Three major types of deep learning models will be covered, including convolution neural networks (CNN) mainly used in computer vision, recurrent neural networks (RNN) mainly targeting time-series problems, and the latest Transformer that can be used in both computer vision and time-series analysis. Their extensions, e.g., different CNN architectures, RNN extensions (GRU, LSTM), Transformer based (BERT for language modeling and DETR, ViT for computer vision), and their typical applications will also be introduced. Finally, a general pipeline of applying deep learning to practical problems will be presented.
