Hi I've been working on a neural network to tackle the MNIST dataset, but when I run the code the accuracy begins to increase but eventually results in 0.098 accuracy, I also encounter an overflow error in exp when calculating the SoftMax values. I have tried to debug my code but I don't understand where I'm going wrong. If anyone can point me in the right direction that would be great and if you can't find an error could you give me any tips on techniques to try to debug this. Thanks in advance.

(Here and below I skip coding-style remarks that are not essential in this context. Like that this should be a class method or a stand-alone function etc.)

version. This one works: def ReLu_Derv(self, x):
return (x > 0).astype(int)
BackPropagation
: e1 = self.w2.T.dot(e2) * self.ReLu_Derv(self.a1)
With these amendments, I managed to achieve 91.0% accuracy after 100 iteration with LR=0.1. I loaded MNIST from Keras with this code:
(train_images, train_labels), (test_images, test_labels) = tf.keras.datasets.mnist.load_data()
X = train_images.reshape(-1, 28*28).T
Y = train_labels
