Abstract: Abstract Artificial neural networks were first conceived decades ago and have been an important part of machine learning and artificial intelligence ever since. The basic idea behind neural networks is to combine linear combinations and nonlinear functions into layers such that they can approximate arbitrary functions. Neural networks have been used to great effect for example in image classification and recognition once the computational power and suitable algorithms to train large neural networks had become available. In this chapter, we implement a neural network and train it using backpropagation in a fully selfcontained program. Using tens of thousands of scanned images, we train the neural network to recognize handwritten digits and discuss important aspects of training neural networks.
