what is Neural Network?
Neural Networks are inspired by biological neuron of Brain
from the dendrites inputs are being transferred to cell body , then the cell body will process it then passes that using axon , this is what Biological Neuron Is .
Same process like Brain Neuron
- Inputs are passed
- + Symbol in the cell body denotes adding them together
- Threshold is Activation Function (We will talk that later)
How Neural Network Works ?
Steps :
- Takes the input Values
- Multiplies with the weight adding bias value to it
- Forward Propagation is finished
- now check the error
- then change the Weight values
- Back-propagation is Finished
- Repeat it until error gets low as possible
What is Activation Function ?
IF we did not use the activation function means it is equal to the Linear Regression Model ,
Non-Linear activation Function are more overly used because in real world data-set we will handle non linear data-sets a lot so that linear is not much usefull
Activation function are used in the hidden layer and output layer
there are many Non-linear Activation functions are available like Sigmoid , tanh , ReLU etc….
want to know more about activation function
Each Activation functions are having their own derivatives
In this Sigmoid Derivatives has been shown , Derivatives are used for updating the Weights

if your problem Regression means in the hidden layer and output layer you should not use Sigmoid you can use ReLU , Classification means Sigmoid we can use
We are having the inputs in which 0 and 1 , outputs are 0 and 1 , so for these we can use sigmoid
if you have new situation like for 1 0 0 what will be the output ?
Forward Propagation
Takes the input and multiplying weights with it , adding bias to it , pass it into sigmoid function y is calculated , then doing subtraction with original y to calculated y
error =original_y — calcul_y
calculated y is passed to the sigmoid derivatives stored as sd , then multiplying error and sd , and then doing the matrix multiplication and storing the value as Adju .
Backward Propagation
Then adding Adju values to the weight , the weight has been updated , weight+=adju
repeat it until the error gets low
Code : git-hub
- In_init_ function setting up the weight randomly
- Defining sigmoid and its derivatives
- the Backpropagation steps in train function
- think function just passes the values to the neural network
Randomly started weights and finally error corrected weights , then we have given iput as 1 0 0
output for it 0.9993704 nearly 1 almost right , this is how the neural networks are Working
