The feedforward neural network is widely applied in various machine learning architectures, in which the synaptic weight between layers plays an important role in the weak signal propagation. In this paper, the five-layer Izhikevich neural networks with excitatory or excitatory–inhibition neurons are employed to study the effect of Gaussian white noise and synaptic weight between layers on the weak signal transmission characteristics of the subthreshold excitatory postsynaptic currents signal imposed on the input layer. It can be found that th...
