Introduction

I was unable to use Google Colaboratory for quite a bit, so it took me much longer than necessary to make this post. However, I'm finally able to log back in! This is the experimental companion to the CNN explainer — all the code and analysis comparing convolutional and feed-forward architectures on MNIST digit classification are in the Colab notebook linked in the article.
