I know this is off-topic, but you can't go wrong with Keras. "Deep Learning with Python" by Francois Chollet (the creator of Keras) is a Kernighan-level book. A book like this comes around once a decade (or two). If you decide to go for it though, make sure you don't follow its instructions about the amazon cloud deep learning VM's; you'll end up paying $10 per day, even if you stop the VM.
- rossdavidh 8y agoHow dare you add real information to our conversation here. :)
- Lyingdutchman 8y agoSomewhat late question: What would you recommend as the alternative for someone without nvidia gpu? Google colab?
- credit_guy 8y agoI don't have a good answer to that (i.e. that I personally checked). However, FastAI lists some solutions in their latest version of the "practical deep learning for coders" course [1]. The google cloud version for example [2] was calculated to cost only about $40-$50 for the duration of their course (2 months), which is way, way better than the $10/day on AWS that I tried.

- Lyingdutchman 8y agoI was aware of the fast.ai course, but not those guides. Thank you.
