You can master Computer Vision, Deep Learning, and OpenCV - PyImageSearch
A few weeks ago I introduced bat-country, my implementation of a lightweight, extendible, easy to use Python package for deep dreaming and inceptionism. The reception of the library was very good, so I decided that it would be interesting to…

One of the main benefits of the bat-country Python package for deep dreaming and visualization is its ease of use, extensibility, and customization. And let me tell you, that customization really came in handy last Friday when the Google Research…

We can’t stop here, this is bat country. Just a few days ago, the Google Research blog published a post demonstrating a unique, interesting, and perhaps even disturbing method to visualize what’s going inside the layers of a Convolutional Neural…

Last week I wrote a post detailing my experience with CUDAMat, Deep Belief Networks, and Python using my MacBook Pro. The post is fairly long and full of screenshots to document my experience. But the gist of it is this:…

Grab the tissues. This is a tail of my MacBook Pro, a GPU, and the CUDAMat library — and it doesn’t have a happy ending. Two weeks ago I posted a Geting Started with Deep Learning and Python guide. The…

Update – January 27, 2015: Based on the feedback from commenters, I have updated the source code in the download to include the original MNIST dataset! No external downloads required! Update – March 2015, 2015: The nolearn package has now…

In my last post, I mentioned that tiny, one pixel shifts in images can kill the performance your Restricted Boltzmann Machine + Classifier pipeline when utilizing raw pixels as feature vectors. Today I am going to continue that discussion. And…

Can you tell the difference between the two images above? Probably not. The one on the right has been shifted one pixel down. And while it still looks like the same image to us, to a Restricted Boltzmann Machine, this…

Disclaimer: This post is a bit cynical in tone. In all honesty, I support deep learning research, I support the findings, and I believe that by researching deep learning we can only further improve our classification approaches and develop better…
