Neural Networks + Data

For my workshop course at YSDN, I chose to focus my coursework on Neural Networks + Data. Before I could design anything, I had to research a topic that was hugely new and beyond the design field. I presented to my professor, the wonderfully talented Paul Sych, my research book + project proposal on Neural Networks + Data. It was one of the few pieces I designed in university where I felt I had full creative control. 

Although my topic was a bit dense at times and have few visualizations, I really enjoyed researching, learning and exploring neural networks. 

My final project was a fun, innovative drawing tool called gnr8. The user would draw using the tablet interface, and the computer would translate the drawing into its own language. It was a touch away from neural networks but heavily involved user-based data. I couldn't have done it without a talented University of Toronto Engineering Masters student, Daniel Ly. Without his programming abilities, I would have had just a concept instead of a full working piece.
