Advanced Topics in Deep Learning (ATDL)
Course content
This course will give you detailed insight into advanced deep learning methods and techniques, covering algorithms, theory and tools in this exciting and fast advancing field.
This is an advanced topics course, and the exact list of topics will therefore change from year to year, depending on current trends in the literature.
The course is on advanced topics, and it therefore has the introductory machine learning and deep learning courses as prerequisites.
