fann_create_sparse — Creates a standard backpropagation neural network, which is not fully connected
$connection_rate,$num_layers,$num_neurons1,$num_neurons2,...$num_neuronsNCreates a standard backpropagation neural network, which is not fully connected.
connection_rateThe connection rate controls how many connections there will be in the network. If the connection rate is set to 1, the network will be fully connected, but if it is set to 0.5 only half of the connections will be set. A connection rate of 1 will yield the same result as fann_create_standard().
num_layersThe total number of layers including the input and the output layer.
num_neurons1Number of neurons in the first layer.
num_neurons2Number of neurons in the second layer.
num_neuronsNNumber of neurons in other layers.
Returns a neural network resource on success, or false on error.
