why would you use a neural net on a dataset with only 700 samples, smh

The relationship in the dataset seems pretty clean and clear cut, so you don't really need as large a dataset.

If it's clean and clear cut you probably don't need deep learning either.

Then just use a GBM or some simple linear classifier

yes valid point haha. It's more fun to use a neural net :) but after many similar comments I plan on implementing a simpler approach and seeing how it compares
