Relations §

• Forward Propagation: Forward propagation computes the predicted output of a neural network, which is then used in backpropagation to calculate the error.
• Activation Functions: Activation functions in neural networks introduce non-linearities, which are essential for backpropagation to work effectively.
• Chain Rule: The chain rule of calculus is used in backpropagation to compute the gradients efficiently through the computational graph.
• Deep Learning: Backpropagation is a crucial algorithm in deep learning, enabling the training of deep neural networks.
• Convolutional Neural Networks: Backpropagation is used to train Convolutional Neural Networks by adjusting weights
• Overfitting: Backpropagation can lead to overfitting if not properly regularized or if the training data is not representative.
• Error Function: Backpropagation uses an error function to calculate the difference between the predicted output and the actual output.
• Weights: Backpropagation adjusts the weights of a neural network based on the error gradients calculated during the backward pass.
• Partial Derivatives: Backpropagation relies on the calculation of partial derivatives to determine the gradients used for weight updates.
• Stochastic Gradient Descent: Stochastic gradient descent is a variant of gradient descent often used in conjunction with backpropagation for efficient training.
• Supervised Learning: Backpropagation is commonly used in supervised learning tasks, where the output is compared to the ground truth labels.
• Computational Graph: Backpropagation operates on the computational graph of a neural network, propagating errors backward through the graph.
• Loss Function: The loss function, also known as the error function, is minimized during the backpropagation process.
• Regularization: Regularization techniques, such as L1 and L2 regularization, can be used in conjunction with backpropagation to prevent overfitting.
• Activation Functions: Activation functions play a crucial role in the backpropagation algorithm used to train neural networks.
• Vanishing Gradient Problem: The vanishing gradient problem can occur in deep neural networks, making it difficult for backpropagation to effectively update the weights.
