eluLayer — Create an ELU layer compatibility object.

eluLayer creates metadata for ELU activation layers.

Syntax

layer = eluLayer
layer = eluLayer(alpha)
layer = eluLayer(___, Name, Value)

How eluLayer works

  • A leading numeric scalar sets Alpha; the default alpha is 1.
  • Name, Description, and other common options are stored as properties.

GPU memory and residency

Layer construction is host metadata work and has no provider kernel.

Example

Create ELU

layer = eluLayer(0.5, 'Name', 'elu1')

Expected output:

`layer.Alpha` stores `0.5`.

Using eluLayer with coding agents

Open a RunMat example with live inputs, then ask the agent to explain how eluLayer changes the result.

Run a small eluLayer example, explain the result, then change one input and compare the output.
