<section id="the-relu-function-family">
<h2>The RELU function family<a class="headerlink" href="#the-relu-function-family" title="Link to this heading">#</a></h2>
<p>The ReLU activation function suffers from a problem known as the dying
ReLUs: during training, some neurons effectively die, meaning they
stop outputting anything other than 0.</p>
<p>In some cases, you may find that half of your networks neurons are
dead, especially if you used a large learning rate. During training,
if a neurons weights get updated such that the weighted sum of the
neurons inputs is negative, it will start outputting 0. When this
happen, the neuron is unlikely to come back to life since the gradient
of the ReLU function is 0 when its input is negative.</p>
</section>
<section id="elu-function">
<h2>ELU function<a class="headerlink" href="#elu-function" title="Link to this heading">#</a></h2>
<p>To solve this problem, nowadays practitioners use a variant of the
ReLU function, such as the leaky ReLU discussed above or the so-called
exponential linear unit (ELU) function</p>
<div class="math notranslate nohighlight">
\[\begin{split}
ELU(z) = \left\{\begin{array}{cc} \alpha\left( \exp{(z)}-1\right) &amp; z &lt; 0,\\ z &amp; z \ge 0.\end{array}\right.

</section>
<section id="which-activation-function-should-we-use">
<h2>Which activation function should we use?<a class="headerlink" href="#which-activation-function-should-we-use" title="Link to this heading">#</a></h2>
<p>In general it seems that the ELU activation function is better than
the leaky ReLU function (and its variants), which is better than
ReLU. ReLU performs better than <span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(\tanh\)</span> which in turn performs better
than the logistic function.</p>
<p>If runtime performance is an issue, then you may opt for the leaky
ReLU function over the ELU function If you dont want to tweak yet
another hyperparameter, you may just use the default <span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(\alpha\)</span> of
<span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(0.01\)</span> for the leaky ReLU, and <span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(1\)</span> for ELU. If you have spare time and
computing power, you can use cross-validation or bootstrap to evaluate
other activation functions.</p>

<section id="more-on-activation-functions-output-layers">
<h2>More on activation functions, output layers<a class="headerlink" href="#more-on-activation-functions-output-layers" title="Link to this heading">#</a></h2>
<p>In most cases you can use the ReLU activation function in the hidden
layers (or one of its variants).</p>
<p>It is a bit faster to compute than other activation functions, and the
gradient descent optimization does in general not get stuck.</p>
<p><strong>For the output layer:</strong></p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p>For classification the softmax activation function is generally a good choice for classification tasks (when the classes are mutually exclusive).</p></li>
<li><p>For regression tasks, you can simply use no activation function at all.</p></li>

<section id="building-neural-networks-in-tensorflow-and-keras">
<h2>Building neural networks in Tensorflow and Keras<a class="headerlink" href="#building-neural-networks-in-tensorflow-and-keras" title="Link to this heading">#</a></h2>
<p>Now we want to build on the experience gained from our neural network implementation in NumPy and scikit-learn
and use it to construct a neural network in Tensorflow. Once we have constructed a neural network in NumPy
and Tensorflow, building one in Keras is really quite trivial, though the performance may suffer.</p>
<p>In our previous example we used only one hidden layer, and in this we will use two. From this it should be quite
clear how to build one using an arbitrary number of hidden layers, using data structures such as Python lists or
NumPy arrays.</p>
</section>
<section id="tensorflow">
<h2>Tensorflow<a class="headerlink" href="#tensorflow" title="Link to this heading">#</a></h2>
<p>Tensorflow is an open source library machine learning library
developed by the Google Brain team for internal use. It was released
under the Apache 2.0 open source license in November 9, 2015.</p>
<p>Tensorflow is a computational framework that allows you to construct
machine learning models at different levels of abstraction, from
high-level, object-oriented APIs like Keras, down to the C++ kernels
that Tensorflow is built upon. The higher levels of abstraction are
simpler to use, but less flexible, and our choice of implementation
should reflect the problems we are trying to solve.</p>
<p><a class="reference external" href="https://www.tensorflow.org/guide/graphs">Tensorflow uses</a> so-called graphs to represent your computation
in terms of the dependencies between individual operations, such that you first build a Tensorflow <em>graph</em>
to represent your model, and then create a Tensorflow <em>session</em> to run the graph.</p>
<p>In this guide we will analyze the same data as we did in our NumPy and
scikit-learn tutorial, gathered from the MNIST database of images. We
will give an introduction to the lower level Python Application
Program Interfaces (APIs), and see how we use them to build our graph.
Then we will build (effectively) the same graph in Keras, to see just
how simple solving a machine learning problem can be.</p>

<h2>Building our own neural network code<a class="headerlink" href="#building-our-own-neural-network-code" title="Link to this heading">#</a></h2>
<p>Here we present a flexible object oriented codebase
for a feed forward neural network, along with a demonstration of how
to use it. Before we get into the details of the neural network, we
will first present some implementations of various schedulers, cost
functions and activation functions that can be used together with the
neural network.</p>

<h3>Learning rate methods<a class="headerlink" href="#learning-rate-methods" title="Link to this heading">#</a></h3>
<p>The code below shows object oriented implementations of the Constant,
Momentum, Adagrad, AdagradMomentum, RMS prop and Adam schedulers. All
of the classes belong to the shared abstract Scheduler class, and
share the update_change() and reset() methods allowing for any of the
schedulers to be seamlessly used during the training stage, as will
later be shown in the fit() method of the neural
network. Update_change() only has one parameter, the gradient
(<span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(δ^l_ja^{l1}_k\)</span>), and returns the change which will be subtracted
from the weights. The reset() function takes no parameters, and resets
the desired variables. For Constant and Momentum, reset does nothing.</p>

<h3>The Neural Network<a class="headerlink" href="#the-neural-network" title="Link to this heading">#</a></h3>
<p>Now that we have gotten a good understanding of the implementation of
some important components, we can take a look at an object oriented
implementation of a feed forward neural network. The feed forward
neural network has been implemented as a class named FFNN, which can
be initiated as a regressor or classifier dependant on the choice of
cost function. The FFNN can have any number of input nodes, hidden
layers with any amount of hidden nodes, and any amount of output nodes
meaning it can perform multiclass classification as well as binary
classification and regression problems. Although there is a lot of
code present, it makes for an easy to use and generalizeable interface
for creating many types of neural networks as will be demonstrated
below.</p>

------------
I dimensions (tuple[int]): A list of positive integers, which specifies the
number of nodes in each of the networks layers. The first integer in the array
defines the number of nodes in the input layer, the second integer defines number
of nodes in the first hidden layer and so on until the last number, which
specifies the number of nodes in the output layer.

IV scheduler_args (list[int]) : list of all arguments necessary for scheduler
Optional Parameters:
------------
V batches (int) : number of batches the datasets are split into, default equal to 1
VI epochs (int) : number of iterations used to train the network, default equal to 100
VII lam (float) : regularization hyperparameter lambda
VIII X_val (np.ndarray) : validation set
IX t_val (np.ndarray) : validation target set
Returns:
------------
I scores (dict) : A dictionary containing the performance metrics of the model.

of input nodes to be equal to the datapoints, and the output to
predict one value).</p>

will by default run for 100 epochs. These can easily be changed, such

<section id="why-the-jacobian">
<h2>Why the jacobian?<a class="headerlink" href="#why-the-jacobian" title="Link to this heading">#</a></h2>
<p>The Jacobian is used because the program must find the derivative of
the trial solution with respect to <span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(x\)</span> and <span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(t\)</span>.</p>
<p>This gives the necessity of computing the Jacobian matrix, as we want
to evaluate the gradient with respect to <span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(x\)</span> and <span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(t\)</span> (note that the
Jacobian of a scalar-valued multivariate function is simply its
gradient).</p>
<p>In Autograd, the differentiation is by default done with respect to
the first input argument of your Python function. Since the points is
an array representing <span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(x\)</span> and <span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(t\)</span>, the Jacobian is calculated using
the values of <span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(x\)</span> and <span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(t\)</span>.</p>
<p>To find the second derivative with respect to <span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(x\)</span> and <span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(t\)</span>, the
Jacobian can be found for the second time. The result is a Hessian
matrix, which is the matrix containing all the possible second order
mixed derivatives of <span class="math notranslate nohighlight">\(g(x,t)\)</span>.</p>

<p>A possible way to implement a neural network solving the PDE, is given below.
Be aware, though, that it is fairly slow for the parameters used.
A better result is possible, but requires more iterations, and thus longer time to complete.</p>
<p>Indeed, the program below is not optimal in its implementation, but rather serves as an example on how to implement and use a neural network to solve a PDE.
Using TensorFlow results in a much better execution time. Try it!</p>
