Leaky Rectified Linear Unit (LeakyReLU)

Input: vector (type: np.ndarray) , alpha (type: float)
Output: vector (type: np.ndarray)

UseCase: LeakyReLU solves the issue of dead neurons or vanishing gradient problem.
Refer the below link for more information:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectifier_(neural_networks)#Leaky_ReLU

Applications:
Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs)
Object Detection and Image Segmentation

def leaky_rectified_linear_unit(vector: np.ndarray, alpha: float) -> np.ndarray:
"""
Implements the LeakyReLU activation function.

Parameters:
vector (np.ndarray): The input array for LeakyReLU activation.
alpha (float): The slope for negative values.

Returns:
np.ndarray: The input array after applying the LeakyReLU activation.

Formula: f(x) = x if x > 0 else f(x) = alpha * x

Examples:
>>> leaky_rectified_linear_unit(vector=np.array([2.3,0.6,-2,-3.8]), alpha=0.3)
array([ 2.3 , 0.6 , -0.6 , -1.14])

>>> leaky_rectified_linear_unit(vector=np.array([-9.2,-0.3,0.45,-4.56]), \
alpha=0.067)
array([-0.6164 , -0.0201 , 0.45 , -0.30552])
