Examples

# Return derivative of the sigmoid activation function of a neuron
ActivationFunction <- DerActFunc("sigmoid")
# Return derivative of the tanh activation function of a neuron
ActivationFunction <- DerActFunc("tanh")
# Return derivative of the activation function of several layers of neurons
actfuncs <- c("linear","sigmoid","linear")
ActivationFunctions <- sapply(actfuncs, DerActFunc)
