Getting Started with Neural Nets in R - Udemy

Neural networks are one of the most fascinating machine learning models for solving complex computational problems efficiently. Neural networks are used to solve a wide range of problems in different areas of AI and machine learning. 

This course explains the niche aspects of neural networking and provides you with a foundation from which to get started with advanced topics by implementing them in R. This course covers an introduction to neural nets, the R language, and building neural nets from scratch- with R packages; specific worked models are applied to practical problems such as image recognition, pattern recognition, and recommender systems. At the end of the course, you will learn to implement neural network models in your applications with the help of practical examples from companies using neural nets.
