CodeBreakfast: Deep Learning Edition

Deep Learning is all the hype. It has already conquered areas such as image recognition, NLP, voice recognition, and is a must-know tool for every Data Practitioner. In this Code Breakfast for aspiring Deep Learners, Rodrigo Agundez and Henk Griffioen will give an overview of Deep Learning, its applications and will show you what you need to know to get started with Deep Learning in Python

Note: this code breakfast is longer and will last until 13:00. We should call it Code Lunch instead, but let's not break the streak just yet.

This Code Breakfast is for Data Enthusiasts who:

• know the fundamentals of Machine Learning;
• want some hands-on experience with Deep Learning;
• and have a working PyData stack.

What we will do:

• cover the basics of Deep Learning;
• go over the available Deep Learning tools in Python;
• explain Recurrent Neural Nets with a toy example;
• and apply Deep Learning on a natural language problem.

• What to bring
Bring your laptop, with a working stack (conda might be a good idea :)

• Important to know
