DESCRIPTION:This course will be delivered as an ONLINE EVENT for remote par
 ticipation due to the COVID-19 measures enforced by most European governme
 nts.\n\nDescription\n\nThis course gives a practical introduction to deep 
 learning\, convolutional and recurrent neural networks\, GPU computing\, a
 nd tools to train and apply deep neural networks for natural language proc
 essing\, images\, and other applications.\n\nThe course consists of lectur
 es and hands-on exercises. TensorFlow 2\, Keras\, and PyTorch  will be us
 ed in the exercise sessions. CSC's Notebooks environment will be used on t
 he first day of the course\, and the GPU-accelerated Puhti supercomputer o
 n the second day.\n\nLearning outcome\n\nAfter the course the participants
  should have the skills and knowledge needed to begin applying deep learni
 ng for different tasks and utilizing the GPU resources available at CSC fo
 r training and deploying their own neural networks.\n\nPrerequisites\n\nTh
 e participants are assumed to have working knowledge of Python and suitabl
 e background in data analysis\, machine learning\, or a related field. Pre
 vious experience in deep learning is not required\, but the fundamentals o
 f machine learning are not covered on this course.  Basic knowledge of a 
 Linux/Unix environment will be assumed.\n\nAgenda\n\nDay 1\, Monday 30.8\n
