modReLU is an activation that is a modification of a ReLU. It is a pointwise nonlinearity, σ_(modReLU)(z) : C →C, which affects only the absolute value of a complex number, defined as:

σ_(modReLU)(z) = (|z| + b)z/(|z|) if |z| + b ≥0 σ_(modReLU)(z) = 0 if |z| + b ≤0

where b ∈ℝ is a bias parameter of the nonlinearity. For a nₕ dimensional hidden space we learn nₕ nonlinearity bias parameters, one per dimension.

Papers per year the archive tags with this method, by the paper's archive date (6 dated). Bars are counts, not a trend claim.

Components: the archive holds no method-to-method composition, so PwC's Components table cannot be rebuilt; the Papers list carries no Results column for the same reason (the archive does not join its leaderboard rows to method tags).
