Hello! Welcome to my research blog. I am a mechanical engineer and long-time programmer specializing in engineering software. Now that I am semi-retired and have some time, I feel compelled to write about numerical analysis. I’ve become enamored with AI and neural networks (who hasn’t) and am presently climbing that learning curve. I hope you find my articles useful!

In this paper I use matrix math to explain how a neural network works and is trained. Forget about all those summation signs and circles connected to other circles with lines. It’s confusing! Using matrix math makes the topic much easier to understand. Click the link below to go to the paper.
