##About the Course Neural networks use learning algorithms that are inspired by our understanding of how the brain learns, but they are evaluated by how well they work for practical applications such as speech recognition, object recognition, image retrieval and the ability to recommend products that a user will like. As computers become more powerful, Neural Networks are gradually taking over from simpler Machine Learning methods. They are already at the heart of a new generation of speech recognition devices and they are beginning to outperform earlier systems for recognizing objects in images. The course will explain the new learning procedures that are responsible for these advances, including effective new proceduresr for learning multiple layers of non-linear features, and give you the skills and understanding required to apply these procedures in many other domains.
This YouTube video gives examples of the kind of material that will be in the course, but the course will present this material at a much gentler rate and with more examples.
##Recommended Background Programming proficiency in Matlab, Octave or Python. Enough knowledge of calculus to be able to differentiate simple functions. Enough knowledge of linear algebra to understand simple equations involving vectors and matrices. Enough knowledge of probability theory to understand what a probability density is.
##Course Format The class will consist of lecture videos, which are between 5 and 15 minutes in length. These contain 1-3 integrated quiz questions per video. There will also be standalone homework that is not part of video lectures, optional programming assignments, and a (not optional) final test.
##FAQ Will I get a certificate after completing this class? Yes. Students who successfully complete the class will receive a certificate signed by the instructor.
What resources will I need for this class? You will need access to a computer that you can use to experiment with learning algorithms written in Matlab, Octave or Python. If you use Matlab you will need your own licence.
What is the coolest thing I'll learn if I take this class? You will learn how a neural network can generate a plausible completion of almost any sentence.
