Adaline Explained With Python Example

In this post, you will learn the concepts of Adaline (ADAptive LInear NEuron), a machine learning algorithm, along with a Python example. Like Perceptron, it is important to understand the concepts of Adaline as it forms the foundation of learning neural networks. The concept of Perceptron and Adaline could found to be useful in understanding how gradient descent can be used to learn the weights which when combined with input signals is used to make predictions based on unit step function output.

Here are the topics covered in this post in relation to Adaline algorithm and its Python implementation:

• What’s Adaline?
• Adaline Python implementation
• Model trained using Adaline implementation

What’s Adaline?

Adaline, like Perceptron, also mimics a neuron in the human brain. You may want to read one of my related posts on Perceptron — Perceptron explained using Python example. Adaline is also called as **single-layer neural network. **Here is the diagram of Adaline:

The following represents the working of Adaline machine learning algorithm based on the above diagram:

• Net Input function - Combination of Input signals of different strength (weights): Input signals of different strength (weights) get combined / added in order to be fed into the activation function. The combined input or sum of weighted inputs can also be called as **net input. ** Pay attention to the Net-input function shown in the above diagram
• Net input is fed into activation function (Linear): Net input is fed into activation function. The activation function of adaline is an identity function. If Z is net input, the identity function would look like (g(Z) = Z). The activation function is linear activation function as the output of the function is linear combination of input signals and weights.
• Activation function output is used to learn weights: The output of activation function (same as net input owing to identity function) is used to calculate the change in weights related to different inputs which will be updated to learn new weights. Pay attention to feedback loop shown with text **Error or cost. **Recall that in Perceptron, the activation function is a unit step function and the output is binary (1 or 0) based on whether the net input value is greater than or equal to zero (0) or otherwise.
• Threshold function - Binary prediction (1 or 0) based on unit step function: The prediction made by Adaline neuron is done in the same manner as in case of Perceptron. The output of activation function, which is net input is compared with 0 and the output is 1 or 0 depending upon whether the net input is greater than or equal to 0. Pay attention in the above diagram as to how the output of activation function is fed into threshold function.

Lambda, Map, Filter functions in python

Welcome to my Blog, In this article, we will learn python lambda function, Map function, and filter function.

Lambda function in python: Lambda is a one line anonymous function and lambda takes any number of arguments but can only have one expression and python lambda syntax is

Syntax: x = lambda arguments : expression

Now i will show you some python lambda function examples:

Python Tricks Every Developer Should Know

Python is awesome, it’s one of the easiest languages with simple and intuitive syntax but wait, have you ever thought that there might ways to write your python code simpler?

In this tutorial, you’re going to learn a variety of Python tricks that you can use to write your Python code in a more readable and efficient way like a pro.

Let’s get started

Swapping value in Python

Instead of creating a temporary variable to hold the value of the one while swapping, you can do this instead

>>> FirstName = "kalebu"
>>> LastName = "Jordan"
>>> FirstName, LastName = LastName, FirstName 
>>> print(FirstName, LastName)
('Jordan', 'kalebu')

How to Remove all Duplicate Files on your Drive via Python

Today you’re going to learn how to use Python programming in a way that can ultimately save a lot of space on your drive by removing all the duplicates.

Intro

In many situations you may find yourself having duplicates files on your disk and but when it comes to tracking and checking them manually it can tedious.

Heres a solution

Instead of tracking throughout your disk to see if there is a duplicate, you can automate the process using coding, by writing a program to recursively track through the disk and remove all the found duplicates and that’s what this article is about.

But How do we do it?

If we were to read the whole file and then compare it to the rest of the files recursively through the given directory it will take a very long time, then how do we do it?

The answer is hashing, with hashing can generate a given string of letters and numbers which act as the identity of a given file and if we find any other file with the same identity we gonna delete it.

There’s a variety of hashing algorithms out there such as

• md5
• sha1
• sha224, sha256, sha384 and sha512

How To Compare Tesla and Ford Company By Using Magic Methods in Python

Magic Methods are the special methods which gives us the ability to access built in syntactical features such as ‘<’, ‘>’, ‘==’, ‘+’ etc…

You must have worked with such methods without knowing them to be as magic methods. Magic methods can be identified with their names which start with __ and ends with __ like init, call, str etc. These methods are also called Dunder Methods, because of their name starting and ending with Double Underscore (Dunder).

Now there are a number of such special methods, which you might have come across too, in Python. We will just be taking an example of a few of them to understand how they work and how we can use them.

1. init

class AnyClass:
    def __init__():
        print("Init called on its own")
obj = AnyClass()

The first example is _init, _and as the name suggests, it is used for initializing objects. Init method is called on its own, ie. whenever an object is created for the class, the init method is called on its own.

The output of the above code will be given below. Note how we did not call the init method and it got invoked as we created an object for class AnyClass.

Init called on its own

2. add

Let’s move to some other example, add gives us the ability to access the built in syntax feature of the character +. Let’s see how,

class AnyClass:
    def __init__(self, var):
        self.some_var = var
    def __add__(self, other_obj):
        print("Calling the add method")
        return self.some_var + other_obj.some_var
obj1 = AnyClass(5)
obj2 = AnyClass(6)
obj1 + obj2
