In a regression problem, how many neurons are typically found in the output layer of a neural network?

One

What is the function of a synapse in a neuron?

It is where information is transmitted between neurons.

How are inputs to a neuron weighted before being summed in the cell body?

They are strengthened or weakened based on their importance.

What is the role of the soma in a neuron?

Processing summed inputs and sending them through axons.

In artificial neurons, what happens to the inputs received before they are processed?

They are weighted based on their importance.

Which of the following best describes the activation function of a neuron?

It introduces non-linearity into the network.

What distinguishes neurons in artificial neural networks from linear regression models?

Neurons in artificial neural networks can handle non-linear relationships, unlike linear regression models.

Artificial neurons are arranged by layers.

True

Nuerons in the same layer do not have any connections.

True

which one is not a typical ANN layers?

Forward Layer

The number of neurons in the input layer is the number of inputs we feed to the network

True

There is no computaion in the input layer. it is just used for passing information from the outside world to the network.

True

Any layer between the inpout layer and the output layer is called ___________.

Hidden Layer

The input layer identifies the pattern in the dataset.

False

__________ identifies the pattern in dataset and is responsible for deriving complex relationships between input and output.

Hidden Layer

The network is called a ___________________ when we have many hidden layers.

Deep Nueral Network (DNN)

The number of neurons in the output layer is based on the number and the types of the problems to be solved.

True

_______________ is used to introduce non-linearity in neural networks.

Activation Function

The aim of the activation function is to introduce a nonlinear transformation to learn the complex underlying patterns in data.

True

The _____________ scales the input values between 0 and 1.

Sigmoid Function

Sigmoid Function = 1 / (1+ exp(-x))

True

The ____________ outputs the values between -1 and +1

Hyperbolic tangent (tanh) Function

____________ outputs the values from 0 yo infinity.

ReLU (Rectified Linear Unit) Function

the sang for being zero for all negatives values is a problem called ________ and a neuron is said to be dead if it always outputs zero.

dying ReLU

_____________ is a variant of the ReLU function that solves the dying ReLU problem. The value of alpha typically se to 0.01

Leaky ,ReLU Function

ELU (Exponential Linear Unit) is like Leaky ReLU has a small slope for negative values.

True

__________ is basically the generalization of the sigmoid functions.

The Softmax Function

The Softmax Functions is usually applied to the final layer of the network and while performing multi-class classification tasks. It gives the probabilities of each class for being output and thus , the sum of softmax values will always equal 1.

True

softmax function = exp(x) / sum(exp(x)) [0,j]

True

Learn how artificial neurons work by understanding how inputs are multiplied by weights and summed together. Discover the importance of assigning different values to weights based on the significance of the inputs in calculating the output. Explore how weights are used to strengthen inputs in artificial neural networks.
