Project Description

This is my Google Summer of Code 2019 Project with Red Hen Lab.

The Project goal is to design and develops an online course, to teach deep learning for students in the humanities and social sciences. The course will contain basic deep learning theory and labs case studies from multimodal communication.

Project Mentors: Francis Steen, Mark Turner and Rajesh Kasturirangan.

Course Outline

Chapter 0 Background Knowledge

Programming

Math

  • basic matrix, calculus, and statistics.

Chapter 1 Introduction

  • What is artificial intelligence, machine learning, deep learning and their relationship?
  • Environment Setup Anaconda, TensorFlow and Jupyter Lab.

Chapter 2 Perceptron

Perceptron: foundation block of Neural Network

  • How do we learn? (Biological neuron model)
  • How can machine learn? (Artificial neural->Perceptron)

Iris Classification Example

  • Question and Dataset
  • Linear Classifier
  • Implement a perceptron

  • Nodes
  • Input/Output
  • Layer
    • Input Layer
    • Output Layer
    • Hidden Layer: Why we call it hidden layer
  • Connection
    • Fully connected

Chapter 4 Forward Propagation

Forward Process

Matrixs

  • What is Matrix
  • Multiplying Matrixs

Apply Matrix to Neural Network computation

  • Apply Matrix to Neural Network computation

Design the Output Layer

  • Design the Output Layer

Why we use None-linearities activation function?

Chapter 5 Learning: Training Neural Networks

Loss function

  • How well does the neural network predict: Loss Function

    • Example

    • Loss function: Mean Squared Error

    • Why we use squared error instead of raw error?

      The empirical loss measures the total loss over the dataset. Loss function is a function of the Weight.

Learning to minimize error: Gradient Descent method

  • Gradient Descent
    • Minimize error
    • What is Gradient Descent?
      • Greedy algorithm
      • Like Hiking Down a Mountain
      • Simple Example
      • Local minimum

Back Propagation

  • Compute Graph
  • Chain Rule
  • Back Propagation

The error is propagated backwards to the other layers.

Physical Experiment

  • Each student acted as a Neuron
  • Mock Forward Propagation
  • Mock Backward Propagation

Chapter 6 Make your own neural network to classify handwritten digitals

In this chapter, the student will learn how to teach the computer to classify handwritten digits by using MNIST dataset in Python.

DataSet: The dataset I choose for this part is MNIST(Modified National Institute of Standards and Technology) dataset, which has a training set of 60,000 examples, and a test set of 10,000 examples. It is a subset of a larger set available from NIST(National Institute of Standards and Technology) which gives data set of over 800,000 images of handwritten digits from 3,600 writers. The digits have been size-normalized and centered in a fixed-size image.
