In this workshop, you’ll learn how deep learning works through hands-on exercises in computer vision and natural language processing. You’ll train deep learning models from scratch, learning tools and tricks to achieve highly accurate results. You’ll also learn to leverage freely available, state-of-the-art pre-trained models to save time and get your deep learning application up and running quickly.
Prerequisites: an understanding of fundamental programing concepts in Python 3, such as functions, loops, dictionaries, and arrays; familiarity with Pandas data structures.

This workshop teaches you techniques for training deep neural networks on multi-GPU technology to shorten the training time required for data-intensive applications. Working with deep learning tools, frameworks, and workflows to perform neural network training, you’ll learn concepts for implementing Horovod multi-GPUs to reduce the complexity of writing efficient distributed software and to maintain accuracy when training a model across many GPUs.
Prerequisites: Experience with gradient descent model training
