BASIC MODELS OF ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORK

There are five basic types of architectures:-


1. Single layer feed forward network.
2. Multilayer feedforward network
3. Single node with its own feedback
4. Single layer recurrent network
5. Multilayer recurrent network
1. Single layer feed forward network
The inputs can be connected to these nodes with various weights, resulting in a series
of outputs, one per node. The input layer does not count because no computation is performed
in this layer. The output layer is formed when different weights are applied to input nodes and
the cumulative effect per node is taken. After this, the neurons collectively give the output layer
to compute the output signals.

2. Multilayer feedforward network


A multilayer feedforward network is formed by the interconnection of several layers.
The input layer is that which receives the input and this layer has no function except
buffering the input signal. The output layer generates the output of the network. Any layer
that is formed between the input layer and the output layer is called the hidden layer. The
hidden layer that is internal to the network and has no direct contact with the external layer.
The existence of one or more hidden layers enables the network to be computationally
stronger, a feed-forward network because of information flow through the input function, and
the intermediate computations used to determine the output Z. There are no feedback
connections in which outputs of the model are fed back into itself
3. Single node with its own feedback
If the feedback of the output of the processing elements is directed back as an input to
the processing elements in the same layer then it is called lateral feedback. Recurrent
networks are feedback networks with closed loops. The above figure shows a single recurrent
network having a single neuron with feedback to itself

4. Single layer recurrent network


The above network is a single-layer network with a feedback connection in which the
processing element’s output can be directed back to itself or to another processing element or
both. A recurrent neural network is a class of artificial neural networks where connections
between nodes form a directed graph along a sequence. This allows it to exhibit dynamic
temporal behavior for a time sequence. Unlike feedforward neural networks, RNNs can use
their internal state (memory) to process sequences of inputs.
5) Multilayer recurrent network
The processing element output can be directed to the processing element in the same
layer and in the preceding layer forming a multilayer recurrent network. They perform the
same task for every element of a sequence, with the output being dependent on the previous
computations. Inputs are not needed at each time step. The main feature of a Recurrent
Neural Network is its hidden state, which captures some information about a sequence.
Two Marks
1. Define neural Networks
A neural network is a machine learning program, or model, that makes decisions in a manner
similar to the human brain.

2. What is activation function?


Activation function is a mathematical function that determines how a neuron in a neural
network responds to input data. It's a key part of neural networks that enables them to learn
and recognize complex patterns in data.

3) What is classification?
Classification in machine learning is a process that uses algorithms to categorize data into
classes. It's a supervised learning technique that uses labeled data to train models.

4) Define back propagation


Backpropagation is a machine learning technique that trains artificial neural networks by
adjusting their weights to reduce the error in their output. It's a standard method for training
feedforward neural networks
