0 to set the numbers, amounts, etc. in a computer program so that it is ready to start working
2 to prepare a computer disk for use so that it can store and read data
The connection weights are initialized to small random values.
We first arbitrarily initialize them, and then proceed with the two steps mentioned above.
For acyclic graphs, modules are initialized during a depth first traversal starting from the module containing the entry point of the application.
The second approach initializes the network using machine learning techniques that are faster (albeit coarser) than neuralnetwork training.
An uninitialized actor can only be initialized by the actor which created it.
Slots are initialized with their default value unless a user value is specified.
The transfer, modeled with transfer/2, initializes data source and destination and then it moves all the packets between them (pipe_while/4).
As a result, a variable can only be inserted in a data structure if it is either ground or initialized (and thus must be old).
