Description

Neural networks are a family of machine learning algorithms that are generating a lot of excitement. They are a technique that is inspired by how the neurons in our brains function. They are based on a simple idea: given certain parameters, it is possible to combine them in order to predict a certain result. For example, if you know the number of pixels in an image, there are ways of knowing which number is written in the image. The data that enters passes through various “ layers” in which a series of adjusted learning rules are applied by a weighted function. After passing through the last layer, the results are compared with the “correct” results, and the parameters are adjusted.

Although the algorithms and the learning process in general are complex, one the network has learned, it can freeze the various weights and function in a memory or execution mode. Google uses these types of algorithms, for example, for image searches.

There is no single definition for the meaning of Deep Learning. In general, when we talk of Deep Learning, we are referring to a group of Machine Learning algorithms based on neural networks that, as we have seen, are characterized by cascade data processing. The entrance signal passes through the various stages, and in each one, they are subjected to a non-linear transformation. This helps to extract and transform the variable according to the determined parameters (weights or boundaries). There isn’t an established limit for the number of stages that a neural network must contain to be considered Deep Learning. However, it is thought that Deep Learning arose in the 80’s, using a model which had 5 or 6 layers. It was (and is) called the neocognitron and was created by the Japanese researcher Kunihiki Fukushima. Neural networks are very effective in identifying patterns.

An example worth highlighting of the application of Deep Learning is the project carried out by Google and the Universities of Stanford and Massachusetts. It aimed to improve the natural language processing techniques of a type of AI called Recurrent Neural Network Language Model (RNNLM). It’s used for automatic translations and creating subtitles, among other thing. Basically, it builds up phrases word by words, basing each word on the previous one and in this way, it can even write poems.

Description

Wanna understand deep learning and neural networks so well, you could code them from scratch? In this course, we’ll do exactly that.

The course starts by motivating and explaining perceptrons, and then gradually works its way toward deriving and coding a multiclass neural network with stochastic gradient descent that can recognize hand-written digits from the famous MNIST dataset.

Course Goals

This course is all about understanding the fundamentals of neural networks. So, it does not discuss TensorFlow, PyTorch, or any other neural network libraries. However, by the end of this course, you should understand neural networks so well that learning TensorFlow and PyTorch should be a breeze!

Challenges

In this course, I present a number of coding challenges inside the video lectures. The general approach is, we’ll discuss an idea and the theory behind it, and then you’re challenged to implement the idea / algorithm in Python. I’ll discuss my solution to every challenge, and my code is readily available on github.

Prerequisites

In this course, we’ll be using Python, NumPy, Pandas, and good bit of calculus. ..but don’t let the math scare you. I explain everything in great detail with examples and visuals.

Deep Learning Prerequisites: The Numpy Stack in Python V2

Basic operations in Numpy, Scipy, Pandas, and Matplotlib

Vector, Matrix, and Tensor manipulation

Visualizing data

Reading, writing, and manipulating DataFrames

Requirements

  • Linear Algebra, Probability, and Python Programming

Description

Welcome! This is Deep Learning, Machine Learning, and Data Science Prerequisites: The Numpy Stack in Python (V2).

The reason I made this course is because there is a huge gap for many students between machine learning “theory” and writing actual code.

As I’ve always said: “If you can’t implement it, then you don’t understand it”.

Without basic knowledge of data manipulation, vectors, and matrices, students are not able to put their great ideas into working form, on a computer.

This course closes that gap by teaching you all the basic operations you need for implementing machine learning and deep learning algorithms.

The goal is that, after you take this course, you will learn about machine learning algorithms, and implement those algorithms in code using the tools and techniques you learned in this course.

Suggested Prerequisites:

  • linear algebra
  • probability
  • Python programming

Who this course is for:

  • Anyone who wants to implement Machine Learning algorithms

More about Combined-Cycle Power Plants

A combined-cycle power plant is an electrical power plant in which a Gas Turbine (GT) and a Steam Turbine (ST) are used in combination to produce more electrical energy from the same fuel than that would be possible from a single cycle power plant.

The gas turbine compresses air and mixes it with a fuel heated to a very high temperature. The hot air-fuel mixture moves through the blades, making them spin. The fast-spinning gas turbine drives a generator to generate electricity. The exhaust (waste) heat escaped through the exhaust stack of the gas turbine is utilized by a Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HSRG) system to produce steam that spins a steam turbine. This steam turbine drives a generator to produce additional electricity. CCCP is assumed to produce 50% more energy than a single power plant.
