Data Science and Machine Learning (Theory and Projects) A to Z - Gradient Descent in CNNs: Applying Chain Rule

The video tutorial introduces notations and the chain rule for differentiation, building on previous knowledge. It explains how to apply the chain rule to compute derivatives, particularly focusing on the loss function and its relation to parameters. The tutorial also covers the derivative of the sigmoid function and its application in neural networks, emphasizing the importance of these concepts in machine learning. The video concludes with a preview of upcoming topics, including more complex derivative computations.

What is the significance of the term '1/2' in the derivative of the loss function?

How do you compute the derivative with respect to the bias in a neural network?

Discuss the role of the chain rule in neural networks and its applications.
