The Modern Mathematics of Deep Learningexplained for non-mathematicians

Coordinate of a vector-valued function

Penguin learning project

The project uses 342 complete Palmer penguin records: 240 training-pool and 102 held-out rows. The selected training rows determine feature scaling and model parameters. Source CSV

This project trains weights with softmax, unlike the homepage lab, which uses nearest species averages. Same penguin measurements; different classification methods. Predictions can differ.

Functions and derivatives · Describe maps and how their outputs change.

Project vectors have two features; the training matrix has n rows and two columns. Mathematical tools may operate on these values when their assumptions apply.

Consider this concept alongside the project; its source assumptions may differ. These observations do not prove a theorem.

Input: 12 × 2; Held-out evaluation: 102 · #58 · 40.6 mm, 193 mm. Known answer: Adélie; Prediction: Adélie · [≈0.7383, ≈0.2444, ≈0.01737].

Used in these source sections: 1.2.2 Can the network express the answer?

The notation (g(x))ᵢ selects entry i of the vector returned by g at x.

A vector-valued prediction can be inspected one coordinate at a time.

Source formula example

x↦(g(x))ix\mapsto(g(x))_{i}

illustration · The example uses one particular function and two output coordinates.

Symbols

gg
A vector-valued function.
xx
An input.
ii
A one-based coordinate index.

Source formula example

This source example uses its own inputs and assumptions. Editing it does not change the project.

Edit a value or the code, then run the example. This is a finite demonstration, not a proof of the paper’s theorem.
