I created a little Shiny application to demonstrate that Neural Networks are just souped up linear models: https://lucy.shinyapps.io/neural-net-linear/ This application has a neural network fit to a dataset with one predictor, x, and one outcome, y. The network has one hidden layer with three activations. You can click a “Play” button to watch how the neural network fits across 300 epochs. You can also click on the nodes of the neural network diagram to highlight each of the individual ac...
