Method home for mlp-bgd-2

The mlp-bgd-2 method does regression and classification using a multilayer perceptron neural network with one hidden layer, trained by batch gradient descent, with learning rates out of inputs dynamically adjusted based on the fourth power of the gradient. Aside from this adjustment, it operates the same as mlp-bgd-1. See the notes for more details.

Software

This method uses the software for flexible Bayesian modeling written by Radford Neal (release of 1997-06-22), available from Radford Neal's home page.
