Lecture 11: Neural Networks I

Machine learning overview

Remaining plan:• Introduce (simple) Neural Networks (Today)• Understand how to train them (Next time)• Consider more complicated NN.• Use finished implementations, e.g. Tensorflow.

Nice to watch

Neural Networks from Scratch

Neural Networks

Recall: Logistic regression

Logistic regression

Hypothesis:

Example: Binary classifier (Pass an exam Yes/No, Spam email Yes/no)

We learned the correct parameters by maximizing the log-likelihood (by using gradient ascent)

Or mizimizing the negative of the log-likelihood (= cost function) (by using gradient descent)

Rewriting logistic regression as a neural network

Motivation: Image classification

Goal: Check if a picture contains a cat

Motivation: Image classification

Goal: Check if a picture contains a cat or dog

Motivation: Image classification. More layers

Goal: Check if a picture contains a cat or dog

Example of activation functionsThere are several common activiation functions.

Question: Why not use the identity map as an activation function?

Example of NNLet us consider a NN with 4 layers (2 hidden):
