Week 2 summary
A summary article of week 2 of deep learning for bioscientists: convolutional neural networks
Congratulations on completing week two of the course!
We covered a lot of important concepts this week, and we hope you have a better understanding of how convolutional neural networks, the heart of deep learning, are constructed.
In this week we have covered:
- network components, including:
- convolutional layers
- max pooling layers
- activation functions
- tensors and dimensionality
- constructing convolutional neural networks (CNNs)
- CNNs in Python PyTorch.
Now we know how to build networks, we need to know how to train them, as we will see next week.
