Class NguyenWidrowRandomizer

java.lang.Object
  org.encog.mathutil.randomize.NguyenWidrowRandomizer

All Implemented Interfaces:

Randomizer

public class NguyenWidrowRandomizer
extends Object
implements Randomizer

Implementation of Nguyen-Widrow weight initialization. This is the default weight initialization used by Encog, as it generally provides the most train-able neural network.

Method Detail

randomize

public void randomize(MLMethod method)

Description copied from interface: Randomizer

Randomize the synapses and bias values in the basic network based on an array, modify the array. Previous values may be used, or they may be discarded, depending on the randomizer.

Specified by:

randomize in interface Randomizer

Parameters:

method - A network to randomize.

randomize

public double randomize(double d)

Description copied from interface: Randomizer

Specified by:

randomize in interface Randomizer

Parameters:

d - The number to randomize.

Returns:

A randomized number.
