  "content": "<p>sorry if this is an inappropriate question here....\nI am new to Neural Networks and have only completed introductory problems like categorizing photos of cats and dogs or santa and not santa.  My problem right now is figuring out how to preprocess and feed the training data to a NN.  Given that there are labeled photos, attrubute_ids and attribute_names, how are they all to be combined as an input to be fed to the first layer?  It looks like some examples combined everything (photo_id, all attribute_ids, attribute_names) in one csv column and fed to the NN that way but I'm not certain.  Any direction, intuition or literature would be greatly appreciated; thanks!</p>",
