Understanding Deep Neural Networks with James McCaffrey

My guest this week is Dr. James McCaffrey, research engineer with Microsoft Research. In this show James and I discuss the ins and outs of deep neural networks. James and I cover a ton of ground in this conversation, including recurrent neural nets (RNNs), convolutional neural nets (CNNs), long short term memory (LSTM) networks, residual networks (ResNets), generative adversarial networks (GANs), and more. We also discuss neural network architecture and promising alternative approaches such as symbolic computation and particle swarm optimization.
