Numpy-Neuron

A small, simple neural network framework built using only numpy and python (duh).

Install

pip install numpyneuron

Optimizers

Currently the learning rate in a NN object is static during training. I would like to work on developing at least the functionality for the Adam optimizer at some point. This would help prevent getting stuck in local minima of the loss function.
