Recommender Systems and Deep Learning in Python

.MP4, AVC, 30 fps, 1280x720 | English, | 11h 20m | 4.03 GB

Created by Lazy Programmer Inc.The most in-depth course on recommendation systems with deep learning, machine learning, data science, and AI techniquesWhat you'll learnUnderstand and implement accurate recommendations for your users using simple and state-of-the-art algorithmsBig data matrix factorization on Spark with an AWS EC2 clusterMatrix factorization / SVD in pure NumpyMatrix factorization in KerasDeep neural networks, residual networks, and autoencoder in KerasRestricted Boltzmann Machine in TensorflowRequirementsFor earlier sections, just know some basic arithmeticFor advanced sections, know calculus, linear algebra, and probability for a deeper understandingBe proficient in Python and the Numpy stack (see my free course)For the deep learning section, know the basics of using Keras



Description



Believe it or not, almost all online businesses today make use of recommender systems in some way or another.What do I mean by “recommender systems”, and why are they useful?Let’s look at the top 3 websites on the Internet, according to Alexa: Google, YouTube, and Facebook.Recommender systems form the very foundation of these technologies.Google: Search resultsThey are why Google is the most successful technology company today.YouTube: Video dashboardI’m sure I’m not the only one who’s accidentally spent hours on YouTube when I had more important things to do! Just how do they convince you to do that?That’s right. Recommender systems!Facebook: So powerful that world governments are worried that the newsfeed has too much influence on people! (Or maybe they are worried about losing their own power… hmm…)Amazing!This course is a big bag of tricks that make recommender systems work across multiple platforms.We’ll look at popular news feed algorithms, like Reddit, Hacker News, and Google PageRank.We’ll look at Bayesian recommendation techniques that are being used by a large number of media companies today.But this course isn’t just about news feeds.Companies like Amazon, Netflix, and Spotify have been using recommendations to suggest products, movies, and music to customers for many years now.These algorithms have led to billions of dollars in added revenue.So I assure you, what you’re about to learn in this course is very real, very applicable, and will have a huge impact on your business.For those of you who like to dig deep into the theory to understand how things really work, you know this is my specialty and there will be no shortage of that in this course. We’ll be covering state of the art algorithms like matrix factorization and deep learning (making use of both supervised and unsupervised learning - Autoencoders and Restricted Boltzmann Machines), and you’ll learn a bag full of tricks to improve upon baseline results.As a bonus, we will also look how to perform matrix factorization using big data in Spark. We will create a cluster using Amazon EC2 instances with Amazon Web Services (AWS). Most other courses and tutorials look at the MovieLens 100k dataset - that is puny! Our examples make use of MovieLens 20 million.Whether you sell products in your e-commerce store, or you simply write a blog - you can use these techniques to show the right recommendations to your users at the right time.If you’re an employee at a company, you can use these techniques to impress your manager and get a raise!I’ll see you in class!NOTE:This course is not "officially" part of my deep learning series. It contains a strong deep learning component, but there are many concepts in the course that are totally unrelated to deep learning.HARD PREREQUISITES / KNOWLEDGE YOU ARE ASSUMED TO HAVE:For earlier sections, just know some basic arithmeticFor advanced sections, know calculus, linear algebra, and probability for a deeper understandingBe proficient in Python and the Numpy stack (see my free course)For the deep learning section, know the basics of using KerasFor the RBM section, know TensorflowTIPS (for getting through the course):Watch it at 2x.Take handwritten notes. This will drastically increase your ability to retain the information.Write down the equations. If you don't, I guarantee it will just look like gibberish.Ask lots of questions on the discussion board. The more the better!The best exercises will take you days or weeks to complete.Write code yourself, don't just sit there and look at my code. This is not a philosophy course!Who this course is for:Anyone who owns or operates an Internet businessStudents in machine learning, deep learning, artificial intelligence, and data scienceProfessionals in machine learning, deep learning, artificial intelligence, and data science
