Deep learning refers to AI/ML techniques that utilize multilayer (deep) artificial neural networks. This branch of data science has seen exponential improvements in performance as our ability to collect, store, and process digital data has dramatically increased. Prediction, classification, regression, and identification of semi/unstructured data are areas where deep learning techniques exhibit a significant comparative advantage.
Course aims:
- To obtain an overview of the literature in deep learning methods and applications.
- To obtain an understanding of a variety of deep learning techniques for classification, regression, and prediction.
- To obtain the ability to implement and experiment with a wide range of deep learning algorithms in Python with examples: e.g., convolutional networks (CNN), auto-encoders, generative adversarial networks (GAN), transformers/attention (BERT)
- To understand and implement deep learning-based methods for classification of semi/unstructured data such as images or language.
