AbstractThis lab introduces deep learning through the PyTorch framework in a series of hands-on exercises, exploring topics in computer vision, natural language processing, audio processing, graph neural networks, and representation learning.
Learning objectiveThis P&S introduces deep learning through the PyTorch framework in a series of hands-on examples, exploring topics in computer vision, natural language processing, graph neural networks, and representation learning.

With the objective to expose students to both common and cutting-edge neural architectures and to build intuition about their inner working by the means of examples.

Students learn about various network structures as building blocks and use them to solve worked examples and course challenges. After attending this course, students will be familiar with multi-layer perceptrons, convolutional neural networks, recurrent neural networks, transformer encoders, graph convolutional/isomorphism/attention networks, and autoencoders.
