Hi @aakashns, We started an deep learning study group for fastai a month back. I thought you guys were doing an online meetup. Also, we will be completing part 1 v2 this week. And discussed to take up part 2 v2 in the morning sessions and part 1 v3 in the afternoon sessions.
Sorry for the late notice.
If you are looking for a offline meetup, let’s collaborate, it would be beneficial for the whole community.
Guys, I have been using Tensorflow to build my project. But for this course, they are using Pytorch. So I started to learn Pytorch lately. Wrote this tutorial to use Pytorch efficiently to build model using torch.nn classes and functions. So check out this brief tutorial about Pytorch’s torch.nn module.
26 people attended the meetup today. We began with a round of introductions, followed by excellent technical sessions by @crazydiv and @vinodreddyg . This was followed by an open discussion on several other topics: FastAI in production, FastAI vs. Keras/Tensorflow, Python vs. R/Matlab, how to approach the course, how to find ideas for projects and much more.
Show and tell (blog posts & projects from members)
Discussion of FastAI lecture (doubts, ideas etc.)
Discuss Kaggle competitions and form teams
Technical sessions & paper discussions
Some ideas for future sessions:
Gaining insights from Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA)
Structured way of finding the best hyperparameters
Discussion of Leslie Smith’s paper on Learning Rates
Deploying PyTorch and FastAI models to production
Shout-out to Saurabh Vyas for finding the venue (CoWrks, RMZ Ecoworld).
Also, thanks @jeremy for creating the FastAI course and library, and making it accessible to people around the world! We’re really excited to be a part of the course.
