MLP

- [Instructor] So much of the progress in data science and in artificial intelligence over the last decade or so has been through the advent really the practical development of neural networks. And one kind of neural network that can be very useful for time series data is MLP, which is for Multilayer Perceptron. Now you can also use others like a recurrent neural network and these work in ways that are really somewhat mysterious. They're very complicated and how they work but in certain situations they can be remarkably accurate especially with very complex data. Now, what I'm going to show you here is there's a fair amount of custom code here because there's not quite the functionality I would want in the packages yet but I like to think it will arrive soon. And because there's so much code I'm going to be going through it rather quickly but you'll be able to explore some of this as you have more time and more interest in…
