Summary
Deep learning is often viewed as the exclusive domain of
math PhDs and big tech companies. But as this hands-on guide
demonstrates, programmers comfortable with Python can achieve
impressive results in deep learning with little math
background, small amounts of data, and minimal code. How?
With fastai, the first library to provide a consistent
interface to the most frequently used deep learning
applications. Authors Jeremy Howard and Sylvain Gugger, the
creators of fastai, show you how to train a model on a wide
range of tasks using fastai and PyTorch. You’ll also
dive progressively further into deep learning theory to gain
a complete understanding of the algorithms behind the scenes.
* Train models in computer vision, natural language
processing, tabular data, and collaborative filtering * Learn
the latest deep learning techniques that matter most in
practice * Improve accuracy, speed, and reliability by
understanding how deep learning models work * Discover how to
turn your models into web applications * Implement deep
learning algorithms from scratch * Consider the ethical
implications of your work * Gain insight from the foreword by
PyTorch cofounder, Soumith Chintala **
