Multilayer perceptron is a classifier based on the feedforward artificial neural network and consists of multiple layers.

Each layer is fully connected to the next layer in the network. See Multilayer Perceptron Classifier (MLPC) for details.¹

The MultiLayerPerceptron-AS node in watsonx.ai Studio is implemented in Spark. To use a this node, you must set up an upstream Type node. The MultiLayerPerceptron-AS node will read input values from the Type node (or from the Types of an upstream import node).
