Classification of Phonocardiograms with Convolutional Neural Networks-Figure 3. Multilayer feed forward network (Gurney, 2004)

<p>Feedforward network is a non-repeating network with the processing units or nodes in the layer, and all nodes in a layer are linked to the nodes of the previous layers. There are different weights on the connection. There is no feedback loop, the signal input can only flow in one direction. Multilayer feedforward network is feedforward ANN concept with multiple weighted layers as seen figure 3. This network is called hidden layers because it has one or more hidden layers between the input and output layers (Gurney, 2004; Tutorials Point, 2017).
