What is an activation function?

Correct! Well done.

Incorrect.

The correct answer is B) A non-linear function applied to each neuron's output, enabling neural networks to learn complex non-linear mappings

B

Correct Answer

A non-linear function applied to each neuron's output, enabling neural networks to learn complex non-linear mappings

Explanation

Without activation functions, neural networks are just linear transformations. ReLU (max(0,x)) is most common. Sigmoid (output 0-1) for binary output. Softmax for multi-class output. GELU, Swish used in Transformers.
