Exercise

• Follow along the video running the notebook presented in the hands-on part. This notebook can be run from google colab (if you have a google account) which is recommended since it lets you have access to a GPU. Otherwise you can also run it remotely on binder (but with no GPU). If you prefer to run it locally, you can download the .ipynb file :

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/neurodatascience/course-materials-2020/master/lectures/15-may/02-applications-of-deep-learning/mtl_deep_learning_jakubkaczmarzyk.ipynb

• Follow up with François Paugam to validate you completed the exercise correctly.
• 🎉 🎉 🎉 you completed this training module! 🎉 🎉 🎉
