Introduction | Deep Learning Tutorial 1 (Tensorflow Tutorial, Keras & Python)

With this video I am beginning a deep

learning tutorial series in Python. Now

this is designed for absolute beginners

so you do not need to have any prior

background in deep learning. What you

need to know is a little bit of Python,

Pandas, and machine learning. So for

Python, I'm going to link my Python

playlist. You need to follow first 16

video, 1 6. And then for Pandas, you can

follow maybe first 9 videos just to get

yourself clear on the data cleaning

procedure in Pandas. And for machine

learning I am, again, going to link my

machine learning tutorial playlist. You

can follow probably few of those

tutorials. I'm talking about SVM, decision

tree, linear regression, all those

tutorials in that list. There are some

projects as well, but it's ok if you

don't work on projects. And once you do

that, you can move on to this particular

series which is deep learning. So I'm

going to link a playlist here. I will be

producing videos in next few weeks and

as I produce videos, I will keep on

adding those videos. So all you need is a

willingness to learn, a decent computer,

you don't need any hi-fi computer by the way,

and just a basic knowledge in Python

Pandas and machine learning. Now this

series will be, of course, it will be in

Python. I will be using Keras and

Tensorflow.

I might use Pytorch as well, but I'm not

sure, but you will see in the upcoming

videos. Also, I will try my best to keep

things simple because deep learning

especially, is little heavy on

mathematics and statistics, and people

often have problem following those

concepts. And my whole goal for this

entire list is anyone can, any new

beginner, even if you don't have any

mathematics or statistics background, you

can follow this playlist and you can

hopefully write some deep learning

programs. If I need to clear any math

concepts, what I will do is as we are

going through the tutorial playlist,

we will cover those concepts

gradually. Throughout the playlist I will be

using a simple data set so that you get

an understanding of this concept

very easily. I will also provide

exercises. I'm not promising anything but

based on my time availability I will

provide exercises so that you can

practice those questions and post your

answers. Also, I am glad to announce that

NVIDIA has decided to give me NVIDIA

TITAN RTX GPU. It is the top of the line,

it is $2,500 GPU that NVIDIA company is

giving it to me for free, so I really

want to thank NVIDIA for supporting my

YouTube Work. You will have to use GPU if

you are performing any heavy deep

learning jobs, so I am planning to post

NVIDIA like, RTX GPU unboxing video as

well as I am going to build my own PC

using NVIDIA GPU. Now as I mentioned

before, you probably don't need to do all

of that. You can run it with your laptop

as well, but if you ever plan to get

involved in running deep learning jobs

on your computer, then NVIDIA is the

perfect GPU. I used to work for NVIDIA

by the way, ten years back. I was in

device driver programming team, so I used

to write device drivers for these GPUs,

and now I will be using the CPU for

doing deep learning jobs. So, again, thanks

NVIDIA for supporting my work. In the

next video, we'll look into why deep

learning is taking off now.
