Abstract
A neural network architecture for classifying input data is provided. The neural network architecture includes an input block, an output block, and at least one hidden block interposed between the input block and the output block. Characteristically, each neuron of an input block output neuron layer, an output block input neuron layer, an output block output neuron layer, a hidden block input neuron layer and a hidden block output neuron layer, independently applies a logistic activation function or an activation function that is the sum of a logistic activation function and a linear term or an activation function that is the sum of a logistic activation function and a quasi-linear term.
