Deep Learning with Andrej Karpathy
By Sophie Curtis on November 27, 2015 Andrej Karpathy is a 5th year PhD student at Stanford University, studying deep learning and its applications in computer vision and natural language processing (NLP). In particular, his recent work has focused on image captioning, recurrent neural network language models and reinforcement learning. Before joining Stanford he completed an undergraduate degree in Computer Science and Physics at the University of Toronto and a Computer Science Master’s degree at the University of British Columbia, as well as two internships at Google Research in 2011 and 2013, and one at Google DeepMind in 2015.His work and personal expertise has received a lot of media attention, including features in Wired, Gizmodo, LiveScience, The Economist, Popular Mechanics and Bloomberg, to name a few. In particular, a fun project he created that uses convolutional neural networks to distinguish what…
