    Thanks for watching this, and I really hope it was helpful!
    A quick introduction - I'm Alex from Singapore, a PhD student at NUS working on machine learning, computer vision and (I guess of course) GNNs for medical imaging and healthcare applications.
    I've recently been thinking about doing explainer videos about machine learning or tech, and have always found great value in visual animations of math concepts.
    So, thanks Grant Sanderson, James Schloss and the 3b1b team for organizing SoME1 which pushed me to pick up After Effects, research, script and put this together over the past month.
