Neural Network initialization?

Hi, for the ones familiar with Neural Network , does this code initialize weights and biaises, or should I initialize them ? thank you ! n=5; net=feedforwardnet(n); net=configure(net,inputs,targets);

MATLAB will automatically initialize unweighted nets before training.

MATLAB will continue to train a preweighted net

Therefore, if you are training a net multiple times in a for loop, you should use INIT or CONFIGURE at the top of the loop to initialize a new design.

I have posted zillions of examples of double for loop designs in both the NEWSGROUP (comp.soft-sys.matlab) and ANSWERS. Search

Hope this helps

Thank you for formally accepting my answer
