• What we'll do
The State of the Art in Deep Learning

Benchmarks in every machine learning task from image classification to machine translation and voice-to-text are bing shattered by Deep Learning. This talk is a quick crash-course on Deep Learning. We will cover the essential theory and some state-of-the-art model architectures to show how the building blocks of deep learning can be composed in a near infinite number of ways to solve an incredible variety of problems.

We will cover computer vision, natural language processing, and speech examples and go through some sample code in a jupyter notebook. Beginners welcome!
