      Would of like some matrix math examples of the concepts
    • 5/5
      Gives a nice quick introduction to concepts related to Neural Networks. Uses story-like descriptions to talk about training techniques and reward functions. Perhaps it's too short, but it's only meant to be an introduction anyway.

    Students and academicians, especially those focusing on neural networks and deep learning

    Is this book for me?

    This book is for those who are interested in neural networks and deep learning. There are a lot of skills that a data scientist needs, such as coding, intellectual mindset, eagerness to make new discoveries, and much more.

    It’s important that you are interested in this because you are obsessed with this kind of work. Little programming experience is required. If you already wrote a few lines of code and recognize basic programming statements, then this book is for you.

    Introduction

    Despite how it's portrayed in books and movies, artificial intelligence is not a synthetic brain floating in a case of blue liquid somewhere. It is an algorithm -- a mathematical equation that tells a computer what functions to perform... In the world of AI, the Holy Grail is to discover the single algorithm that will allow machines to understand the world -- the digital equivalent of the Standard Model that lets physicists explain the operations of the universe. - Jeff Goodell

    The multiplication of complex mathematical matrices is an idea that may have your eyelids feeling heavy already. It's quite common to see no practical use for performing such an abstract function. Even with the assistance of a computer, what purpose could be combining these arbitrary data sets serve?

    It was discovered that we could define a computer program capable of a superficial, simulated version of learning. The key difference in nature between this new style of programming versus its predecessor is that conventional computer programs contained specific rules and operations to be performed upon execution of the program. Once the program was coded by its engineer(s), the code was locked into place until an update or software patch was released. The advent of computer code possessing the capacity to learn marked a new category of software in which a developer could write an initial function, though, over time, the function would correct, optimize, and rewrite itself. We call these types of software as neural networks, and their special ability is called machine learning.

    Have you noticed the increasing prevalence of software that tries to learn from you? More and more, we are interacting with machines and platforms that try to predict what we are looking for. From movie and television show recommendations on Netflix based on your taste to the keyboard on your smartphone trying to predict and recommend the next word you may want to type, it's becoming obvious that machine learning will definitely be part of our future.

    You have selected a wonderful time to get involved engaging and improving this amazing technology. Historically, this field has seen its growth in spurts. It is safe to say that, from here, neural networks should continue to experience steady growth. While that is an exciting news, this book will challenge you to accelerate the
