CONTENT
​
The book covers a vast range of Deep Learning topics. Starting with Machine Learning and DL basics and using simple examples and easy-to-follow code, it gets us to an advanced level of DL applications. It covers many different fields of DL, from tabular data, image classification, segmentation, and generation to the use of Transformers in NLP. To get the most out of the sessions and the book we recommend having intermediate Python skills and a good understanding of general Machine Learning concepts.
​
The material that will be used during the study sessions is based on the excellent Python notebooks provided by François Chollet:
