An Introduction to Deep Learning with Neural Networks
Join us and the Acadia Institute for Data Analytics on January 29th for a morning workshop and hands-on introduction to developing predictive models using deep learning artificial neural networks. Dr. Danny Silver and Dr. Andy McIntyre will share a high-level overview of the key elements of neural networks and deep learning, and recent advances that allow deep networks to solve challenging problems. Participants will get a hands-on experience and build their own deep models using prepared software (Keras and Tensorflow). Programming or coding experience is not a requirement for participants, as all code needed will be provided, however some programming experience will help! For this workshop, please bring a laptop with the latest version of the Chrome browser, and a Google account for using Google Drive. If you need one provided, please let us know in advance! Anyone who is interested in this session must register by January 24th and complete a short study prior to the workshop (which we will send you). About the Facilitators Dr. Danny Silver Director, Acadia Institute for Data Analytics Professor, Jodrey School of Computer Science at Acadia University Danny is a professor in, and a former Director of, the Jodrey School of Computer Science at […]
