Deep Learning: Study Group
Details
We are organizing a study group around the Deep Learning Specialization on Coursera:
https://www.coursera.org/specializations/deep-learning
In their words:
"If you want to break into AI, this Specialization will help you do so. Deep Learning is one of the most highly sought after skills in tech. We will help you become good at Deep Learning."
It was put together by a legend in the field Andrew Ng.
The plan is to first take the 4 week long course on Neural Networks (3 - 6 hours per week, starting 18th June) and see how that goes. This course can be audited (i.e. taken for free). Some experience with Python will probably help, however, if you are new to coding then this might be all the more reason to join a study group.
If there is enough interest then we might be able to obtain sponsored refreshments and a dedicated space.
Please join us for the pre-study meet and greet this Saturday (June 16) at 2pm, where we can share our motivations and goals, and find out who has the skill sets that could help us on our journey to becoming a Deep Learning master.
