Deep Learning Courses

https://developer.nvidia.com/deep-learning-courses

Deep learning is a rapidly growing segment of artificial intelligence. It is increasingly used to deliver near-human level accuracy for image classification, voice recognition, natural language processing, sentiment analysis, recommendation engines, and more. Applications areas include facial recognition, scene detection, advanced medical and pharmaceutical research, and autonomous, self-driving vehicles.

Free Deep Learning Course

Join NVIDIA’s deep learning experts for a free online course. This introductory course is comprised of five instructor-led classes that include interactive lectures, hands-on exercises, and office hours with the instructors.
You’ll learn everything you need to design, train and integrate neural network-powered artificial intelligence into your applications with widely-used open source frameworks and NVIDIA software. During the hands-on exercises, you will use GPUs and deep learning software in the cloud.
This is an introductory course, so previous experience with deep learning and GPU programming is not required.
