Increasing errors with MultiLayerNetworkExternalErrors.java Example

[Saurabh7]

Hi,

I am trying to using train a simple 2 layer network on a simple synthetic dataset. With two features X1 and X2. and lables: y = X1^2 + X2^2

I am calculating the error for each epoch manually and using the errors to call backprop, similar to the MultiLayerNetworkExternalErrors.java example

The prediction error is increasing with each epoch, I would have expected decreasing errors with on this simple dataset. Could someone help me with if the issue is with how I am using dl4j methods ?
