• Heaviside Step Function

  Named after the English mathematician and physicist Oliver Heaviside, the Heaviside step function was used in Rosenblatt’s perceptron. It is a piecewise function and is mathematically defined as The Heaviside step function essentially gives the perceptron algorithm its binary decision-making property.

• Mathematics of Perceptrons

  The perceptron algorithm is a basic artificial neuron and is considered to be a building block of neural networks. It takes inputs, applies weights and produces output using an activation function. A supervised learning algorithm, it is a binary classifier, separating data points using a linear combination of the input variables. The algorithm consists of…
