Udacity school of AI Nanodegrees
First cohort to complete the AI nanodegrees. The nanodegree consisted of a symbolic AI base, a strong foundation in deep learning and 3 specialisations. I then became a 5 mentor for these nanodegrees for 2 years.
| Specialisation | Project |
|---|---|
| Computer Vision | Facial Keypoints |
| Natural Language Processing | Machine Translation |
| Voice-User Interface | DNN Speech Recognizer |
Additionally, beta tested the AI for Trading nanodegree.
