A Method for Calculating the Derivative of Activation Functions Based on Piecewise Linear Approximation

Nonlinear functions are widely used as activation functions in artificial neural networks, which have a great impact on the fitting ability of artificial neural networks. Due to the complexity of the activation function, the computation of the activation function and its derivative requires a lot of...
