I originally wanted to make this a post about making Real Time Neural Network Visualizations which is what I need for my current projects but I think the topic is interesting enough to have an overview on the existing Artificial Neural Network Visualizations out there ( regardless of the real time element ).

WHY ? Neural Networks can be complex things, so having a visual aid can help understand and develop new ones, it worked for Turing, it should work for us.

Model views

Let’s start with model views in pseudo graph notation and the original Neural Network, The perceptron :

This will either be a simple and trivial illustration for those into ANNs or scary and complex if you are just getting started, I like to think it condenses ~ 2.5 million years of human Science and Technology, so there’s that.

For those in the second camp I tried explaining them from the ground up in simple terms:
