To be successful at this project, you should have a good knowledge of deep learning; i.e., you should be familiar with the way deep neural networks are typically built and trained, and certainly you should be familiar with the individual components that you plan to implement. My recommendation is to start with the references given in the project description, each paper also has some useful references that are really helpful. Also make sure to search through the list archives for other messages about the Essential Deep Learning project. http://mlpack.org/pipermail/mlpack/ There is a lot of information that has been written about this project over the past years. I hope this is helpful. Thanks, Marcus > On 10 Mar 2017, at 17:28, Aparna Kumari <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi, > > I am Aparna, an undergrad student at BITS Pilani, India.
