Neat example! I had not run across convnet.js before, so thanks. Karpathy was I believe one of Hinton's students. I looked over my archived courses last night and saved all of Hinton's videos and viewgraphs from his coursera class in 2012. Really good stuff, and it is a real shame that COursera does not continually re-run that course on auto-pilot (I am sure that Hinton and his students are too busy to participate in the forums but the videos, auto-generated homework, and the quizes would stand on their own without TA intervention.)

Convolutional networks, deep learning, and machine learning in general are arguably the most disruptive technologies in our lifetimes. BTW, pardon the shameless plug, but I just started a new blog this morning to host ML resources and my own experiments: http://blog.cognition.tech/?view=classic

That course was fantastic. Work prevented me from doing the assignments, but I've also archived the materials.
