Are you

• proficient in Python?
• interested in GANs but never quite understood the architecture?

Join UpLevel in our monthly Code-Along!

In this month's code-along, UpLevel co-founder and instructor Jackie will walk through the code required to implement a GAN architecture, using pictures of dog faces. This session is slightly different from the previous code-alongs, due to the amount of code that needs to be covered--this time, the code and data are prepared in advance and will be shared with you during the session itself. After that, all you need to do is take notes and make comments.

What You'll Do

1. Work with pictures of dogs
2. Build a GAN architecture to generate synthetic pictures of dogs
3. Assess whether you generated a cute creature, or an absolute monsters

Datanaut Perks

UpLevel Datanauts* will also get access to the following

• AMA in the final 15 min
• recording of both the code-along and the AMA

Pay-as-You-Wish
