Practice

  • Seminar: Open In Colab
  • Homework (main): Open In Colab
  • Homework (debug): Open In Colab

From now on, we have two tracks, for pytorch and tensorflow. However, pytorch track is somewhat better supported by the course team. You can choose whichever track you want, but unless you're expertly familiar with your framework, we recommend you to start by completing the task in pytorch and only then reproduce your solution in your chosen framework.

Begin with seminar_<framework>.ipynb and then proceed with homework_<framework>.ipynb.

Note: you're not required to submit assignments in all three frameworks. Pick one and go with it. Maybe switch it occasionally if you want more challenge.
