Course details
• Introduction to Neural Networks: Understanding the basics of artificial neural networks, including their structure, components, and functioning.
• Perceptron: Learning about the fundamental building block of neural networks, the perceptron, and its role in binary classification tasks.
• Activation Functions: Exploring various activation functions, such as sigmoid, tanh, and ReLU, and their influence on the network's output and learning process.
• Multilayer Perceptrons (MLPs): Delving into the architecture of MLPs, their ability to perform complex tasks, and the backpropagation algorithm used for training.
• Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs): Understanding the design and application of CNNs in image recognition, including convolutional and pooling layers.
• Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs): Examining RNNs' unique structure, their use in sequence-based tasks, and the challenges related to training long sequences.
• Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) Networks: Learning about LSTMs, a specialized type of RNN designed to address long-term dependency issues in sequence data.
• Evaluation Metrics: Measuring the performance of neural network models using appropriate evaluation metrics, such as accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score.
• Regularization Techniques: Discovering methods for preventing overfitting in neural networks, including L1, L2 regularization, dropout, and data augmentation.
