Deep Learning Is Nothing

Deep-Learning-Is-Nothing presents deep learning concepts in an approachable, from-scratch style that demystifies the stack behind modern models. It typically begins with linear algebra, calculus, and optimization refreshers before moving to perceptrons, multilayer networks, and gradient-based training. Implementations favor small, readable examples—often NumPy first—to show how forward and backward passes work without depending solely on high-level frameworks. Once the fundamentals are clear, the material extends to CNNs, RNNs, and attention mechanisms, explaining why each architecture suits particular tasks. Practical sections cover data pipelines, regularization, and evaluation, emphasizing reproducibility and debugging techniques. The goal is to replace buzzwords with intuition so learners can reason about architectures and training dynamics with confidence.
