methodologies.
• Discussing the structure of neural networks (NNs) based on multi perceptron layers.
• Introducing convolutional based NN (CNN) and comparing their performance to the
conventional multi perceptron layers.
• Introducing MNIST dataset.
• Why Pytorch?
• A live coding with the workshop participants using Pytorch and Anaconda.

Workshop preparation and software requirements:

To prepare for the workshop, follow next steps:

1- Install Anaconda on your laptop, use the following link:
