Before we get into the details of calculating each weight, let's review a little bit of calculus and differentiation. If you recall your favorite math class, calculus, you can determine the slope of change for any point on a function by differentiating. A calculus refresher is shown in the following diagram:
A review of basic calculus equations
In the diagram, we have a nonlinear function, f, that describes the equation of the blue line. We can determine the slope (rate of change) on any point by differentiating to f' and solving. Recall that we can also determine the functions of local and global ...
