Demystifying Neural Networks With Numpy
Demystifying Neural Networks: Code a NN from scratch using numpy to classify handwritten digits (MNIST) with 90%+ accuracy.
🤯 Why You Should Care Neural networks (NNs) power everything from ChatGPT to self-driving cars. But let’s be honest: Using TensorFlow/PyTorch feels like magic—until you realize you don’t know how the wand works. This post is for you if: 🧠 You want to demystify neural networks (no more black boxes!). 💻 You love coding fundamentals (goodbye model.fit(), hello raw matrices!). ⚡ You crave the satisfaction of "I built this myself!" Spoiler: By the end, you’ll code a NN that classifies handwritten digits (MNIST) with 90%+ accuracy—using only numpy. Let’s go! 🔥 The Blueprint: How Neural Nets Ac...
