Side Project Ideas
Brainstorming for the December 2017 - New Year’s 2018 Break
Hi All,
With an extended holiday break coming up in about a month, I thought it would be good to start a discussion for ideas / collaboration for side projects. This is for those who might have some bandwidth over the December through New Year’s break. It seems like a good opportunity to keep practicing the deep learning skills from DL1 in preparation for DL2.
Project Suggestions (it’s a wikipost, edit the post and add your ideas below)
- (e.g build a image classifier for xxx, or work with embedding model fo ____)
- Make a more accessible AI-component-based library (targetted toward younger ages)
- Google’s AIY Vision Kit
- Contribute to fast.ai libraries
DL Walkthroughs / Tutorial Suggestions
- (e.g. a step-by-step walkthrough of convolutions using only numpy)
- Recreate fast.ai components from scratch, in prep for part 2
- Face Detection
- Face Filters
- LIcense Plate detection
- Object Search Enginer
- Image captioning / tagging
- DNN from scratch in Python
Articles on DL1 Topics
- (e.g. discuss the importance of dropout with a comparison, comments on learning rates)
- Structured deep learning - Another exploration
- A Rossman-like forecasting approach to a different forecasting competition / data
- Shuffling features then passing through deep learning (for feature sig.)
- Doing Partial Dependence on DNN models
Ideally, if this post can be turned into a wiki, feel free to add your idea to one of the sections above? Then we can discuss who might be interested in different projects?

@jeremy I don’t know if this is the right format for something like this. Maybe make this post a wiki so people can edit? Also, if you have any suggestions, maybe we can collect it here?
