Activation functions in a deep neural networks

This activation function prevents collapsing because it adds a extra bit of processing before transfering the output of a neuron. Let's say we have an activationfunction that allows passing of value > 0. If any neuron have value < 0 then their outputare not passed to next layer. By doing these stuffs, activation function introduce non-linearlity.

Simple time-of-day TCP Client-Server model example using sockets in C

In a client-server model, a server is an application program that offers a service over a network. The server's code runs first, which opens a port and accepts an incoming request. When a request arrives it forms a response and returns the result to the requester. A program becomes a client when it sends a request to a server and waits for a response.

Classification of Data Structure

A Data Structure, as the name suggests, is a method to store data in a structured way so that it can be easily created, viewed, and managed. How do we classify data structures?

Introduction to Abstract Data Types

Computer Scientists uses the concept of abstraction to manage the complexity of a system or a problem. By abstraction we mean, specifying what it does, but not How it does. Applying the same concept of abstraction on the design of data structures give rise to abstract data types or ADTs.

Don't be religious about technology

To some extent, every people in the technical field are religious about their technology(programming language, OS, and other). It is quite natural to believe that what we have chose is best. Just like sports, we are so charged with passion, enthusiasm, our all opinion are conspicuously more charged. So we always believe that our choice is greatest of great.

How often should we commit? Is git commit quantification of quality?

The best answer to question "How often should you commit?" would be "More often than you are doing now". Commit every change that you don't think breaks something, But otherwise, the smaller the changes you commit the better.

K-Nearest Neighbour Algorithm for Image Classification

KNN algorithm assumes that similar things are near to each other. In KNN we select a number of neighbors of the things we're are interested in and based on the properties of its neighbor we predict something about the thing.

Mimicking Biological Neural Network | Artificial Neurons and Biological Neurons | Perceptron | Multi-Layer Perceptron | Backpropagation

Although a present day artificial neural network resembles the biological neural network/human brain much as a paper plane resembles a supersonic jet, although, ANN have become quite different from the biological neural network, studying the biological neural network- the insipiration for ANN will do only good.

Getting a Handle on Vector for Machine Learning

The word vector comes from the Latin for “carrier”, reason might be the nature of vector to move from one location to another. In physics, a Vector is an object that moves around a physical space. In Data Science and Machine Learning we generalize this idea to think vector as a list of attributes of an object.

I Love Everything That Makes Me More Human

As I read through the chapters of Honda Katsuichi’s book "The Nanjing Massacre: A Japanese Journalist Confronts Japan’s National Shame", one sergeant confessed that because a crying baby disturbed him while he was raping the baby's mother, he threw the baby into the boiling water. Was that Sergeant a Human?
