Introduction to Neural Networks Workshop- Bootcamp Prep
Details
In order to attend, get your free ticket at Eventbrite: http://bit.ly/2F7KIGF
This is a preliminary free workshop for the upcoming bootcamp -> Master Neural Networks (more info about bootcamp here http://bit.ly/2FcaTMi). Isn't it time you built a neural network from scratch and truly understood all the fundamental operations with utmost intuition of linear algebra, calculus and how it all ties together in your network?
This workshop is free, where you will learn how to create a feedforward algorithm from scratch with only the requirements of:
Bringing your laptop
You dont need python IDE installed
You need beginner level python knowledge
You will learn:
Basic linear algebra
Creating a python architecture of a neural net
Understanding of weights and layers
Basic Understanding of sigmoid function
A practical coded example of feedforward (You will be able to code this yourself after 1.5 hours)
Description of the Bootcamp:
We here at Forskningsparken are happy introduce the latest in learning tech to professionals interested in taking their career to the state of the art in understanding, creating, and formulating your optimized Neural Network from scratch. This is why we present you with our highly engaging and intensive bootcamp. The workshop at this meetup is free
What's this Bootcamp about?
Project based learning. We will create a neural network and learn how to predict something engaging for the purpose of learning - the next hour Bitcoin Price based on the previous hour. Dive into python, numpy, matplotlib and get highly interactive theory and lab practicals at our meetup. Don't just listen to a power point but solve multipe choice questions, fill in the blanks, and coding questions with automatic feedback depending on your precise mistake while we present you with ENGAGING content. You, coming with a basic knowledge of python, will come out with a thorough understanding of Linear Algebra, Calculus, object oriented programming, and finally a full blown optimized neural network with real practical examples and how to program it.
As a professional, why Should I care about Learning Neural Networks?
Today, in 2018, job automation through technology has replaced nine per cent of all US jobs this year, says Forrester Research.
By 2030, 800 million jobs worldwide or 30% of the US market are threatened by automation, but technology could still save us, claims the research report compiled by the McKinsey Global Institute.
New jobs will be created; existing roles will be evolved; but only the passionate learners, upskilling themselves will have the opportunity to thrive in the new job market! So let's take advantage of these incredible learning opportunities.
Time: Feb 9 (9AM - 5PM)
Location: Forskningsparken (ground floor, very close to Blindern T-Bane)
What do I need before hand in order to master Neural Networks in 16 hours?
- Requirement to have knowledge/experience of the fundamentals- python and brush up on the very basics of calculus.
- Expert level knowledge of Python is not necessary to be able to understand Neural Networks
Is this Bootcamp for me?
Yes if:
- You want to learn the fundamentals of neural networks in a fast-paced environment
- You are a professional interested in following a career in Machine Learing or want to apply it in your work as it's related to every industryh.
- You are a manager that wants to get a better grip on your technical employees language
- You are a designer that does not want to be dependent on your developer
No if:
- You are not interested in attaining your dream job in the machine learning
- You are not interested in learning the most amazing technology from the 21st century which Ada lovelace once described as the calculus of our nervous system.
