Neuron as we know it
- [Instructor] Welcome back to our exploration of neural networks. Last time, we used the example of identifying an Australian Labradoodle. In this video, we are going to understand a single neuron's functioning using another real-world scenario, predicting whether someone will purchase a theater unlimited subscription. We will consider factors like age, income, and education. And these 0s and 1s are representing whether this person buys the unlimited theater subscription or not. Let's start with age. This is a scatter plot of our data, age on the x-axis and y on the purchased or not data. Let's simply fit a linear line to this. We use linear regression to predict the probability of purchasing a subscription based solely on age. It's like drawing a best fit line through a scatter plot of age against subscription decisions. And this is the linear regression formula up above. Linear regression, as we see, is not perfect for this particular problem, especially if our dataset has…
