Building a Neural Network From Scratch - A Focus on Training

Neural networks allow data scientists to perform tasks like speech and image recognition, and are behind innovations like self-driving cars.

In this 2 hour workshop we will build a neural network that takes handwritten images of digits and correctly classifies them as their corresponding number.

If you attended the last workshop on neural networks, this time around we'll focus more on training the neural network -- whatever that means :)

To get the most out of this workshop, it's best to have a minimal knowledge of programming - eg. lists, dictionaries, and functions.
