Deep Learning is a branch of machine learning that utilizes neural networks. But how does a neural network work, and how does deep learning solve machine learning problems?

In this workshop, you will learn how to get started with deep learning using one of the most popular frameworks for implementing deep learning – TensorFlow. You will also use another API – Keras, which is built on top of TensorFlow, to make deep learning more user-friendly and easier.
