Backpropagation, intuitively | Deep Learning Chapter 3

While we're at this, I found the explainations by 3Brown1Blue to be very intuitive when it comes to neural networks, especially for folks who're new and don't necessarily grasp concepts when explained primarily through math. What is backpropagation really doing? [VIDEO] His other videos on this topic are just as good.

I'm in the same boat. For long time, I was interested in AI but at the same time intimidated by math. I'm relatively comfortable with discrete mathematics and classical algorithms and at the same time calculus and linear algebra is completely foreign to me. Also, I do not accept way to learn ML without good understanding of core principles behind it. So math is a must. A few months ago, I stumbled upon very amazing YouTube Channel 3Blue1Brown which explains math in very accessible way and at the same time I got feeling that I finally started understanding core ideas behind linear algebra and calculus. Just recently he published 4 videos about deep neural networks: [LINK] [LINK] [VIDEO] [LINK] So my fear of ML was gone away and I'm very excited to explore whole new world for neural networks and other things like support vector machines etc

This has a lot of words, but not enough content. I recommend 3Blue1Brown's neural net videos instead: [VIDEO]
