CERTIFICATION COURSE

No. of Hours: 54

Certificate Validity: 2 Yr(s)

Prerequisites

  • Knowledge of Python, familiarity with control flow (if/else, for loops) and pythonic constructs (functions, classes, iterables, generators)
  • Use of bash shell (or equivalent command prompt) and basic commands to copy and move files
  • Basic knowledge of linear algebra (what is a vector, what is a matrix, how to calculate dot product)

Course Outcome

  • To describe what Deep Learning is in a simple yet accurate way
  • To explain how deep learning can be used to build predictive models
  • To distinguish which practical applications can benefit from deep learning
  • To install and use Python and Keras to build deep learning models
  • To apply deep learning to solve supervised and unsupervised learning problems involving images, text, sound, time series and tabular data.
  • To build, train and use fully connected, convolutional and recurrent neural networks
  • To look at the internals of a deep learning model without intimidation and with the ability to tweak its parameters
  • To estimate training costs for large models
  • To re-use pre-trained models to shortcut training time and cost (transfer learning)

Target Audience

  • Software engineers who are curious about data science and about the Deep Learning buzz and want to get a better understanding of it.
  • Data scientists who are familiar with Machine Learning and want to develop a strong foundational knowledge of deep learning.
