The crucial moment when the neural network learns to generate one of the MNIST “8” digits, showing in real time the cost function curve, the neurons and synapses, and the output and input images: https://twitter.com/tsoding/status/1659633987315179531 https://twitter.com/tsoding/status/1659633987315179531 The previous parts, where he builds an educational machine learning framework in C from scratch, can be found edited in his YouTube archive: https://www.youtube.com/@TsodingDaily/videos https://www.youtube.com/@TsodingDaily/videos The original live streams happen on his Twitch channel, where this exercise has taken around 18 hours so far: https://www.twitch.tv/tsoding https://www.twitch.tv/tsoding His work has been mentioned before in HN, but not this series: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&query=tsoding&sort=byDate&type=story https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&query=tsoding&sort=byD... It is fascinating to see the picture emerge as the network learns.
