Although the use of Backwards Design logic in American education dates back at least to the 1950s, it received a tremendous upgrade in recent decades, especially by leading progressive educators and …

After the forward pass, we assume that the output will be used in other parts of the network, and will eventually be used to compute a scalar loss L. During the backward pass through the linear layer, we …

This process of course design is “backward” because it starts at the end (the results, the learning outcomes) and works backward to plan what assignments, exams, readings, lectures, discussions, …

In order to use the backward Euler method for a wider range of problems, we need to know how to approximately solve an implicit equation. Luckily, computational methods are available that can …

Similar improved formulas can be developed for the backward and center difference formulas, as well as for the higher-order derivatives. The formulas are summarized in the following tables.

ember 28, 2018¬ Version: 1.0 The idea of backwards analysis (or backward analysis) is a technique to analyze randomized algorithms by imagining as if it was running backwards .

Intuition: upstream gradient values propagate backwards -- we can reuse them! What about autograd? Deep learning frameworks can automatically perform backprop! As promised: A matrix example...
