I recently wrote an article compiling free machine learning and deep learning ebooks. It was well-received, and so I have decided to follow up with a second installation.
If you’re interested in delving into the intricacies of deep learning and want some FREE resources, carry on reading.
Deep Learning: Technical Introduction
By Thomas Epelbaum
This ebook goes through the three most common forms of neural network architectures: Feedforward, Convolutional and Recurrent. You will gain a deeper understanding of each architecture to help build your deep learning knowledge.
Neural Networks and Deep Learning
By Charu C. Aggarwal
Neural Networks and deep learning - pretty much all you need to know about deep learning. In this book, you will start with the foundations of neural networks and its basic architecture and then move on to the intricacies of training a neural network, and more.
Neural Networks and Deep Learning
By Michael Nielsen
In this ebook, you will learn how to use neural nets to recognize handwritten digits, how the backpropagation algorithm works, improving the way neural networks learn, a visual proof that neural nets can compute any function, why deep neural networks are hard to retrain, and more foundations of deep learning.
Dive into Deep Learning
By Aston Zhang, Zachary C. Lipton, Mi Li, and Alexander J. Smole
This e-book not only gives you a great overview of deep learning, but it starts with the foundations and the depths of machine learning. It takes you on a journey by first understanding machine learning before getting into the application of neural networks and deep learning. A deep book that covers pretty much everything.
Neural Network Design
By Martin T. Hagan, Howard B. Demuth, Mark Hudson Beale, and Orlando De Jesús
In this ebook, you will first start with understanding the foundations of the Neuron Model and Network Architectures and then further go into the perceptron learning rule. You will then get more theory around vector spaces, linear transformation, and more.
Deep Learning Methods and Applications
By Li Deng and Dong Yu
Created by Microsoft researchers Li Deng and Dong Yu, this ebook gives you an overview of the methodologies behind deep learning and their different types of applications. You will go further into speech and audio processing, NLP, information retrieval, and more.
Applied Deep Learning
By Umberto Michelucci
This ebook is a case-based approach to understanding Deep Neural Networks. Chapters include computational graphs and TensorFlow, single neurons, feedforward neural networks, training neural networks, regularization, metric analysis, hyperparameter tuning, convolutional and recurrent neural networks, logistic regression from scratch, and a research project.
Advanced Applications for Artificial Neural Networks
By Adel El-Shahat
??Researchers put their brains together and came to write this book about the importance of artificial neural networks and their advanced applications. It provides case studies such as hardware ANN for gait generation of multi-legged robots, production of high-resolution soil property ANN maps, and more. If you’re interested in knowing more about the current capabilities of artificial neural networks, and what they can do in the future - this is a book for you.
Deep Learning Interviews: Problems and Solutions
By Shlomo Kashani
Learning and being able to apply the content is always what people think is the most difficult part. When in fact, being able to ace the interview that gets you the job you’ve always wanted is the real challenge. This ebook goes through real-world deep-learning interview problems and solutions to help you prepare.
Physics-based Deep Learning
By N. Thuerey, P. Holl, M. Mueller, P. Schnell, F. Trost, and K. Um
This ebook goes through the practical and comprehensive introduction of deep learning in the context of physical simulations. You are provided with hands-on code examples using Jupyter notebooks. Topics include physical losses, differentiable physics, NNS, reinforcement learning, and more.
Deep Learning
By Ian Goodfellow, Yoshua Bengio, and Aaron Courville
This ebook has two sections, the first starting off with Math and the basics of machine learning and the second moving into deep neural networks. You will be able to transition from machine learning to deep learning and understand how they apply to one another. You also have access to exercises and lectures to cater to your study needs.
Deep Learning on Graphs
By Yao Ma and Jiliang Tang
Graphs have been used to represent data for a very long time now. It’s easily interpretable, explainable, and simple. This ebook goes into the importance of graphs in the representation of deep learning as well as going in-depth on the foundations, methods, applications, and advances.
Deep Learning for Coders with Fastai and Pytorch: AI Applications Without a PhD
By Howard, J. and Gugger, S.
This ebook on GitHub has many chapters, but as we are focusing on deep learning I will attach the link for that - but feel free to have a gander at the other chapters available. In the deep learning chapter, you will understand more about neural networks and how the Jupyter notebook works. It focuses on the fastai deep learning library and how you can walk through it with them and get a more practical understanding of deep learning.
Explanatory Model Analysis: Explore, Explain, and Examine Predictive Models
By Przemyslaw Biecek and Tomasz Burzykowski
Explaining the analysis of a model is a skill in itself. It’s the skill you need to help a business make the right decision for the company to improve and continuously grow. Companies need people with these skills!
Algebra, Topology, Differential Calculus, and Optimization Theory For Computer Science and Machine Learning
By Jean Gallier and Jocelyn Quaintance
If you want to learn more about Mathematics and how it applies to Computer Science and Machine Learning - this is what you need to read. It is a deep ebook that goes through math in so much depth that once you finish this book, I'm convinced you will have graduated with a master's in Math.
Wrapping it up
Deep learning and machine learning are one, so if you are struggling with understanding the concept of deep learning you may need to go back and review machine learning. Check out the previous installment of free machine learning and deep learning books.
