Day 1 of 60 days of Deep Learning with projects Series
Prerequisite for 60 days of Deep Learning with projects Series —
You should complete 60 days of Data Science and Machine Learning before jumping the ships. You must have a basic knowledge of the Data Science and ML and terms that I’ll be using in series — It covers everything from scratch and will give you a boot up to build a great foundation and projects ( also understand the complex topics).
Goal
Let’s set a clear objective.
The goal is to develop an intuition and understand (in the depth) the practical side of Deep Learning and build projects/applications.
I have created a GitHub repo for this series where we will be maintaining our code.
Tools
We will be using Google Colabs and Jupyter Notebooks ( based on our requirement).

Lets dive in — Day 2 : Basics of Deep Learning!
What is Deep Learning?
Deep learning is a branch of Machine learning which works with Artificial neural network — to imitate how human think, learn and pass the information. It consists of sophisticated neural networks which allows machines to observe, learn the complex data and conditions/situations way faster than human beings. It’s heavy on statistics and predictive modelling.

“Deep learning is a kind of learning where the representation you form have several levels of abstraction, rather than a direct input to output” ~ Peter Norvig, Director of Research at Google
Neural network is the heart of deep learning — inspired by the structure of human brain i.e how brain neurons exchange information/signals with each. It has an input layer ( with inputs weighted based on different criterias’) and output layer and in between many hidden layers which are also known as processing layers. These layers are connected by nodes and these connections constitute a network.

Neural networks in general allows machine programs to recognize the patterns. Some of the examples of Neural networks are the the multilayer perceptron, Boltzmann machine, and the Kohonen network etc. NN makes the heart of DL algorithms. Deep NN’s learn by discovering complex structures in the data they are input with. Along with that they create levels of abstractions wrt data representation.
Why Deep learning?
More data + Bigger Modes + Better Algorithms + More Computations = new and improved insights

Deep Learning — Machine Learning

Machine Learning performs well with medium dataset whereas deep learning needs big dataset and machines with GPU. The training time is long in case of deep learning and data interpretation is difficult. In case of ML, the training time is relatively short and (some)ML algorithms are easy to interpret.
Supervised and unsupervised deep learning

Deep learning employs supervised learning in the tasks like object detection and digit recognizer, image classification etc — to predict a label or a number. In the case of Autoencoders, the NN employs unsupervised learning.
Deep Learning Methods ( which we will cover in detail later )—
Adaptive Learning Rates — to increase performance and reduce training time.
Transfer Learning — Reduce computation time
Training from scratch — Useful for new applications with many output categories
Dropout — Solves the problem of overfitting and thus the performance of NN
Applications of Deep Learning
Deep learning is a widely used in natural language processing, Image recognition, Speech Recognition, Computer Vision, Medical Research, Aerospace industry etc. Some of these we will discuss in this series going forward.
