Overview
Are you new to deep learning and want to learn how to use it in your work? Deep learning can achieve state-of-the-art accuracy in many humanlike tasks such as naming objects in a scene or recognizing optimal paths in an environment.
The main tasks are to assemble large data sets, create a neural network, to train, visualize, and evaluate different models, using specialized hardware - often requiring unique programming knowledge. These tasks are frequently even more challenging because of the complex theory behind them.
In this seminar, we’ll demonstrate new MATLAB® features that simplify these tasks and eliminate the low-level programming. In doing so, we’ll decipher practical knowledge of the domain of deep learning. We’ll build and train neural networks that recognize handwriting, classify food in a scene, and figure out the drivable area in a city environment.
Highlights
Along the way, you’ll see MATLAB features that make it easy to:
- Manage extremely large sets of images
- Visualize networks and gain insight into the black box nature of deep networks
- Perform classification and pixel-level semantic segmentation on images
- Import training data sets from networks such as GoogLeNet and ResNet
- Import and use pre-trained models from TensorFlow and Caffe
- Speed up network training with parallel computing on a cluster
- Automate manual effort required to label ground truth
- Automatically convert a model to CUDA to run on GPUs
