About the Workshop

Join us for a 12-part, hands-on series that teaches you how to work with images, build and train models, and explore tasks like image classification, segmentation, object detection, and image generation. Each session combines straightforward explanations with practical coding in PyTorch and FiftyOne, allowing you to learn core skills in computer vision and apply them to real-world tasks.

In this session, we’ll explore CNN fundamentals by diving into the mechanics of convolutions and pooling. Participants will implement LeNet5 to grasp how basic convolutional layers operate, with practical insights on the features produced by convolutions using FiftyOne.

These are hands-on maker workshops that make use of GitHub Codespaces, Kaggle notebooks, and Google Colab environments, so no local installation is required (though you are welcome to work locally if preferred!)
