<p>Greetings Teachers of Machines, </p>
<div class="moz-forward-container">
<div>last week, the TRIUMF Data Science Group met to discuss
possible avenues to explore the coming weeks. <br>
</div>
<div>We decided to shine light on<b> Deep Learning using PyTorch</b>
by following an <b>edX online course</b> [1]. The course is
free (certification possible [2]), self-paced (6 weeks with
~3h/week) and only requires basic understanding of Machine
Learning (ML) and python. At the end of the course, you will
have a deeper understanding on crucial aspects of ML, including:</div>
<ul>
<li>
<div>Softmax</div>
</li>
<li>
<div>(Deep) Neural Networks (NN)</div>
</li>
<li>
<div>Convolutional NN</div>
</li>
<li>
<div>Autoencoders</div>
</li>
</ul>
<div>Every other week, we will gather virtually to discuss
questions you might have. Our next meeting is <b>Wednesday, May
26th, 15:30pm </b>- a separate announcement mail will be
sent.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Don't miss out on this great opportunity to light your
pyTorch with us! <span style="color: rgb(77, 81, 86);

<div>[2] There also is an option to get your participation
certified. We are exploring ways to fund this. <b>Please get in
touch if you would like to sign up for a certification.</b></div>
