Understanding AI from Scratch – Neural Networks Course
Learn neural networks hands-on with Dr Radu's self-driving car playground: one neuron, a genetic algorithm, two inputs, hidden layers, more outputs, traffic rules, a compass sensor, shortest paths, Dijkstra's algorithm and AI agents, and a final challenge.
What you'll learn
- Explain how a single neuron works
- Tune networks with a genetic algorithm
- Add inputs, hidden layers and outputs
- Teach a car traffic rules
- Implement Dijkstra's shortest path
- Combine pathfinding with AI agents
