Aim & Summary

The course covers fundamental concepts such as perceptrons, activation functions, and backpropagation, as well as advanced topics including convolutional neural networks (CNNs), recurrent neural networks (RNNs), and generative adversarial networks (GANs). Participants will also learn about popular DL frameworks like TensorFlow and PyTorch and gain hands-on experience in implementing neural network models. Through hands-on projects and practical exercises, participants will develop the skills to tackle real-world problems using DL and NN techniques. By the end of the course, participants will be equipped with the knowledge and tools to apply deep learning to a wide range of applications, from computer vision and natural language processing to reinforcement learning and generative modeling.
