Good day! I am new to neural networks and in Matlab nnet toolbox.
Basically, I want to re-implement a backpropagation feedforward neural network described from a journal/research paper. The info/parameters that I currently have are the ff: 1) it consists of 2 layers: 1 hidden, 1 output 2) 6 input neurons, 6 output neurons, 5 neurons in the hidden layer 3) the values in the input are all floating point numbers, and just binary numbers in the output 4) the activation functions are tansigmoid for the first layer, then logsigmoid for the second 5) I need to get a least mean square (LMS) error that is below 0.05. 6) no info provided about the learning rate or the momentum 7) I can generate training samples as many as needed (5000 was used)
and these are my trial codes so far:
inputs = rand([6, 6000]); outputs = randi([0,1],6, 6000); net = feedforwardnet(5); net = configure(net,inputs, outputs); net.layers{2}.transferFcn = 'logsig'; net.trainParam.epochs = 6000; net.trainParam.goal = 0.01; net = train(net,inputs,outputs);
I'm not using yet my data since I'm still thinking how to normalize my inputs. My problem is that when I try to use the network, the output is not a binary array but some floating point values. What should I do about it?
And any further thoughts/advices? I would really appreciate them. Thank you in advance.
