💡 Pro tip: This is one of those techniques that will make you look like a data science wizard! Linear Regression from Scratch - Made Simple!

Linear regression forms the foundation of predictive modeling by establishing relationships between variables. This example shows you how to build a linear regression model using only NumPy, implementing gradient descent optimization to find the best parameters that minimize the mean squared error.

Ready for some cool stuff? Here’s how we can tackle this:

import numpy as np

class LinearRegression:
    def __init__(self, learning_rate=0.01, iterations=1000):
        self.lr = learning_rate
        self.iterations = iterations
        self.weights = None
        self.bias = None
        
    def fit(self, X, y):
        # Initialize parameters
        n_samples, n_features = X.shape
        self.weights = np.zeros(n_features)
        self.bias = 0
        
        # Gradient descent
        for _ in range(self.iterations):
            y_predicted = np.dot(X, self.weights) + self.bias
            
            # Compute gradients
            dw = (1/n_samples) * np.dot(X.T, (y_predicted - y))
            db = (1/n_samples) * np.sum(y_predicted - y)
            
            # Update parameters
            self.weights -= self.lr * dw

    def predict(self, X):
        return np.dot(X, self.weights) + self.bias

            self.bias -= self.lr * db
    
    def predict(self, X, threshold=0.5):
        linear_pred = np.dot(X, self.weights) + self.bias
        y_pred = self.sigmoid(linear_pred)
        return (y_pred >= threshold).astype(int)

# Example usage
X = np.array([[0, 0], [0, 1], [1, 0], [1, 1]])

A complete implementation of a recurrent neural network that handles sequential data processing. This version includes backpropagation through time (BPTT) and various gating mechanisms for handling long-term dependencies.

Don’t worry, this is easier than it looks! Here’s how we can tackle this:
