A Refresher Guide to Convolution Neural Networks

A Part of Weekend Series

Welcome to one of the On Weekend Series, this series helped me a lot before, and I hope it helps you now. And this book is about the techniques that you should learn to learn, understand and bulid a convolution neural network. I hope you find what you need in this book.

About the Book

The goal of any Convolution Neural Network is to learn higher-order features from data representation, achieving that via convolutions. This type of Neural Nets is very good in dealing with tensor data such as images and is well suited to object recognition with consistently top image classification competitions. In this part, I will try to teach you the convolution neural network on weekend.

An online and free version of this part can be found here.

Earn $8 on a $10 Purchase, and $16 on a $20 Purchase

We pay 80% royalties on purchases of $7.99 or more, and 80% royalties minus a 50 cent flat fee on purchases between $0.99 and $7.98. You earn $8 on a $10 sale, and $16 on a $20 sale. So, if we sell 5000 non-refunded copies of your book for $20, you'll earn $80,000.

(Yes, some authors have already earned much more than that on Leanpub.)

In fact, authors have earned over $14 million writing, publishing and selling on Leanpub.
