Perceptron Learning Worksheet
This is an interactive spreadsheet with 5 sheets, each demonstrating a different perceptron learning example. The user places random points on a graph, sees their outcome, and the computer updates the weights based on its predictions. The user can alter the initial weights as well as the alpha, and can input any points on the graph. This example demonstrates a 2-variable AI learning algorithm.
