## org.encog.neural.networks.layers
Interface Layer

All Known Implementing Classes:
  BasicLayer

    public interface Layer

This interface defines all necessary methods for a neural network layer.

Author:
  jheaton

Method Summary
`ActivationFunction` | `getActivationFunction()`
`double` | `getBiasActivation()` Most layer types will default this value to one.
`BasicNetwork` | `getNetwork()`
`int` | `getNeuronCount()`
`boolean` | `hasBias()`
`void` | `setActivation(ActivationFunction activation)` Set the activation function.
`void` | `setBiasActivation(double activation)` Most layer types will default this value to one.
`void` | `setNetwork(BasicNetwork network)` Set the network that this layer belongs to.

Method Detail

### getActivationFunction

    ActivationFunction getActivationFunction()

  Returns:
    The activation function used for this layer.

### getNetwork

    BasicNetwork getNetwork()

  Returns:
    The network that this layer is attached to.

### getNeuronCount

    int getNeuronCount()

  Returns:
    The neuron count.

### hasBias

    boolean hasBias()

  Returns:
    True if this layer has a bias.

### setNetwork

    void setNetwork(BasicNetwork network)

  Set the network that this layer belongs to.

  Parameters:
    `network` - The network.

### setBiasActivation

    void setBiasActivation(double activation)

  Most layer types will default this value to one. However, it is possible to use other values. This is the activation that will be passed over the bias weights to the inputs of this layer. See the Layer interface documentation for more information on how Encog handles bias values.

  Parameters:
    `activation` - The activation for the bias weights.

### getBiasActivation

    double getBiasActivation()

  Most layer types will default this value to one. However, it is possible to use other values. This is the activation that will be passed over the bias weights to the inputs of this layer. See the Layer interface documentation for more information on how Encog handles bias values.

  Returns:
    The bias activation for this layer.

### setActivation

    void setActivation(ActivationFunction activation)

  Set the activation function.

  Parameters:
    `activation` - The activation function.
