Practical Deep Learning

A book for people with no experience with machine learning and who are looking for an intuition-based, hands-on introduction using Python.



Deep Learning for Complete Beginners: A Python-Based Introduction is for complete beginners in machine learning. It introduces fundamental concepts such as classes and labels, building a dataset, and what a model is and does before presenting classic machine learning models, neural networks, and modern convolutional neural networks. Experiments in Python - working with leading open-source toolkits and standard datasets - give the reader hands-on experience with each model and help them build intuition about how to transfer the examples in the book to their own projects.
