Deep Learning and Applications

The book you’re holding is another step on the way to making deep learning available to as many people as possible. Deep learning algorithm had always needed a companion course to simultaneously cover fundamentals of deep learning Deep learning algorithm usage patterns and deep-learning best practices. This book is my best effort to produce such a course. We wrote it with a focus on making the concepts behind deep learning and their implementation as approachable as possible. Doing so didn’t require me to dumb down anything— we strongly believe that there are no difficult ideas in deep learning. We hope you’ll find this book valuable and that it will enable you to begin building intelligent applications and solve the problems that matter to you.
