Understanding how to create a deep learning neural network is an essential component of any data scientist's knowledge base. This course covers some of the challenges that arise when training neural networks. It focuses on the problem of overfitting and its potential remedy: regularization. Learners should have a basic understanding of linear algebra and calculus.
- Discover what overfitting means and how to recognize it in deep learning models
- Understand how to sample your data to reduce the likelihood of overfitting
- Learn about regularization and its use as a remedy for overfitting
Laura Graesser is assisting in NVIDIA's autonomous driving project.
