Course Outline

Deep Learning vs Machine Learning vs Other Methods

  • When deep learning is appropriate
  • Limitations of deep learning
  • Comparing the accuracy and cost of different methods

Methods Overview

  • Nets and Layers
  • Forward and Backward: the core computations in layered compositional models.
  • Loss: the task to be learned is defined by the loss function.
  • Solver: coordinates model optimisation.
  • Layer Catalogue: the layer is the fundamental unit of modelling and computation.
  • Convolution
