It says the input has 3 dimensions, two spacial dimensions and one feature dimentions. So it would be a 2d grid of numbers. Like a grayscale photo. But at 00:38 it shows the numbers and it looks like each of the blocks positioned in 3D space holds a value. Which would make it a 4 dimensional input.
I don't think these are useful at all. If you implement a simple network that approximates 1D functions like sin or learn how image blurring works with kernels and then move into ML/AI that gave me a much better understanding.
Thank you for saying this. I often find this "glib" explains of ML stuff very frustrating as a human coming from an Applied Math background. It just makes me feel a bit crazy and alone to see what appears to be a certain kind of person saying "gosh" at various "explanations" when I just don't get it.
Obviously this is beautiful as art but it would also be useful to understand how exactly these visualizations are useful to people who think they are. Useful to me means you gain a new ability to extrapolate in task space (aka "understanding").
This is a fantastic educational resource! Visual animations like these make understanding complex ML concepts so much more intuitive than just reading equations.
The neural network visualization is particularly well done - seeing the forward and backward passes in action helps build the right mental model. Would be great to see more visualizations covering transformer architectures and attention mechanisms, which are often harder to grasp.
For anyone building educational tools or internal documentation for ML teams, this approach of animated explanations is really effective for knowledge transfer.

I originally had it saved as [[ https://www.r2d3.us/visual-intro-to-machine-learning-part-1/ ]] but it seems that link is gone?
