In that book, Nielsen explains how to implement a basic feedforward neural network to classify MNIST digits from the ground up in Numpy,…
It's a fair question. I have been telling myself for around three years that I will start a blog, but I never got around to do it. I always felt that I would not be able to quite implement in practice a website which would align with my conception of what I'd like my blog to be.
