Title: Introduction to Deep Learning with R
Date: Thursday, May 4th, 18:00 – 20:00 CEST (Rome, Berlin, Paris timezone)
Speaker: Eran Raviv is an expert researcher at APG Asset Management, working for the Digitalization & Innovation department. His academic papers are published in top-tier journals. In his present role, Dr. Raviv helps the organization develop its Data Science capabilities and he is engaged in both strategic planning and leading bottom-up initiatives.
Description: The purpose of this workshop is to offer an introductory understanding of deep learning, regardless of your prior experience. It is important to note that this workshop is tailored to those who are absolute beginners in the field. We therefore begin with few necessary fundamental concepts, after which we cover the basics of deep learning, including topics such as what is actually being learned in deep learning, what makes it “deep,” and why it is such a popular field. We will also cover how you can estimate deep learning models in R using the neuralnet package. You should attend this workshop if you heard about deep learning and would like to know more about it.
