This a lecture used in the Syllabus for Machine Learning 10-601B in Spring 2016
Slides
Readings
This area is moving very fast and the textbooks are not up-to-date. Some recommended readings:
- Neural Networks and Deep Learning An online book by Michael Nielsen, pitched at an appropriate level for 10-601, which has a bunch of exercises and on-line sample programs in Python.
For more detail, look at the MIT Press book (in preparation) from Bengio - it's very complete but also fairly technical.
Things to remember
- The underlying reasons deep networks are hard to train
- Exploding/vanishing gradients
- Saturation
- The importance of key recent advances in neural networks:
- Matrix operations and GPU training
- ReLU, cross-entropy, softmax
