1 - 2 of 2 results for: CS 231N: Deep Learning for Computer Vision

Computer Vision has become ubiquitous in our society, with applications in search, image understanding, apps, mapping, medicine, drones, and self-driving cars. Core to many of these applications are visual recognition tasks such as image classification and object detection. Recent developments in neural network approaches have greatly advanced the performance of these state-of-the-art visual recognition systems. This course is a deep dive into details of neural-network based deep learning methods for computer vision. During this course, students will learn to implement, train and debug their own neural networks and gain a detailed understanding of cutting-edge research in computer vision. We will cover learning algorithms, neural network architectures, and practical engineering tricks for training and fine-tuning networks for visual recognition tasks.Prerequisites: Proficiency in Python - All class assignments will be in Python (and use numpy) (we provide a tutorial here for those who aren't as familiar with Python). If you have a lot of programming experience but in a different language (e.g. C/C++/Matlab/Javascript) you will probably be fine.College Calculus, Linear Algebra (e.g. MATH 19, MATH 51) -You should be comfortable taking derivatives and understanding matrix vector operations and notation. Basic Probability and Statistics (e.g. CS 109 or other stats course) -You should know basics of probabilities, gaussian distributions, mean, standard deviation, etc.
