COURSE DESCRIPTION

Deep learning can be considered as a subset of machine learning which improves on its own by examining computer algorithms. While machine learning uses simpler concepts, deep learning works with deep neural networks, which are designed to imitate how humans think and learn. The goal of this course is to give learners a basic understanding of modern neural networks and their applications in computer vision and natural language understanding.
