NominalItem | A nominal item. |
OutputEquilateral | Allows nominal items to be encoded using the equilateral method. This maps the nominal items into an array of input or output values minus 1. This can sometimes provide a more accurate representation than the "one of" method. Based on: Guiver and Klimasauskas (1991). |
OutputOneOf | An output field that uses the "on of" technique to represent input data. For example, if there were five nominal items, or classes, given then each one would be represented by a single output neuron that would be on or off. Often the OutputEquilateral class is a better choice to represent nominal items. |
