Braneshop - 6 Week Technical Deep Learning Workshop - February

A six-week hands-on machine learning workshop for those wanting to break into the AI industry.

About

Over 6 weeks, with 3 contact hours per week, you will get to grips with deep learning through Python, TensorFlow and Google Colaboratory. This is a hands-on technical workshop, with a substantial programming component.

What can you expect to receive and achieve?

• An intuitive understanding of deep learning and the essential concepts,
• Hands-on work in solving problems,
• Experience building models for typical domains of deep learning: understanding images, videos, and text,
• Individual and group support,
• Completed a selection of projects in TensorFlow,
• A supportive and growing community during and after the workshop.

Every week we will ...

• Have group discussions and learn together in a collaborative way,
• Consolidate your knowledge through exercises,
• Build on work from previous weeks through homework,
• Provide additional support (other than teaching hours) through office hours.

Who's it for?

• Data scientists wishing to move into AI and deep learning,
• Programmers looking to build, work with, or otherwise work with AI or deep learning projects,
• and broadly, technical people looking to break into the AI industry, develop a new business or product, join an existing AI team, or generally contribute to the AI ecosystem.

At the end of the workshop series participants will have a showreel of completed projects to demonstrate their ability.
