First Neural Network with the iris dataset (No Libraries except numpy)

• Python 3.x+
• Numpy

pip install numpy

git clone https://github.com/willryan1/FirstNN.git

Neural Network to ensure my knowledge on backpropegation is good

Used UCI Machine Learning repository however I only took 100 of the instances to make my output be -1 or 1. Made it easier for me to use the tanh activation function.

1. sepal length in cm
2. sepal width in cm
3. petal length in cm
4. petal width in cm

1. Iris Setosa - -1
2. Iris Versicolour - 1

1. commenting
2. add third attribute (maybe use cross entropy)

Notes:

1. Created 2 years ago when I was a junior in highschool (its not very good)
2. Did the same thing in java but I can't find it on my computer :(
3. Used youtube videos such as 3Blue1Brown's videos on Neural Networks
4. Commenting
