Full-day Workshop
2025 EVENTS
In this workshop, you’ll learn how deep learning works through hands-on exercises in computer vision and natural language processing. You’ll train deep learning models from scratch, learning tools and tricks to achieve highly accurate results. You’ll also learn to leverage freely available, state-of-the-art pre-trained models to save time and get your deep learning application up and running quickly.
By participating in this workshop, you’ll:
Learn the fundamental techniques and tools required to train a deep learning model
Gain experience with common deep learning data types and model architectures
Enhance datasets through data augmentation to improve model accuracy
Leverage transfer learning between models to achieve efficient results with less data and computation
Build confidence to take on your own project with a modern deep learning framework
Technologies: Tensorflow 2 with Keras, Pandas
Assessment Type: Skills-based coding assessments evaluate students’ ability to train a deep learning model to high accuracy.
Certificate: Upon successful completion of the assessment, participants will receive an NVIDIA DLI certificate to recognize their subject matter competency and support professional career growth.
Hardware Requirements: Desktop or laptop computer capable of running the latest version of Chrome or Firefox. Each participant will be provided with dedicated access to a fully configured, GPU-accelerated server in the cloud.
