<div><strong>Happy 2020 and we actually stepped into the next decade.</strong> We are in the middle of extremely busy tasks related to:- IEEE SoutheastCon 2020 in next 60 days and finalizing our 2020 IEEE ENCS RA24 chapter team.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>So for Jan 2020 monthly technical session - to keep the first monday legacy, we want all of our R&A enthusiasts to start self paced learning approach on "Practical Deep Learning Introduction and Image Classification" videos from Jeremy Howard. We appreciate Jeremy's effort on Deep learning and contributions to Fred Hollows foundation. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Further please use your own choice of platforms Crestle, AWS or Nvidia Jetson for coding and testing fastai deep learning environment. Our regular monthly sessions are expected to resume on 02/03/20, during which we will talk about integration of applicable additional deep learning concepts for our STEM motivational humanoid variant projects.</div>
