Drawing graphs

Notice how nice some of the graphs are in textbooks (for example, from AIMA 3rd ed.)?

Well you could draw them too with graphviz (dot language).

network

Get dot here http://www.graphviz.org/Download..php

And generate the above graph by putting this in a file, e.g. simple_neural_network_diagram.dot

digraph G {
rankdir=LR
splines=line
node [fixedsize=true, label=""];
subgraph cluster_0 {
color=white;
node [style=solid,color=blue4, shape=circle];
x1 x2 x3;
label = "layer 1 (Input layer)";
}
subgraph cluster_1 {
color=white;
node [style=solid,color=red2, shape=circle];
a12 a22 a32;
label = "layer 2 (hidden layer)";
}
subgraph cluster_2 {
color=white;
node [style=solid,color=seagreen2, shape=circle];
O;
label="layer 3 (output layer)";
}
x1 -> a12;
x1 -> a22;
x1 -> a32;
x2 -> a12;
x2 -> a22;
x2 -> a32;
x3 -> a12;
x3 -> a22;
x3 -> a32;
a12 -> O
a22 -> O
a32 -> O
}

And generate it
