Shine a spotlight into the deep learning “black box”. This comprehensive and detailed guide reveals the mathematical and architectural concepts behind deep learning models, so you can customize, maintain, and explain them more effectively.

Inside Math and Architectures of Deep Learning you will find:

• Math, theory, and programming principles side by side
• Linear algebra, vector calculus and multivariate statistics for deep learning
• The structure of neural networks
• Implementing deep learning architectures with Python and PyTorch
• Troubleshooting underperforming models
• Working code samples in downloadable Jupyter notebooks

The mathematical paradigms behind deep learning models typically begin as hard-to-read academic papers that leave engineers in the dark about how those models actually function. Math and Architectures of Deep Learning bridges the gap between theory and practice, laying out the math of deep learning side by side with practical implementations in Python and PyTorch. Written by deep learning expert Krishnendu Chaudhury, you’ll peer inside the “black box” to understand how your code is working, and learn to comprehend cutting-edge research you can turn into practical applications.
