Without activation functions, a neural network is just a giant linear equation, making it incapable of learning complex non-linear patterns.
Rectified Linear Unit (ReLU) is an activation function defined as f(x) = max(0, x). It helps speed up training and prevents vanishing gradients.
Generally, any neural network with two or more hidden layers is considered a deep neural network.
