Welcome to our Deep Learning tutorial! This guide will take you through the basics of deep learning, covering everything from neural networks to practical applications.
What is Deep Learning?
Deep learning is a subset of machine learning that structures algorithms in layers to create an "artificial neural network" that can learn and make intelligent decisions on its own.
Key Concepts
Here are some key concepts you should be familiar with:
- Neural Networks: The fundamental building blocks of deep learning, inspired by the human brain.
- Activation Functions: Functions that determine whether a neuron should be activated or not.
- Backpropagation: A method used to train neural networks by adjusting the weights and biases.
- Overfitting/Underfitting: Issues that can occur when a model is too complex or too simple.
Getting Started
To get started with deep learning, you'll need a few things:
- A computer with a decent graphics card (for training neural networks)
- A deep learning framework (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch)
- Basic programming skills (Python is commonly used)

Practice
To solidify your understanding, try implementing a simple neural network to classify images or perform other tasks.
Good luck, and happy learning!
