Welcome back! I think, over the last few days, we have been hyping up convolutional neural networks enough such that you are probably ready to dive right in. So… Let’s, uh, motivate it first!
Why do we use a CNN? Let’s think of a toy problem to play with. Given a pattern made using two colours (let’s name them a and b, or perhaps black and white), let’s classify whether it is the “zebra” pattern" or the “checkerboard” pattern.
