About

AI Playground

Explore deep learning concepts by experimenting with AI. Draw and have the AI guess colors based on your input, then visualize and modify the AI's 'brain' to understand how it learns.

Highlights
  • Experiment with machine learning
  • AI color guessing from drawings
  • Visualize AI 'brain' (graph)
  • Modify AI parameters
  • Test different inputs
  • Uses Apple MLCompute framework

Discover deep learning by experimenting how machines learn. Sketch a drawing and let the AI guess how to color the sheet according to your input: Start the training and observe how the machine infers the relation between coordinates (input) and color (output) from the dots you've drawn. To understand the "brain" of the AI (the "graph") you can change its parameters and observe how different configurations lead to different performance. AI Playground also allows you to visualize the graph and test different inputs (x and y) to see how the AI transforms coordinates to color. AI Playground uses Apple MLCompute framework.

Learn how a neural network works by building and training one yourself. LearnML takes you through four steps: Data, Model, Train and Try it. START WITH A WORKING EXAMPLE Make your first prediction with a ready-to-use even-or-odd model. Short explanations show what each step does and what to try next. LEARN THROUGH THREE GUIDED LESSONS • Classify numbers as even or odd. • Predict a temperature from previous values. • Explore image classification with animal photos. The temperature examples are simulated learning data, not a weather forecast service. BUILD AND EXPERIMENT Choose number, vector or image inputs. Edit examples, select the correct answers and build a model from dense, convolution, pooling, activation and dropout layers. Start with a matching model or change its architecture and training settings. TRAIN ON YOUR DEVICE Watch progress and compare training and test metrics. Stop a run when you need to. Try a new number, set of values or photo after training. Predictions can be wrong: use them to explore what the model learned. KEEP YOUR WORK Experiments, examples, trained models and lesson progress are saved locally between launches. Rename and duplicate experiments, keep successful training runs, or export and import an experiment as a JSON file. Interrupted training can be started again from the restored experiment. MADE FOR IPHONE AND IPAD Follow one step at a time on iPhone. Use the sidebar on iPad and view a lesson's explanation beside its practice area when space allows. English and Russian interfaces are included, with support for larger text and improved accessibility controls. No account or cloud training is required. Choose your own photos or use the built-in examples.
