With type 2 diabetes, the body either resists the effects of insulin (a hormone that regulates the movement of sugar into cells) or it doesn't produce enough insulin to maintain normal glucose levels.

A Practical Introduction to Deep Learning with Caffe and Python

The goal of this blog post is to give you a hands-on introduction to deep learning. To do this, we will build a Cat/Dog image classifier using a deep learning algorithm called convolutional neural network. This post is divided into 2 main parts. The first part covers some core concepts behind deep learning, while the second part is structured in a hands-on tutorial format. We will use some Python code and a popular open source deep learning framework called Caffe to build the classifier.
