Who this book is for
This book is for data scientists, machine learning developers, and deep learning enthusiasts who are looking to learn and explore the fastai framework using a recipe-based approach. Working knowledge of the Python programming language and machine learning basics are strongly recommended to get the most out of this book.
This book provides practical examples of how to use fastai to tackle a variety of deep learning application areas, but it is not an exhaustive reference for the platform. To get comprehensive details on fastai, please see the Conclusion and additional resources on fastai section in Chapter 8, Extended fastai and Deployment Features. This section points to additional fastai content, including the excellent deep learning courses built around fastai created by Jeremy Howard and his team.
