Hi! I whant to know what activation functions patternnet uses for the hidden and output layers? The documentation says tansig, but I am not sure if it is used for both kinds of layers.

Patternnet uses tansig for hidden layers and softmax for output layer. You can see it using this command If you have 2 hidden layers:
net.layers{1 or 2}.transferFcn - for the hidden
net.layers{3}.transferFcn - for the output

Please also advise on how to change the transfer function for the respective layer. Thank You.

To change the transfer function for the first hidden layer to radial basis function use the following code:
net.layers{1}.transferFcn='radbas';
If you type the following command it will give you a complete list of valid transfer functions:
