MLFF_NETWORK_INIT Function (PV-WAVE Advantage)

IMSL Statistics Reference Guide > Data Mining > MLFF_NETWORK_INIT Function (PV-WAVE Advantage)

Creates a multilayered feedforward neural network.

Usage

result = MLFF_NETWORK_INIT(input, output)

Input Parameters

input—A scalar integer defining the number of input layer nodes in the network.

output—A scalar integer defining the number of output layer nodes in the network.

Returned Value

result—A structure containing the multilayered feed forward network.

Discussion

MLFF_NETWORK_INIT creates a two-layered network, where nodes within the network are not initially linked. This initial network structure is modified with MLFF_NETWORK and MLFF_NETWORK_TRAINER.

Example

For examples, refer to the Example section of the MLFF_NETWORK_TRAINER Function (PV-WAVE Advantage) and MLFF_NETWORK_FORECAST Function (PV-WAVE Advantage).
