fann_get_activation_steepness_hidden

Name

fann_get_activation_steepness_hidden -- Retrieve the steepness of the activation function of the hidden layers.

Description

fann_type fann_get_activation_steepness_hidden(struct fann * ann);

Return the steepness of the activation function of the hidden layers.

The steepness defaults to 0.5 and a larger steepness will make the slope of the activation function more steep, while a smaller steepness will make the slope less steep. A large steepness is well suited for classification problems while a small steepness is well suited for function approximation.

This function appears in FANN >= 1.2.0. and replaces the fann_get_activation_hidden_steepness function from FANN >= 1.0.0.
