1- Is it possible to avoid local minima by combining a crude form of simulated annealing with backprop?<BR><BR>specifically, make the activation or weights stochastic, and gradually reduce the ...

Blame is the main game when it comes to learning. I know that sounds bizarre, but hear me out. Neural circuits of thousands, if not more, neurons control every single one of your thoughts, reasonings, ...

Many new data scientists have voiced what they feel is the lack of a satisfying way to learn the concepts of back propagation/gradient computation in neural networks when taking undergrad level ML ...
