Is my calculation of the partial derivative of the cost function with respect to a single weight in the first layer correct?

I'm trying to understand the chain rule of backpropagation. This is what I understood. Is it correct? $$ \frac{\partial E }{ \partial w} = \sum_{i} \frac{\partial E }{ \partial a_i^{(l)} } (\sum_{j} \...

Is there any wrong in my focal loss derivation?

Assume $\mathbf{X} \in R^{N, C}$ is the input of the softmax $\mathbf{P} \in R^{N, C}$, where $N$ is number of examples and $C$ is number of classes: $$\mathbf{p}_i = \left[ \frac{e^{x_{ik}}}{\sum_{j=...

Why is the change in cost wrt bias in neural network equal to error in the neuron?

While reading the book on neural networks by Michael Nielson, I had a problem understanding equation (BP3), which is $$ \frac{\partial C}{\partial b_{j}^{l}}=\delta_{j}^{l} \tag{BP3}\label{BP3}, $$ ...
