Over the next few decades, artificial intelligence is poised to dramatically change almost every aspect of our lives, in large part due to todays breakthroughs in deep learning. The authors clear visual style provides a comprehensive look at whats currently possible with artificial neural networks as well as a glimpse of the magic thats to come. Tim Urban, writer and illustrator of Wait But Why
This book is an approachable, practical, and broad introduction to deep learning, and the most beautifully illustrated machine learning book on the market. Dr. Michael Osborne, Dyson Associate Professor in Machine Learning, University of Oxford
This book should be the first stop for deep learning beginners, as it contains lots of concrete, easy-to-follow examples with corresponding tutorial videos and code notebooks. Strongly recommended. Dr. Chong Li, cofounder, Nakamoto & Turing Labs; adjunct professor, Columbia University
Its hard to imagine developing new products today without thinking about enriching them with capabilities using machine learning. Deep learning in particular has many practical applications, and this books intelligible clear and visual approach is helpful to anyone who would like to understand what deep learning is and how it could impact your business and life for years to come. Helen Altshuler, engineering leader, Google
This book leverages beautiful illustrations and amusing analogies to make the theory behind deep learning uniquely accessible. Its straightforward example code and best-practice tips empower readers to immediately apply the transformative technique to their particular niche of interest. Dr. Rasmus Rothe, founder, Merantix
This is an invaluable resource for anyone looking to understand what deep learning is and why it powers almost every automated application today, from chatbots and voice recognition tools to self-driving cars. The illustrations and biological explanations help bring to life a complex topic and make it easier to grasp fundamental concepts. Joshua March, CEO and cofounder, Conversocial; author of Message Me
Deep learning is regularly redefining the state of the art across machine vision, natural language, and sequential decision-making tasks. If you too would like to pass data through deep neural networks in order to build high-performance models, then this bookwith its innovative, highly visual approachis the ideal place to begin. Dr. Alex Flint, roboticist and entrepreneur
