Unsupervised Deep Learning in Python

🚀 Course Title: Unsupervised Deep Learning in Python

🤖 Unlock the Secrets Behind AI Giants

Have you ever been intrigued by the capabilities of cutting-edge AI technologies like OpenAI's ChatGPT, GPT-4, DALL-E, Midjourney, and Stable Diffusion? In this comprehensive course, we'll dive into the foundations of these remarkable applications through the lens of Unsupervised Deep Learning.

🎓 Course Overview

This course is a natural progression in my series on deep learning, data science, and machine learning. With a solid foundation laid out in previous courses, including a detailed exploration of unsupervised learning with focus on clustering and density estimation, we're ready to explore the powerful world of Unsupervised Deep Learning. 🧠✨

📚 What You'll Learn:

• The Basics: We'll start with an introduction to Principal Components Analysis (PCA) and a deep dive into t-SNE (t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding), a crucial technique for dimensionality reduction.

• Autoencoders: Discover how these neural networks work, how they can be stacked for better performance, and their similarities to PCA as a non-linear approach for data compression.

• Deep Dive into RBMs: Explore the fascinating world of Restricted Boltzmann Machines (RBMs), their use in pretraining deep neural networks, and the training techniques like Gibbs sampling and Contrastive Divergence (CD-k).

• Hands-On Learning: Visualize the features learned by autoencoders and RBMs through PCA and t-SNE, and witness how unsupervised learning can reveal patterns in data.

👨‍💻 Course Requirements:

• A good grasp of calculus, linear algebra, and Python coding essentials (if/else, loops, lists, dicts, sets).

• Proficiency in Numpy, Theano, and Tensorflow is highly recommended as these tools are indispensable in your data analytics journey.

🎯 Who Is This For?

This course is tailored for those who:

• Have a genuine interest in deep learning and wish to delve beyond the basics of backpropagation.

• Are eager to understand how machine learning models are constructed from the ground up.
