set values to 0. or 1.

[flobotics]

hi,
in line 84 you wrote as comment:

set the pixels to all be 0. or 1.

but with the following code

cv2.threshold(screen_resized_grayscaled, 1, 255, cv2.THRESH_BINARY)

you set them to 0 or 255. So the input data is not normalized, or? So , if you mostly pipe in zeros, wouldnt then the neurons not all get also zero ? x*W+b ?

Hi Flo, sorry yes the comment is wrong the values will be all 0. or 255. If fact I should probably change the threshold be 0. to 1. I think that may work better... I will need to investigate a little.

Sending most of the neurons input values of 0 is in itself not a problem. If that is what the input it is, that is what it is.
