But what is a neural network? | Chapter 1, Deep learning

What are the neurons, why are there layers, and what is the math underlying it?

Thanks for the sharp eyes that caught that! For those who want to learn more, I highly recommend the book by Michael Nielsen introducing neural networks and deep learning: There are two neat things about this book. First, it’s available for free, so consider joining me in making a donation Nielsen’s way if you get something out of it. And second, it’s centered around walking through some code and data which you can download yourself, and which covers the same example that I introduce in this video. Yay for active lear
