Overview
This course will give you knowledge in neural networks and generally in machine learning algorithm, deep learning (algorithms and applications).
This training is more focus on fundamentals, but will help you to choose the right technology : TensorFlow, Caffe, Teano, DeepDrive, Keras, etc. The examples are made in TensorFlow.
