ABSTRACT = {The nonlinear activation functions in the deep CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) based on fluid dynamics are presented. We propose two types of activation functions by applying the so-called parametric softsign to the negative region. We use significantly the well-known TensorFlow as the deep learning framework. The CNN architecture consists of three convolutional layers with the max-pooling and one fully-connected softmax layer. The CNN approaches are applied to three benchmark datasets, namely, MNIST, CIFAR-10, and CIFAR-100. Numerical results demonstrate the workability and the validity of the present approach through comparison with other numerical performances.},
