Description: Recently, deep neural network models have revolutionized machine learning research and achieved the state-of-the-art performance in almost every related research, including computer vision, natural language processing, and computational biology. The goal of this seminar is to teach the basic principles of deep learning along with some basic implementations in pytorch framework. We will explore the most important neural architectures including convolutional neural networks, recurrent neural networks, and autoencoders as well as language-model based representation learning methods.
Topics:
• Deep Neural Networks and back propagation
• Convolutional Networks (CNN)
• Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN)
• Autoencoders
• Representation Learning
• Introduction to pytorch
