Who this book is for

This book is meant mainly for two types of readers: professionals who use R in their daily work and want to know some of the tricks and best practices that we have discovered in our projects, and anyone who wants to jump into the field of deep learning with concrete use cases in mind. This is not a tutorial in R or machine learning; it is rather a real-world showcase of how deep learning can be used in industry, with examples borrowed from our own experience.
