Course on Deep learning for computer vision
This course covers basic and advanced concepts of deep learning applied to computer vision. We will first introducesupervised learning methods for deep neural architectures, in particular, convolutional neural networks and recurrent neural networks. We willthen present recent techniques related to generative modeling, weakly supervised learning and reinforcement learning. Specifically, the following topics will be covered:
· Deep learning: motivation and historical context, multilayer networks, convolutional networks;
· Training: backpropagation, gradient descent, regularization, data augmentation;
· Recurrent networks: gradient propagation, LSTM networks, multi-scale networks, applications;
· Generative models: autoencoders, generative adversarial networks, applications;
· Learning with reduced supervision: weakly and semi supervised learning, attention models, curricular learning;
· Reinforcement learning: Markov decision process, dynamic programing, temporal difference learning, Monte Carlo methods.
