Deep Learning Prerequisites: The Numpy Stack in Python V2
Requirements
- Linear Algebra, Probability, and Python Programming
Description
Welcome! This is Deep Learning, Machine Learning, and Data Science Prerequisites: The Numpy Stack in Python (V2).
The reason I made this course is because there is a huge gap for many students between machine learning "theory" and writing actual code.
As I've always said: "If you can't implement it, then you don't understand it".
Without basic knowledge of data manipulation, vectors, and matrices, students are not able to put their great ideas into working form, on a computer.
This course closes that gap by teaching you all the basic operations you need for implementing machine learning and deep learning algorithms.
The goal is that, after you take this course, you will learn about machine learning algorithms, and implement those algorithms in code using the tools and techniques you learned in this course.
Suggested Prerequisites:
linear algebra
probability
Python programming
Who this course is for:
- Anyone who wants to implement Machine Learning algorithms

Today, I spend most of my time as an artificial intelligence and machine learning engineer with a focus on deep learning, although I have also been known as a data scientist, big data engineer, and full stack software engineer.
I received my first masters degree over a decade ago in computer engineering with a specialization in machine learning and pattern recognition. I received my second masters degree in statistics with applications to financial engineering.
Experience includes online advertising and digital media as both a data scientist (optimizing click and conversion rates) and big data engineer (building data processing pipelines). Some big data technologies I frequently use are Hadoop, Pig, Hive, MapReduce, and Spark.
I've created deep learning models to predict click-through rate and user behavior, as well as for image and signal processing and modeling text.
My work in recommendation systems has applied Reinforcement Learning and Collaborative Filtering, and we validated the results using A/B testing.
I have taught undergraduate and graduate students in data science, statistics, machine learning, algorithms, calculus, computer graphics, and physics for students attending universities such as Columbia University, NYU, Hunter College, and The New School.
Multiple businesses have benefitted from my web programming expertise. I do all the backend (server), frontend (HTML/JS/CSS), and operations/deployment work. Some of the technologies I've used are: Python, Ruby/Rails, PHP, Bootstrap, jQuery (Javascript), Backbone, and Angular. For storage/databases I've used MySQL, Postgres, Redis, MongoDB, and more.
