'IT Support for Research' Workshop: Deep Learning with Python (Evening class)

Workshop/ Training/ Webinar

20220228-event-Deep-Learning-with-Python_afternoon - Copy

Summary

Deep learning is a subfield of machine learning based on the application of artificial neural networks which are comprised of artificial neurons that stimulate biological neurons. The use of multiple layers of neurons allows a model to learn much more complicated features compared with classical machine learning algorithms, and therefore it is widely used in difficult tasks such as computer vision and speech recognition.

The workshop, consists of five online sessions, will focus on working with an open source AI library named Tensorflow, developed by Google Brain, to build neural networks that handle image recognition, speech synthesis and advanced time series prediction. The workshop will also cover various optimization algorithms and regularization techniques for fine tuning a neural network that utilizes model performance.

Students have basic programming knowledge in Python are welcome to join.
