Yann LeCun: The Father of Deep Learning
LeCun, the French-Canadian genius, has been making neural networks do the twist for decades.
Warning: LeCun's neural networks may cause excessive learning, spontaneous creativity, or irreversible addiction. Proceed with caution.
LeCun's Top 5 Deep Learning Tips
- 1. Don't be a backpropagation bore.
- 2. Convolve your thinking, not just your data.
- 3. Generative networks are not for the faint of heart.
- 4. Feedforward networks are like pizza dough: they need time to rise.
- 5. Never, ever, underestimate the power of overfitting.
