AI solutions and machine learning systems have revolutionized everything from the way we work to the way we learn. It has achieved an inflection point and is shaping the future of humanity. The top global tech giants such as Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Apple, Meta, Tesla, etc are investing heavily in the upgradation and development of AI applications. Moreover, according to a report by Precedence Research:

“The global artificial intelligence (AI) market size was estimated at US$ 119.78 billion in 2022 and it is expected to hit US$ 1,597.1 billion by 2030 with a registered CAGR of 38.1% from 2022 to 2030”

These recent trends in the marketplace now demand a more skillful workforce in this sector and have merged as one of the highest-paying fields. Having said so, if you are a Beginner Python Programmer with a keen interest in machine learning and artificial intelligence then this article is for you, so keep on reading.

FreeCodeCamp has released a FREE TensorFlow 2.0 Complete Course – Python Neural Networks for Beginners Tutorial in collaboration with Tim Ruscica, otherwise known as “Tech With Tim” from his educational programming YouTube channel. This 7-hour course teaches about fundamental concepts in ML & AI like core learning algorithms, deep learning with neural networks, computer vision with convolutional neural networks, natural language processing with recurrent neural networks, and reinforcement learning. Let’s jump over to what it covers:

Prerequisites

This course requires you to have a basic knowledge of programming using Python. If you have not worked with python before, then I would personally recommend you to take “Learn Python – Free Course for Beginners by FreeCodeCamp” first before moving over to this one.

Course content

The course is divided into the following 8 Modules:

Module 1: Machine learning fundamentals

This module starts by explaining the basic terminology that will be used throughout the course like Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, Neural Networks, etc. It also discusses the importance of data. What are the labels, and features? And how does the neural network work?

Module 2: Introduction to TensorFlow

This module walks through the following topics:

TensorFlow Install and Setup
Representing Tensors
Tensor Shape and Rank
Types of Tensors

Module 3: Core learning algorithms

This module covers the 4 fundamental machine learning algorithms. These algorithms have been applied to unique problems and datasets after highlighting the use cases of each. The 4 algorithms discussed are

Linear Regression
Classification
Clustering
Hidden Markov Models

Module 4: Neural Networks with TensorFlow

This module goes over the following subtopics:

How does the neural network work?
Creating a neural network
Data preprocessing
Building and training the model
Evaluating the model
Making and verifying the predictions

Module 5: Deep computer vision – Convolutional Neural Networks

In this module, we are taught how to perform image classification and object detection/recognition using deep computer vision with convolutional neural network and explains the following concepts:

Image Data
Convolutional Layer
Pooling Layer
CNN Architectures

Module 6: Natural language processing with RNNs

A new kind of neural network that is much more capable of processing sequential data such as text or characters called a recurrent neural network (RNN) is introduced here. It explains how to use a recurrent neural network to do the following:

Sentiment Analysis
Character Generation

Module 7: Reinforcement learning with Q-Learning

This is the final topic in the course that covers Reinforcement Learning and uses a different technique to make predictions. The topics discussed in this module are as follows:

Basic Terminology
Q-Learning
Q-Learning Example

Module 8: Conclusion and next steps

This module recommends some of the sources as the next steps to further your learning in TensorFlow.
