+激活函数将非线性的特性引入到神经网络当中。

+PaddlePaddle Fluid 对大部分的激活函数进行了支持，其中有:

+
+**Fluid提供了两种使用激活函数的方式：**
+
+- 如果一个层的接口提供了 :code:`act` 变量（默认值为None），我们可以通过该变量指定该层的激活函数类型。该方式支持常见的激活函数: :code:`relu`, :code:`tanh`, :code:`sigmoid`, :code:`identity`。
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+	conv2d = fluid.layers.conv2d(input=data, num_filters=2, filter_size=3, act="relu")
+
+
+- Fluid为每个Activation提供了接口，我们可以显式的对它们进行调用。
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+	conv2d = fluid.layers.conv2d(input=data, num_filters=2, filter_size=3)
+	relu1 = fluid.layers.relu(conv2d)
