Pytorch Deep Learning by Example (2nd Edition): Grasp deep Learning from scratch like AlphaGo Zero within 40 days

by Benjamin Young

Summary

Do you have difficulties to get started on pytorch even with online tutorials?
Do you have trouble to really understand pytorch example code?
Do you want to understand many state-of-art deep learning technologies with bare-minimum math?
Do you have obstacles to implement a real life deep learning projects in pytorch?

This book will easy these pains and help you learn and grasp latest pytorch deep learning technology from ground zero with many interesting real world examples. It could also be used as a quick guide on how to use and understand deep learning in the real life.

Description

Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning especially Deep Learning has made tremendous progress in recent years. It starts to spread to all industries.

Unless you are a refresh graduated student with AI/deep learning major, many of us do not have a formal machine learning/deep learning training before, so it is time to keep updated with latest technology.

Pytoch is a quite powerful, flexible and yet popular deep learning framework, but the learning curve could be steep if you do not have much deep learning background. This book will easy the pain and help you learn and grasp latest pytorch deep learning technology from ground zero with many interesting real world examples. It covers many state-of-art deep learning technologies, e.g. : Convoluational neural network (CNN), Recurrent neural network (RNN), Seq2Seq model, word emedding, Connectionist temporal calssification (CTC ) , Auto-encoder, Dynamic Memrory Network (DMN), Deep-Q-learning(DQN/DDQN), Monte Carlo Tree search (MCTS), Alphago/Alphazero etc. This book could also be used as a quick guide on how to use and understand deep learning in the real life.

Readers should have basic knowledge of python, scripting etc. Any constructive feedback is welcome.

Free lifetime upgrade for later editions ( as an electronic copy ). Previous readers who bought the 1st Edition, please contact author for free update ( electronic copy ).
