Learning Deep Learning: Building AI Applications

Overview

This course covers advanced deep learning topics, including Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs), and modern language models. You will learn techniques for image classification, time series prediction, and natural language processing. The course includes building and optimizing CNNs for image recognition, using architectures such as AlexNet, VGGNet, GoogLeNet, and ResNet, and working with pre-trained models. You will also work with RNNs and LSTMs for tasks like forecasting and text autocompletion. The curriculum covers neural language models, word embeddings (such as Word2vec and wordpieces), encoder-decoder architectures, attention mechanisms, and Transformers for machine translation. Hands-on projects using TensorFlow and PyTorch will help you develop practical skills for solving real-world problems in computer vision and language processing.
