Deep Learning - Deep Neural Network for Beginners Using Python - Sigma Prime

The video tutorial covers the implementation of a neural network, focusing on feedforward and backpropagation processes. It explains how to calculate derivatives within the network, using a simplified model with weights and biases. The tutorial introduces vectorized programming to efficiently compute derivatives and highlights the derivative of the sigmoid function, known as Sigma prime, which will be used in future lessons.

What is the primary focus of the initial discussion on neural networks in the video?

• Designing a new neural network architecture

• Exploring the history of neural networks

• Discussing the applications of neural networks
