Title: Foundations of Deep Learning: The Core Neural Network Families — James Carman
Details:
Deep learning isn’t magic—it’s pattern recognition at scale. In this session, James Carman will peel back the curtain on the three “classic” families of neural networks that powered the AI revolution: fully connected networks, convolutional networks, and recurrent networks. You’ll learn what makes each of them unique, where they shine in real‑world applications, and why they paved the way for today’s breakthroughs. No math required—just clear concepts, visuals, and examples that make these models click.
