<|assistant|>Sure! Here’s how you can integrate batch normalization after computing activations:
python
import numpy as np
def batch_norm(Z):
mean = np.mean(Z, axis=0)
variance = np.var(Z, axis=0)
Z_norm = (Z - mean) / np.sqrt(variance + np.finfo(float).eps)
return Z_norm
def forward_propagation(X,w,b,Lambda):
m = X.shape[0]
W1 = w['W1']
b1 = w['b1']
W2 = w['W2']
b2 = w['b2']
Z1= np.dot(X,W1)+b1 # size=(1000,25)
Z1_normed = batch_norm(Z1) # Batch normalization step added here!
H= np.maximum(0,Z1_normed) # size=(1000x25)
Z2=np.dot(H,W2)+b2 # size=(1000x10)
Z2_normed = batch_norm(Z2) # Batch normalization step added here!
exp_scores=np.exp(Z2_normed)#size=(1000x10)
This adds a `batch_norm` function that normalizes `Z` before applying any activation functions.<|end|>
<|user|>I also want dropout regularization integrated right after batch normalization.<|end|>
<|assistant|>Got it! Here’s how you can add dropout regularization right after batch normalization:
python
import numpy as np
def batch_norm(Z):
mean = np.mean(Z, axis=0)
variance = np.var(Z, axis=0)
Z_normed = (Z - mean) / np.sqrt(variance + np.finfo(float).eps)
return Z_normed
def dropout(A, dropout_rate):
D=np.random.rand(*A.shape)<(1-dropout_rate)
A *= D # Apply mask element-wise multiplication.
A /= (1-dropout_rate) # Scale the values by dividing by dropout rate.
return A,D # Return both scaled activations & mask.
dropout_rate=0.5 # Example dropout rate; adjust as needed.
def forward_propagation(X,w,b,Lambda):
m = X.shape[0]
W1 = w['W1']
b1 = w['b1']
W2 = w['W2']
b2 = w['b2']
Z1= np.dot(X,W1)+b1 # size=(1000x25)
Z1_normed=batch_norm(Z1) # Batch norm step added here!
H,drop_mask_H=dropout(Z1_normed,dropout_rate)# Dropout step added here!
H=np.maximum(0,H)
Z2=np.dot(H,W2)+b2 # size=(1000x10)
Z2_normed=batch_norm(Z2) # Batch norm step added here!
exp_scores,drop_mask_exp_scores=dropout(Z2_normed ,dropout_rate)# Dropout step added here!
exp_scores=np.exp(exp_scores)
This adds a `dropout` function which applies dropout regularization right after batch normalization.<|end|>
<|user|>Can we make activation functions customizable? So users can pass their own activation functions?<|end|>
<|assistant|>Certainly! Here’s how you can modify your code to accept custom activation functions:
python
import numpy as np
def batch_norm(Z):
...
def dropout(A , dropout_rate ):
...
dropout_rate=0.5
def relu(x): return np.maximum(0,x)
default_activation_functions={
"hidden": relu,
"output": lambda x : x,
}
def forward_propagation(X,w,b,Lambda ,activation_functions=default_activation_functions):
m=X.shape [0]
W1=w ['W' + str( len(w)) ]
biases=[b[key]for key in sorted(b.keys())]
for i,(weight_key,bias_key )in enumerate(zip(sorted(w.keys()),sorted(b.keys())) ):
if i==len(biases)-1:
break
Wi=w [weight_key]
bi=bias_key
Zi=np.dot(X,Wi)+bi
Zi_batchnorm=batch_nor(m,Zi )
Dropout_Zi,Dmask_Zi=drop_out( Zi_batchnorm ,dropout_rate )
if i

Given these considerations, let's create an excerpt related to quantum mechanics—a field inherently rich with complex ideas—and weave into it elements requiring deductive reasoning and understanding counterfactuals alongside factual knowledge beyond basic principles taught at introductory levels. ## Rewritten Excerpt ## "In an alternate universe governed by slightly altered physical laws—where Planck's constant has been theorized to differ minutely from our known universe—the implications on quantum entanglement phenomena could potentially revolutionize our understanding of non-locality principles inherent within quantum mechanics frameworks established thus far. Suppose researchers postulate that within this alternate reality framework—a universe wherein Planck's constant has been incremented by a factor infinitesimally smaller than one-thousandth—it leads theorists like Dr. Elara Minsky positing that entangled particles could exhibit behaviors diverging significantly from Bell’s theorem predictions observed under Earth’s constants conditions." "If Dr. Minsky’s hypotheses hold true—that increased Planck constants would resultantly alter quantum states’ coherence times significantly enough—it stands reasoned logically then that traditional encryption methods reliant upon quantum cryptography would face vulnerabilities previously unaccountable under classical physics paradigms." "This conjecture rests heavily upon counterfactual assumptions about fundamental constants’ roles across universes differing minutely yet significantly enough from our own—challenging entrenched notions about uniformity across cosmic expanses." ## Suggested Exercise ## Given Dr. Elara Minsky's hypothesis regarding altered Planck constant values influencing quantum entanglement behaviors diverging from Bell’s theorem predictions observed under Earth’s conditions—what could be inferred about potential vulnerabilities introduced into traditional encryption methods relying upon quantum cryptography? A) Traditional encryption methods would remain unaffected because changes in Planck constant values do not influence macroscopic physical phenomena directly linked with cryptographic protocols. B) Traditional encryption methods might become more secure because increased Planck constants would enhance quantum states’ coherence times beyond current technological exploitation capabilities. C) Traditional encryption methods could face unprecedented vulnerabilities due potentially shorter coherence times altering expected behaviors within entangled particle systems foundational for cryptographic security assumptions. D) The alteration would render traditional encryption methods obsolete overnight due solely to direct impacts on classical physics paradigms without intermediary effects through quantum mechanics alterations. cleanser designed specifically for use around sensitive areas such as eyes will ensure safety while still providing effective cleansing action."}} {"name": "Micellar Water", "category": "Face Cleanser", "description": {"text": "Micellar water is another gentle cleanser option suitable even around sensitive areas like eyes.", "ingredients": ["Water", "Polysorbate", "Glycerin", "Citric Acid"], "usage_instructions": ["Pour micellar water onto a cotton pad.", "Gently swipe around eyes area.", "Rinse off excess water."]}}, {"name": "Hydrating Toner", "category": "Face Cleanser", "description": {"text": "A hydrating toner formulated without alcohol will cleanse gently while maintaining skin hydration.", "ingredients": ["Water", "Glycerin", "Hamamelis Virginiana Leaf Water"], "usage_instructions": ["After cleansing your face wash off any residual cleanser.", "Apply toner using cotton pad around eyes area avoiding direct contact.", "- Gently pat dry."]}}]}
