Deep learning and scientific computing with R torch

Abstract

This book aims to be useful to (almost) everyone. Globally speaking, its purposes are threefold: Provide a thorough introduction to torch basics - both by carefully explaining underlying concepts and ideas, and showing enough examples for the reader to become "fluent" in torch. Again with a focus on conceptual explanation, show how to use torch in deep-learning applications, ranging from image recognition over time series prediction to audio classification.
