Code Comparison

ML-Course-Notes:

import numpy as np
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from sklearn.linear_model import LogisticRegression
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size=0.2, random_state=42)
model = LogisticRegression()

stanford-cs-230-deep-learning:

import tensorflow as tf
model = tf.keras.Sequential([
    tf.keras.layers.Dense(64, activation='relu', input_shape=(784,)),
    tf.keras.layers.Dense(10, activation='softmax')
])
model.compile(optimizer='adam', loss='categorical_crossentropy', metrics=['accuracy'])

The code snippets demonstrate the difference in focus between the two repositories. ML-Course-Notes provides examples using popular machine learning libraries like scikit-learn, while stanford-cs-230-deep-learning emphasizes deep learning frameworks such as TensorFlow.

Pros of AI-For-Beginners

• Comprehensive curriculum covering various AI topics beyond deep learning
• Includes hands-on coding exercises and projects for practical learning
• Regularly updated with contributions from the community

Cons of AI-For-Beginners

• Less focused on deep learning specifically compared to stanford-cs-230-deep-learning
• May be overwhelming for absolute beginners due to its broad scope
• Lacks the academic rigor of a Stanford course

Code Comparison

stanford-cs-230-deep-learning (Python):

# Example of a neural network layer
class Dense(Layer):
    def __init__(self, input_dim, output_dim, activation):
        self.weights = np.random.randn(input_dim, output_dim) * 0.01
        self.bias = np.zeros((1, output_dim))
        self.activation = activation

AI-For-Beginners (Python):

# Example of a simple neural network
class NeuralNetwork:
    def __init__(self, input_size, hidden_size, output_size):
        self.hidden_layer = Layer(input_size, hidden_size)
        self.output_layer = Layer(hidden_size, output_size)

Both repositories provide code examples, but AI-For-Beginners tends to offer more diverse and practical implementations across various AI topics, while stanford-cs-230-deep-learning focuses specifically on deep learning concepts and implementations.

Pros of tensorflow-deep-learning

• More comprehensive and practical, with hands-on code examples
• Regularly updated with the latest TensorFlow features
