A Collection of resources I have found useful on my journey, finding my way through the world of Deep Learning.

Courses

Stanford CS231n Convolutional Neural Networks for Visual Recognition

Learn about artificial neural networks and how they're being used for machine learning, as applied to speech and object recognition, image segmentation, modeling language and human motion, etc. by Geoffrey Hinton

Deep Learning is an important subset of Machine Learning and it is therefor important to get a wider knowledge and understanding of Machine Learning. The Coursera Machine Learning course by Andrew Ng is highly recommended.

The fast.ai team (Jeremy Howard & Rachel Thomas) promises to take you to the cool stuff asap.

What is the next likely breakthrough in Deep Learning

Looking at The major advancements in Deep Learning in 2016 gives us a peek into the future of deep learing. A big portion of the effort went into Generative Models, let us see if that is the case in 2017.

Do machines actually beat doctors?

Visualising a Neural Network as a tree with branches and using smart pruning techniques might be the answer to getting a peek view of what is going on inside the 'black box' of a Neural Network

MatplotLib

Deep Learning is far from being an exact science and a lot of what you do is based on getting a feel for the underlying mechanics, visualising the moving parts makes it easier to understand and Matplotlib is the go-to library for visualisation

NumPy

NumPy is a fast optimized package for scientific computing, and is also the underlying library a lot of Machine Learning frameworks are build on top of. Becoming a NumPy ninja is an important step to mastery.

TensorFlow

TensorFlow is an open source software library for numerical computation using data flow graphs. TensorFlow is designed and highly optimised to take advantage of GPU technology in a distributed manner not only on a single instance with many GPU's, but also across many devices and networks, making it an ideal framework for learning and production.
