Machine learning with neural networks is sometimes said to be part art and part science. Dr. James McCaffrey of Microsoft Research teaches both with a full-code, step-by-step tutorial. A binary ...

Simplex optimization is one of the simplest algorithms available to train a neural network. Understanding how simplex optimization works, and how it compares to the more commonly used back-propagation ...

Real data can be hard to get, so researchers are turning to synthetic data to train their artificial intelligence systems. On a sunny day in late 1987, a Chevy van drove down a curvy wooded path on ...
