Should I learn neural networks before Deep learning ??

Question

Neural Networks

Answer 1

yes it is possible
DeepLearning itself is referred as neural network consist of several nodes

Answer 2

in my opinion you should start with neural networks first before everything else. if you already have experience in programming and know how computers work, you should begin with what AI itself is (how neural networks work, what is an input, a weight, a hidden neural layer, an output) then what deep learning is. as a start you should start working with numpy module and after you have a clear understanding of how you can implement matrices and manipulate them without hesitation, you should visit the tensorflow and/or pytorch module as a start. also pandas module helps a lot in interpreting data obtained from different generation runs and compare the data with what you want to achieve. it might seem a little hard at the beginning but it will all make sense in an end. ai is mostly based on complex algorithms but divide and conquer breaks everything into easier steps to understand what a big complex algorithm does.

Answer 3

Yes, I write neural networks and you need this knowledge to go further into deep learning.

Answer 4

Pacurar Sebastian thankx for this explanation. Will come handy for me as well

Answer 5

Neural networks are part of deep learning, I think it will be easier to first learn the basics of deep learning and after studying neural networks

Answer 6

Don't learn different programming languages.
First be perfect in one Planguage. after that, you can start a new Planguage😊

Answer 7

I don‘t think so. I learn/ed both at the same time and sometimes the one helps me to understand the other one. Sometimes it was a bit harder and sometimes it was a big help. I think the best answer is: First learn both and if you notice it‘s to much learn just one. You have to find your way on your own.

Answer 8

Here's a tip:
If you want to start programming neural networks in python start with pytorch. When you have enough experience try tensorflow.

Answer 9

No, You need to learn how to program first. Doing otherwise will only lead to disappointment and heartache. Life is too short, so such unnecessary activities should be avoided.
