MNIST: I trained a 3 layer MLP with a 2 neuron bottleneck layer (l2) (W1: 784x128 W2: 128x2 W3: 2x10).I trained the model for 100 epochs with a sigmoid activation function around W1, W2 + biases. I then ran 10,000 test examples and grabbed the activations from the neurons in the second layer. I wanted to know what neurons in the first layer of the MLP pushed the geometry of the bottleneck activations in particular directions. [l1 neuron inspector]
