This repository provides educational materials for Udacity's Deep Learning Nanodegree Foundation program, offering hands-on tutorials and project implementations for various deep learning concepts. It targets individuals seeking to learn and apply deep learning techniques, enabling them to build and train models for tasks like sentiment analysis, image classification, and text generation.

How It Works

The repository is structured around Jupyter notebooks that guide users through implementing deep learning models using Python libraries such as TensorFlow, TFLearn, and NumPy. It covers foundational concepts like weight initialization, batch normalization, and autoencoders, progressing to more advanced architectures like Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs), and Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs). The approach emphasizes practical application through code, allowing users to replicate and experiment with state-of-the-art deep learning techniques.

Quick Start & Requirements

• Install dependencies using pip3 install -r requirements.txt within each directory.
• Conda environment files are available in the environments folder, with GPU-specific versions noted.
• Requires Python and standard deep learning libraries (TensorFlow, NumPy). GPU support is recommended for performance.
• Official documentation and program details are available via Udacity.

Highlighted Details

• Tutorials cover sentiment analysis, TensorFlow basics, weight initialization, autoencoders, transfer learning, character-wise RNNs, Word2Vec embeddings, TensorBoard visualization, Q-learning, sequence-to-sequence models, batch normalization, and GANs.
• Projects include implementing a neural network for bike rental prediction, image classification with CNNs, text generation with RNNs, machine translation with sequence-to-sequence models, and face generation with DCGANs.
• Notebooks guide the implementation of models using both NumPy and high-level libraries like TensorFlow and TFLearn.
