Welcome to my blog 👋

I’m Darius, a computer science student at EPFL. I’m documenting my learning notes and thoughts in this blog. Here is my website if you want to check out some more info.

A beginners guide to understanding neural nets

So this is my first real post here! After studying deep learning for a while I wanted to go back to the basics and explain to myself (and others) in a straightforward and comprehensive manner how I understood the mechanisms underlying neural nets when learning about them.

hello world.

My name is Darius Foodeei and this is a blog I hope to update relatively frequently. I’m currently a computer science undergraduate at EPFL (école polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne). Interests of mine include artificial intelligence, the human brain as well as it’s intersection with computers. I’m currently learning about machine learning and artificial intelligence and I will be documenting my journey and hopefully dimistifying some terms and subjects I find interesting along the way....
