Questions before you draw
Neural Network Diagram Generator FAQ
How do I draw a neural network diagram online from layer sizes?+
Create a neural network diagram online by entering one Label,count pair per line: Input,4, Hidden,6, then Output,3. Use 2–10 layers with 1–10,000 neurons each. The preview updates when the list is valid. Choose colors and spacing, check the counts, then download SVG or PNG without writing drawing code.
What can I export with this neural network diagram generator online?+
Export SVG and PNG diagrams, CSV parameter reports, and JSON settings for later editing. No account, watermark, or AI credits are required. You can configure dense layers, load four examples, preview changes, and compare architectures. Calculations and exports run in your browser.
Which models does this neural network architecture diagram generator support?+
The tool draws fully connected feedforward networks, including MLPs and dense autoencoders. For convolution kernels and feature maps, use a dedicated convolutional neural network diagram generator. This version does not draw CNN, RNN, or Transformer architectures, train models, or import PyTorch or Keras code.
How does the neural network parameter calculator count weights and biases?+
For each adjacent dense layer pair, multiply input units by output units to count weights. Add one bias per output unit when biases are enabled. The layer table shows output-by-input matrix dimensions and parameter shares. Totals exclude convolution, weight sharing, normalization, recurrent connections, and attention.
How can I compare neural network architectures and export a parameter report?+
Pin the current network as a baseline, then edit layers or load another example. Compare weights, biases, total parameters, and the percentage change. Download CSV to keep both architectures, their layer dimensions, parameter shares, and total differences. A smaller count does not establish better accuracy or faster inference.
How are large neural network diagrams displayed without losing the full counts?+
Layers above eight neurons show eight circles, an ellipsis, and an omitted-node count. The full layer size remains labeled, and all statistics use the actual sizes. For example, 784–128–64–10 has 109,184 weights plus 202 biases when enabled, even though only 32 circles appear.
How do I export a neural network diagram for papers, slides, or LaTeX?+
Download SVG for editable vector shapes and labels, or PNG at twice the diagram dimensions for documents and slides. For a LaTeX workflow, use the PNG or convert the SVG to a format your setup supports. This tool does not export PDF, TikZ, or LaTeX source code.
How do I save a neural network diagram and edit it later?+
Save JSON to keep the current layer list, labels, title, colors, spacing, bias setting, and connection visibility. Load that file to restore the network. The pinned comparison baseline is not included: it remains only until you clear it or reload the page. Download comparison CSV before leaving.
