We are now ready to start building our first deep learning model.
But where do we begin?
To see deep learning in action, let us start with something that deep learning systems are extremely good at: a convolutional neural network built for image classification. For this, we will build what’s commonly considered the “hello world” program of deep learning—that is, to write a program to classify images of handwritten digits. Think of it as a simple OCR system.
But don’t we need a lot of data to train the system?
Well, luckily for us, since handwritten digits classification ...
