Where to Learn Deep Learning – Courses, Tutorials, Software Deep Learning is a very hot Machine Learning techniques which has been achieving remarkable results recently. We give a list of free resources for learning and using Deep Learning. By Gregory Piatetsky, @kdnuggets, May 26, 2014. Deep Learning is a very hot area of Machine Learning Research, with many remarkable recent successes, such as 97.5% accuracy on face recognition, nearly perfect German traffic sign recognition, or even Dogs vs Cats image recognition with 98.9% accuracy. The term "deep learning" refers to the method of training multi-layered neural networks, and became popular after papers by Geoffrey Hinton and his co-workers which showed a fast way to train such networks. Yann LeCun, a student of Geoff Hinton, also developed a very effective algorithm for deep learning, called ConvNet, which was successfully used in late 80-s and early 90-s for automatic reading of amounts on bank checks. Here are some useful and free (!)
