[This week Jamie will be presenting on Lecture 12: Understanding and Visualizing from the 2017 series. https://youtu.be/6wcs6szJWMY

"In Lecture 12 we discuss methods for visualizing and understanding the internal mechanisms of convolutional networks. We also discuss the use of convolutional networks for generating new images, including DeepDream and artistic style transfer."

This corresponds to Lecture 14 in the 2021 series: http://cs231n.stanford.edu/slides/2021/lecture_14.pdf ]

We are going through Stanford's lecture series Convolutional Neural Networks for Visual Recognition (CS231n) (http://cs231n.stanford.edu/)
This series is for those who want to take a deep dive into deep learning for computer vision tasks and/or to brush up on the fundamentals:

"Computer Vision has become ubiquitous in our society, with applications in search, image understanding, apps, mapping, medicine, drones, and self-driving cars. Core to many of these applications are visual recognition tasks such as image classification, localization and detection. Recent developments in neural network (aka “deep learning”) approaches have greatly advanced the performance of these state-of-the-art visual recognition systems. This lecture collection is a deep dive into details of the deep learning architectures with a focus on learning end-to-end models for these tasks, particularly image classification. From this lecture collection, students will learn to implement, train and debug their own neural networks and gain a detailed understanding of cutting-edge research in computer vision."

The idea will be to watch each lecture ahead of meeting. A lead will guide us through the content of the lecture, summarizing important or interesting concepts. We'll do this remotely using video conferencing. A link will be posted a few minutes before each meeting.
