Network Architecture

The linear network shown below has one layer of S neurons connected to R inputs through a matrix of weights W.

Note that the figure on the right defines an S-length output vector a.

We have shown a single-layer linear network. However, this network is just as capable as multilayer linear networks. For every multilayer linear network, there is an equivalent single-layer linear network.
