or
A neuron that performs the OR logical computation. It generates the following truth table:
A | B | C |
---|---|---|
0 | 0 | 0 |
0 | 1 | 1 |
1 | 0 | 1 |
1 | 1 | 1 |
It is inspired by McCulloch & Pitts' 1943 paper 'A Logical Calculus of the Ideas Immanent in Nervous Activity'.
It doesn't contain any parameters.
It takes as input two column vectors of zeros and ones. It outputs a single column vector of zeros and ones.
Its mechanism is outlined in Figure 10-3 of Aurelien Geron's book 'Hands-On Machine Learning with Scikit-Learn, Keras, and TensorFlow'.
Like all the other neurons in Figure 10-3, it is activated when at least two of its input connections are active.
Usage
import torch
import torch.nn as nn
from huggingface_hub import PyTorchModelHubMixin
# Let's create two column vectors containing `0`s and `1`s.
batch = {'a': torch.tensor([[0], [0], [1], [1]]), 'b': torch.tensor([[0], [1], [0], [1]])}
class OR(nn.Module, PyTorchModelHubMixin):
def __init__(self):
super().__init__()
self.operation = "C = A OR B"
def forward(self, x):
a = x['a']
b = x['b']
inputs = torch.cat([a, a, b, b], axis=1)
column_sum = torch.sum(inputs, dim=1, keepdim=True)
output = (column_sum >= 2).long()
return output
# Instantiate:
logical_or = OR.from_pretrained("sadhaklal/or")
# Forward pass:
output = logical_or(batch)
print(output)
