backpropagation algorithm

 

Backpropagation algorithm

1. Backpropagation is an algorithm used in the training of feedforward neural networks for supervised learning. 


2. Backpropagation efficiently computes the gradient of the loss function with respect to the weights of the network for a single input-output example. 


3. This makes it feasible to use gradient methods for training multi-layer networks, updating weights to minimize loss, we use gradient descent or variants such as stochastic gradient descent. 


4. The backpropagation algorithm works by computing the gradient of the loss function with respect to each weight by the chain rule, iterating backwards one layer at a time from the last layer to avoid redundant calculations of intermediate terms in the chain rule; this is an example of dynamic programming. 

5. The term backpropagation refers only to the algorithm for computing the gradient, but it is often used loosely to refer to the entire learning algorithm.

6. Backpropagation generalizes the gradient computation in the delta rule and is in turn generalized by automatic differentiation, where backpropagation is a special case of reverse accumulation (reverse mode)

Effect of tuning parameters of the backpropagation neural network :

  1. Momentum factor :
  2. Learning coefficient :
  3.  Sigmoidal gain : 
  4. Threshold value :

Create a socket for HTTP for web page upload and download

Create a socket for HTTP for web page upload and download. Aim: To write a java program for socket for HTTP for web page upload and download . Algorithm 1.Start the program. 2.Get the frame size from the user 3.To create the frame based on the user request. 4.To send frames to server from the client side. 5.If your frames reach the server it will send ACK signal to client otherwise it will send NACK signal to client. 6.Stop the program Program : Client import javax.swing.*; import java.net.*; import java.awt.image.*; import javax.imageio.*; import java.io.*; import java.awt.image.BufferedImage; import java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream; import java.io.File; import java.io.IOException; import javax.imageio.ImageIO; public class Client{ public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception{ Socket soc; BufferedImage img = null; soc=new Socket("localhost",4000); System.out.println("Client is running.

Write a code simulating ARP /RARP protocols

   Write a code simulating ARP /RARP protocols . Aim:        To write a java program for simulating ARP/RARP protocols ALGORITHM: server 1. Create a server socket and bind it to port. 2. Listen for new connection and when a connection arrives, accept it. 3. Send server ‟ s date and time to the client. 4. Read client ‟ s IP address sent by the client. 5. Display the client details. 6. Repeat steps 2-5 until the server is terminated. 7. Close all streams. 8. Close the server socket. 9. Stop. Client 1. Create a client socket and connect it to the server ‟ s port number. 2. Retrieve its own IP address using built-in function. 3. Send its address to the server. 4. Display the date & time sent by the server. 5. Close the input and output streams. 6. Close the client socket. 7. Stop. Program Program for Address Resolutuion Protocol (ARP) using TCP Client: import java.io.*; import java.net.*; impor...
