NaN on experiment for nmist data.

[Ricardo Román-Brenes]

Hello.
I am trying to use your SET MLP implementation in a bunch of data from NMIST. I load the data with the following function I wrote:

def load_fashion_mnist_data(no_training_samples, no_testing_samples, filepath):

    data = np.load(filepath)

    x = data['Y_train']
    index_train = np.arange(data["X_train"].shape[0])
    np.random.shuffle(index_train)

    index_test = np.arange(data["X_test"].shape[0])
    np.random.shuffle(index_test)

    x_train = data["X_train"][index_train[0:no_training_samples], :]
    y_train = data["Y_train"][index_train[0:no_training_samples], :]
    x_test = data["X_test"][index_test[0:no_testing_samples], :]
    y_test = data["Y_test"][index_test[0:no_testing_samples], :]

    # normalize in 0..1
    x_train = x_train / 255.
    x_test = x_test / 255.

    return x_train.astype('float64'), y_train.astype('float64'), x_test.astype('float64'), y_test.astype('float64')

After a couple of epochs I come up with this error in the operation:
self.pdw[index] = self.momentum * self.pdw[index] - self.learning_rate * dw

Full traceback:

FloatingPointError: underflow encountered in multiply

I am guessing that there's a number in one of the arrays that gets smaller and smaller and smaller. Is there somebody around that could give me a hand to prevent this from happening?
