Neural networks Definition and 40 Threads

Is Deep Learning based on Neural Networks (which seem to have been around for decades) and an increase in computing power and memory? Does it utilize very large Neural Networks?

Why do almost all people not think that neural networks are the mathematical model of intelligence? I briefly explain what I understand: -A neuron is a mathematical object that takes numerical inputs from other nearby neurons, applies a nonlinear function (combining the input with numbers...

Hello, I have a question about the use of functions and overall creation of neural networks in the Wolfram Mathematica (WM) program. I wonder if it is realistic to make meaningful neural networks usable at least partially for scientific research in WM? By scientific research, I do not mean the...

Hey! 😊 On 20.06.2022 we have 1 million dollars for 10 days, so until 30.06.2022, and we want to increase the capital through shares. (The data of the shares can be found on finance.yahoo.com) So we want to check which stock has the biggest increase in this period. So we have to use the...

Hi everyone, I have to classify a DNA sequence with a LSTM neural network but I have a problem with the inputs shame. Both the sequence and the class are encoded with One Hot Encoding and my code is this: import pandas as pd import numpy as np data = pd.read_csv('splice.data', header = None)...

I've been reading various articles on Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) for the last month or so. In particular, I have been focusing on the tutorials in A Blitz Introduction to DGL. I made it through all of the tutorials OK but I'm having trouble understanding certain aspects of GNNs. I'm also...

I am from Nepal and instead of asking us code, these are types of questions that are asked in our country examination system. IDK what's their purpose. But some of them are badly hard as there are not many examples about it in textbook(In Nepal we can't get the textbook reference that the...

I have 3 classes (A, B, and C). I have 6 features: train_x = [[ 6.442 6.338 7.027 8.789 10.009 12.566] [ 6.338 7.027 5.338 10.009 8.122 11.217] [ 7.027 5.338 5.335 8.122 5.537 6.408] [ 5.338 5.335 5.659 5.537 5.241 7.043]] These features...

Hi. I'm looking for books on data science, preferably leaning towards neural networks, that focus on mathematical rigor. For example, theorems on optimization, minimum number of layers to accomplish a task efficiently, etc. Most books I've seen seem to hand wave this stuff. Anyone know any juicy...

(sorry i post this here now because i didn't know about this sub forum earlier) I came across an interesting paper from which I'll quote parts of the intro: and the conclusion: obviously the authors are more competent in Physics than I am - so are most PF member. what are your opinions on...

I came across an interesting paper from which I'll quote parts of the intro: and the conclusion: obviously the authors are more competent in Physics than I am - so are most PF member. what are your opinions on this? can the work of these authors "discover" physical laws in any way or is the...

Does anyone know any good up to date books on the mathematics of neural networks? If you know any good research papers that would be cool too. I've read through "Intro to the theory of neural computation" by John Hertz but it's a 1991 book. I'm looking for generalized theorems on...

Hi, i have a dataset with MRI of patients with a specific disease that affects the brain and another dataset with MRI of healthy patients. I want to create a classifier (using neural networks) to classify if the MRI of a new patient show the presence of the ill or not. First of all, i...

Good afternoon, I am currently working on Neural Networks and I am reading an introduction by Jeff Heaton (Neural Networks in Java). Now there are two tasks there whose solutions interest me. The first task is about applying the Hebbs rule. In the book it is given wrong because of a typo but I...

Neural networks have come a long way since I first took a course, 25 years ago. Now that I'm in the Online Masters in Analytics program at Georgia Tech, I see these topics come up often. I found the following article an interesting read...

I am planing to change my field (in PhD) and learn Machine Learning to differentiate different phases of strongly correlated matter. I learned Monte Carlo method in my MS and have intermediate level knowledge of topological insulators. Before completely getting into Machine Learning, I want to...

Hello everybody. I am currently on my last year of Computational Physics education. More and more I am interested in Machine Learning and Neural Network. Time has come for me to choose diploma work thesis, so I am searching for interesting ideas where I can merge my interest in neural networks...

This thread is a shoot-off from this thread. Assuming some relation between human language and logical reasoning, how would this relate, let's say, to the arrival and evolution of logic in human and animal psychology? I would presume that some logic, for example classical logic, can be more or...

Let's say you've trained a neural network and it can classify cat images with good (90%) accuracy. Now let's say you use a genetic algorithm and start 'breeding' images together using the NN classifier as the fitness function. Will you eventually start generating pictures that look like cats?

Hello, I'm not very familiar with neural networks, but it seems very interesting. I would like to ask how may I use it in physics, especially in astrophysics? I guess for some data mining? But could anyone show some concrete example of what it can do with data? Or if there is anything else...

As neural networks are 'universal approximators' for nonlinear functions, in general how do they perform in comparison to traditional numerical methods for nonlinear PDEs? Just googling, I can find papers on applications to Navier Stokes and other problems, but I don't really have the...

In this example: The input multiplier to the artificial neural network, at the bottom of the screen, for each note is determined by an output of an Expectation Maxamazation sequence that converges after ten iterations with input of the artificial neural network's output above a threshhold...

Hi. First of all, I am a beginner when it comes to NN and GA. I have a good enough math background though. Could anyone suggest me a good book that covers these topics in an intermediate level? Obviously a very in-depth coverage is hard to expect but I would like something more than a few pages...

Hello. I need some guidance on the derivation of the derivatives of the quadratic cost function (CF) in an artificial neural network. I can derive the equations for the forward propagation with no trouble but when it comes to finding the derivative of the CF with respect to the weight matrix...

I came across this link: http://spie.org/x648.html?product_id=540785 Paper abstract: It was published in a journal called "Quantum Information and Computation II". I checked the accepted journal list of physicsforums (this one http://www.thomsonscientific.com/cgi...cgi?PC=MASTER ) and in...

In neural network the learning algorithm ends when the mean squared error value is less than or equal to a value we have precised. But i don't understand why we are comparing with the mean squared error and not the mean error? What does the mean squared error represent?

Hello again, Im trying to build a neural network using C++. Has anyone had a go? I think the potential implications are really interesting and would like to hear about how people might have implemented them. Another general one for anyone.

Can anyone explain to me what this "neural network" nonsense is all about? Everyone and their mother is doing research in this area, but nobody seems to know what "neural networks" are or why they would be useful. It sounds like pure hype to me.

Hi Members I need to do PhD research on application of artificial neural networks in image classification (radar images), could someone please advive on where I can find the relevant and useful information: eg books, contacts, advisable University for one to enroll for PhD studies, papers etc...

I'm a novice here..but in virtual neural networks, does adding more virtual neurons improve the performance of the network in terms of recognizing patterns? Has this been experimentally verified anywhere? Can you then make an analogy that the same would happen in a biological neural network? Or...

Hi guys, If there's anyone out there who has knowledge in this area, I'm seeking to find out how to model memory consolidation using neural networks. I was thinking of using a Hopfield network to train another Hopfield network. The first network would represent the hippocampus, and the...

Is there any place to put up posts on neural networks? _____________________________________________________ Don't be fooled by the apparent humanity of this poster. He is really a computer pretending to be goat. A very smart goat...

Are artificial neural networks emulated on a traditional computer, or do they have a processor of artificial neurons? That is, is a neural network a piece of software or hardware?

the ouput nodes are a threshold function of a linear combination of inputs from the previous layer; in a single layered artificial neural network, the output is a linear combination of the input and if the ann has a n_1-n_2-...-n_j-n_(j+1) structure then the n_(j+1) output layers are all a...
