This paper focuses on deriving and validating the fractional-order form of rectified linear unit activation function and its linear and nonlinear variants. The linear variants include the leaky and parametric, whereas the nonlinear variants include the exponential, sigmoid-weighted, and Gaussian error functions. Besides, a standard formula has been created and used while developing the fractional form of linear variants. Moreover, different expansion series such as Maclaurin and Taylor have been used while designing the fractional version of nonlinear variants. A simulation study has been conducted to validate the performance of all the developed fractional activation functions utilizing a single and multilayer neural network model and to compare them with their conventional counterparts. In this simulation study, a neural network model has been created to predict the system-generated power of a Texas wind turbine. The performance has been evaluated by varying the activation function in the hidden and output layers with the developed functions for single and multilayer networks. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
