<p>In <a href="https://github.com/mlpack/mlpack/pull/686#discussion_r66130281">src/mlpack/methods/ne/genome.hpp</a>:</p>
<pre style='color:#555'>&gt; +
&gt; +      // Loop neurons to calculate neurons&#39; activation.
&gt; +      for (unsigned in j=aNumInput; j&lt;aNeuronGenes.size(); ++j) {
&gt; +        double x = aNeuronGenes[j].aInput;  // TODO: consider bias. Difference?
&gt; +        aNeuronGenes[j].aInput = 0;
&gt; +
&gt; +        double y = 0;
&gt; +        switch (aNeuronGenes[j].Type()) { // TODO: revise the implementation.
&gt; +          case SIGMOID:                   // TODO: more cases.
&gt; +            y = sigmoid(x);
&gt; +            break;
&gt; +          case RELU:

<p>maybe using same strategies used in sigmoid function in <a href="https://github.com/mlpack/mlpack/blob/637809fec8d341829e4cd122cf5a385e5e219c9b/src/mlpack/methods/sparse_autoencoder/sparse_autoencoder_function.hpp#L74">sparse_autoencoder</a> is faster?</p>

<p>Unrelated to this, I think activation functions like relu, sigmoid , etc are implemented many times. I think we can put it in core?<br>
It is also implemented in <a href="https://github.com/mlpack/mlpack/blob/d2e353468b8fce9fc1ee46799860f3860c4c8db9/src/mlpack/methods/ann/layer/base_layer.hpp">artificial neural net</a></p>
