Apply Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) (Coursera)

Offered by DeepLearning.AI,
Apply Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) (Coursera)

In this course, you will: explore the applications of GANs and examine them wrt data augmentation, privacy, and anonymity; leverage the image-to-image translation framework and identify applications to modalities beyond images; implement Pix2Pix, a paired image-to-image translation GAN, to adapt satellite images into map routes (and vice versa); compare paired image-to-image translation to unpaired image-to-image translation and identify how their key difference necessitates different GAN architectures; implement CycleGAN, an unpaired image-to-image translation model, to adapt horses to zebras (and vice versa) with two GANs in one.

The DeepLearning.AI Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) Specialization provides an exciting introduction to image generation with GANs, charting a path from foundational concepts to advanced techniques through an easy-to-understand approach. It also covers social implications, including bias in ML and the ways to detect it, privacy preservation, and more.
Build a comprehensive knowledge base and gain hands-on experience in GANs. Train your own model using PyTorch, use it to create images, and evaluate a variety of advanced GANs.
This Specialization provides an accessible pathway for all levels of learners looking to break into the GANs space or apply GANs to their own projects, even without prior familiarity with advanced math and machine learning research.

Probabilistic Graphical Models 1: Representation (Coursera)

Probabilistic graphical models (PGMs) are a rich framework for encoding probability distributions over complex domains: joint (multivariate) distributions over large numbers of random variables that interact with each other. These representations sit at the intersection of statistics and computer science, relying on concepts from probability theory, graph algorithms, machine learning, and more. They are the basis for the state-of-the-art methods in a wide variety of applications, such as medical diagnosis, image understanding, speech recognition, natural language processing, and many, many more. They are also a foundational tool in formulating many machine learning problems.
