid activation function.

Layer::Layer ( std::ifstream * input )

explicit

Initialize a layer from a saved text file.

The saved text file must be formatted as outputted by the storeNetWithStream(std::ofstream *output) function.

Parameters

input the text file for the Layer object to be initialized from

std::string Layer::getActivationFunctionName ( )

Gets the name of the layer's activation function.

static std::map<std::string, ActivationFunction> net::Layer::getActivationFunctionNameMap ( )

inlinestatic

Gets the map of activation function name to ActivationFunction.

static std::map<std::string, ActivationFunction> net::Layer::getDerivedActivationFunctionNames ( )

inlinestatic

Gets the map of activation function name to a derived ActivationFunction.

void Layer::setActivationFunctionWithName ( std::string name )

Sets the activation function to the given string.

Parameters

name	the name of the activation function

void Layer::store ( std::ofstream * output )

Store the layer to a text file.

This can later be read by the Layer(std::ifstream *input) constructor.

Parameters

output the text file for the layer object to be written to

ActivationFunction net::Layer::activationFunction

The activation function for the neurons of this layer.

An activation function takes the summation of the inputs times the weights of a neuron and uses an activation value of 0 to filter the output

std::vector<Neuron> net::Layer::neurons

Holds the neurons of this layer.
