fann_set_activation_output_steepness

Name

fann_set_activation_output_steepness -- Set the steepness of the activation function of the hidden layers.

Description

void fann_set_activation_output_steepness(struct fann * ann, fann_type steepness);

Set the steepness of the activation function of the hidden layers of ann to steepness.

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 is deprecated and will be removed in a future version. Use fann_set_activation_steepness_output instead.

This function appears in FANN >= 1.0.0. and is deprecated in FANN >= 1.2.0.
