You made it to the Neural Network series finale! It’s been a fascinating journey, but there’s still work to be done and questions to answer. So saddle up, grab a drink, and let’s jump right in. The Jupyter notebooks mentioned throughout can be found here. Experiment 1-1: Less Filters It’s often the case that clients […]
How Useful is Feature Visualization? Welcome back! This post marks Part 3 in our ongoing series on neural understanding, where we work through a practical example with some representative techniques in order to understand what and how a neural network has learned. While Part 2 walked through a sample problem, this post contains a collection […]
THE RUNNING EXAMPLE Welcome back! For those just joining us, we encourage you to take a look at our first post in the neural understanding series to make sure you are up to date. In that article, we described our intention to take a neural network through the various techniques of neural understanding to see […]
The HoloLens 2 is marketed as a mixed reality headset/smartglasses hybrid, designed first and foremost for “front line workers”.
