Detailed Description

Artificial Neural Networks - Multi-Layer Perceptrons.

Unlike many other models in ML that are constructed and trained at once, in the MLP model these steps are separated. First, a network with the specified topology is created using the non-default constructor or the method ANN_MLP::create. All the weights are set to zeros. Then, the network is trained using a set of input and output vectors. The training procedure can be repeated more than once, that is, the weights can be adjusted based on the new training data.

Additional flags for StatModel::train are available: ANN_MLP::TrainFlags.

Member Enumeration Documentation

§ ActivationFunctions

enum cv::ml::ANN_MLP::ActivationFunctions

possible activation functions

Enumerator
IDENTITY	Identity function: \(f(x)=x\)
SIGMOID_SYM	Symmetrical sigmoid: \(f(x)=\beta(1-e^{-\alpha x})/(1+e^{-\alpha x})\) Note If you are using the default sigmoid activation function with the default parameter values fparam1=0 and fparam2=0 then the function used is y = 1.7159tanh(2/3 * x), so the output will range from [-1.7159, 1.7159], instead of [0,1].
GAUSSIAN	Gaussian function: \(f(x)=\beta e^{-\alpha x*x}\)
RELU	ReLU function: \(f(x)=max(0,x)\)
LEAKYRELU	Leaky ReLU function: for x>0 \(f(x)=x \) and x<=0 \(f(x)=\alpha x \)

§ TrainFlags

enum cv::ml::ANN_MLP::TrainFlags

Train options

Enumerator
UPDATE_WEIGHTS	Update the network weights, rather than compute them from scratch. In the latter case the weights are initialized using the Nguyen-Widrow algorithm.
NO_INPUT_SCALE	Do not normalize the input vectors. If this flag is not set, the training algorithm normalizes each input feature independently, shifting its mean value to 0 and making the standard deviation equal to 1. If the network is assumed to be updated frequently, the new training data could be much different from original one. In this case, you should take care of proper normalization.
NO_OUTPUT_SCALE	Do not normalize the output vectors. If the flag is not set, the training algorithm normalizes each output feature independently, by transforming it to the certain range depending on the used activation function.

§ TrainingMethods

enum cv::ml::ANN_MLP::TrainingMethods

Available training methods

Enumerator
BACKPROP	The back-propagation algorithm.
RPROP	The RPROP algorithm. See [153] for details.
ANNEAL	The simulated annealing algorithm. See [94] for details.
