In this way, the structure of the neural network can be represented by a simple function, and it is possible to find the mathematical solution of the ANN. Thus, it can be recognized that the current ANN can be placed in a larger and more reasonable framework. Perhaps all questions about ANN will be eliminated.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-08-27T23:20:34.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "artificial neural network", "function representation", "activation integral concept", "simple function", "functional form" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
