Convolutional Neural Networks and Image Processing (EN)

Description

Workshop is for people who are looking for hands on experience with deep neural networks for image processing, but they didn’t have any real opportunity to do so yet.

Through experiments, we will explore how and why such models work, what are the intuitions behind its’ functionality, and gradually, through simple examples, we’ll come to the models that are commonly used in industry. We will focus on possible use cases for neural net’s internal semantic image representation and how to visualize neural net behavior in the most effective way.
