C# Class SharpNeat.Network.NullFn

Null activation function. Returns zero regardless of input.

Inheritance: IActivationFunction

Method	Description
Calculate ( double x, double auxArgs ) : double	Calculates the output value for the specified input value.
Calculate ( float x, float auxArgs ) : float	Calculates the output value for the specified input value with float/single precision. This single precision overload of Calculate() will be used in neural network code that has been specifically written to use floats instead of doubles.
GetRandomAuxArgs ( XorShiftRandom rng, double connectionWeightRange ) : double[]	For activation functions that accept auxiliary arguments; generates random initial values for aux arguments for newly added nodes (from an 'add neuron' mutation).
MutateAuxArgs ( double auxArgs, XorShiftRandom rng, SharpNeat.Utility.ZigguratGaussianSampler gaussianSampler, double connectionWeightRange ) : void	Genetic mutation for auxiliary argument data.
