Abstract

This paper illustrates a novel method to analyze artificial neural networks so as to gain insight into
their internal functionality. To this purpose, the elements of a feedforward-backpropagation neural network, that has been trained to detect edges in images, are described in terms of differential operators of various orders and with various angles of operation.
