Talk Details:
Deep learning is currently a hot topic when it comes to Artificial Intelligence. Often this topic seems out of reach to developers – I disagree! This session will introduce the basic concepts needed to understand deep learning and its use with a specific emphasis on computer vision. Attendees will learn what is actually happening when training a model and how the output can be used in a production setting with a simple image classification problem.
