Deep learning frameworks, such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs), have almost completely replaced other machine learning techniques for specific tasks such as image recognition using large training datasets. In this webinar, we will go over how CNNs, their training methods, and hardware evolved since LeNet first appeared in the late 1990's. We will examine the challenges that came along, and some key innovations that helped overcome these challenges. We will also look at a guide on how to get started with CNNs, some common pitfalls, and tips and tricks in training CNNs.
