How can I implement a multilayer social network in R?

How can I implement an artificial neural network in a microcontroller?

• can I implement artificial neural network in an 8-bit microcontroller? what are the requirements of the hardware needed to implement ANN?

• Answer:

  I  will assume that you only plan on implementing the forward-propagation phase (i.e. using a trained neural network to classify new samples. The network itself is learned in another machine).   The main requirement is being able to do floating-point operations. You also need to have some sort of storage for the model's parameters (i.e. the parameters that were learned by the neural network).   In general, in the forward-propagation phase, ANNs implement matrix-vector multiplication followed by the application of a non-linear function. If you can do the following operations, you can implement the feed-forward phase:   1) Floating-point product 2) Floating-point sum 3) Calculate exp (exponentiation).
