    Debugging a Backprop Neural Network: Issues & Solutions

    I am trying for the first time in 5 years, to make a n- layer, m-width backprop neural network from scratch, My issue is, I've tried training it on XOR, where it returns 0.48 for any of the inputs instead of 1 for half of them and 0 for the other half, if you give it a dataset where the outputs...

    A Mixture density neural network prediction bias

    Hello! I am using a mixture density network (MDN) to make some predictions. My model is very simple with one hidden layer only with 10 nodes (the details of the network shouldn't matter for my question but I can provide more if needed). Also my MDN has only one gaussian component which basically...

    Capacitor Network - Series or Parallel?

    My textbook solution states that 1 & 2 are in parallel and so is 3 & 4 and those 2 are in series. That is, (1 P 2) S (3 P 4). My thinking is such: points A & B are of same potential, say V, C & D are of same potential, say x and E & F are are of same potential, say 0. So I can say that 1 and 3...
