where ∘ denotes function composition. For this network architecture there is first an affine mapping from m dimensions to n1, followed by a non-linear activation function. The result is a vector with n1 elements. Then follows another affine function from n1 dimensions to n2 dimensions, followed by a non-linear activation function. The final results are obtained by a third affine mapping from n2 dimensions to n dimensions, followed by the softmax function. The output vector fw(x) consists of n positive numbers that sum to 1. The parameters w of the artificial neural network consists of all the parameters of the affine layers, that is, w = (w1,w2,w3).

The equation for Pp was fashioned by a composition of operability functions. Function composition is when one function is expressed as a composition (or nesting) of two or more other functions.* Function composition applies in FDNA when the operability function of one node is a composition of the operability functions of two or more other nodes. Next, we discuss forms the operability function f might assume. Selecting a specific form is central to FDNA and a major flexibility feature of the approach.
