Empirical Loss Landscape Analysis of Neural Network Activation Functions

1 code implementation28 Jun 2023 Anna Sergeevna Bosman, Andries Engelbrecht, Marde Helbig

Activation functions play a significant role in neural network design by enabling non-linearity.

Training Feedforward Neural Networks with Bayesian Hyper-Heuristics

1 code implementation29 Mar 2023 Arné Schreuder, Anna Bosman, Andries Engelbrecht, Christopher Cleghorn

The process of training feedforward neural networks (FFNNs) can benefit from an automated process where the best heuristic to train the network is sought out automatically by means of a high-level probabilistic-based heuristic.

Transfer of Manure as Fertilizer from Livestock Farms to Crop Fields: The Case of Catalonia

no code implementations14 Jun 2020 Andreas Kamilaris, Andries Engelbrecht, Andreas Pitsillides, Francesc X. Prenafeta-Boldu

Intensive livestock production might have a negative environmental impact, by producing large amounts of animal manure, which, if not properly managed, can contaminate nearby water bodies with nutrient excess.

Transfer of Manure from Livestock Farms to Crop Fields as Fertilizer using an Ant Inspired Approach

no code implementations5 Jun 2020 Andreas Kamilaris, Andries Engelbrecht, Andreas Pitsillides, Francesc X. Prenafeta-Boldu

Intensive livestock production might have a negative environmental impact, by producing large amounts of animal excrements, which, if not properly managed, can contaminate nearby water bodies with nutrient excess.

Loss Surface Modality of Feed-Forward Neural Network Architectures

no code implementations24 May 2019 Anna Sergeevna Bosman, Andries Engelbrecht, Mardé Helbig

An increase in the hidden layer width is shown to effectively reduce the number of local minima, and simplify the shape of the global attractor.

Visualising Basins of Attraction for the Cross-Entropy and the Squared Error Neural Network Loss Functions

no code implementations8 Jan 2019 Anna Sergeevna Bosman, Andries Engelbrecht, Mardé Helbig

Quantification of the stationary points and the associated basins of attraction of neural network loss surfaces is an important step towards a better understanding of neural network loss surfaces at large.
