Study Notes
Deep Learning Course Overview
- The course is based on Stanford's CS231n: Convolutional Neural Networks for Visual Recognition
- The course covers foundation concepts, shallow artificial neural networks, training parameters, deep computer vision, convolutional neural networks, deep sequence modeling, object detection, deep generative models, deep reinforcement, recurrent neural networks, VAE, pre-trained models, LSTM, GAN, transfer learning, and transformers
Foundations of Deep Learning
- Four steps to train a model:
- Step 1: Start with a random W and b
- Step 2: Calculate the score function (hypotheses function)
- Step 3: Calculate the loss function (error)
- Step 4: Optimization step (find the set of parameters W that minimize the loss function)
Logistic Regression
- Score function: takes input feature vectors, applies some function f, and returns predicted class labels
- Loss function: measures the difference between predicted and actual labels
- Multiclass SVM loss: L_i = ∑ max(0, s_j - s_yi + 1) for j ≠yi
- Multiclass SVM loss example: calculate the loss for three training examples and three classes
Linear Classifier
- Score function: f(x, W) = Wx + b
- Goal: set parameters W and b to match the ground truth labels across the whole training set
- Correct class should have a score higher than the scores of incorrect classes
Loss Function
- Measures how good the current classifier is
- Smaller loss indicates a better classifier
- Larger loss indicates more work needed to increase classification accuracy
- Loss function also known as error function
