For this, you also need non-linear thresholding functions that adjust the weights between the layers of neurons.

Thanks to these abilities, they can already topple complex linear differential equations exponentially faster than classical machines. Researchers have long hoped they could similarly tame nonlinear ...

While I do spend lots of time pushing the idea of linear approximations on my students, we do need nonlinear functions to describe most interesting physical phenomena.

Non-linear physics is the study of systems where the output is not directly proportional to the input. Unlike linear systems, which follow simple, predictable relationships, non-linear systems exhibit ...

This article reviews work on the planning of experiments with response functions nonlinear in some parameters. Apart from older work on dilution series experiments and quantal bioassays, this field is ...

We demonstrate the implementation of a variety of non-linear models that are more appropriate for modeling plant growth than are the traditional, linear, models.Ecological inference is frequently ...
