On: Deep learning made easy

[visarga]

I like your article. I'd like to try.

By the way, what is the easiest way to use deep learning? Is there a hello-world example? I've been following RBMs for years but I never attempted to train one. It seemed too complex. I've used command line tools like Vowpal Wabbit with success, though.

So, is there an RBM implementation as accessible as VW?

For Matlab, there are several implementations, including the DeepLearningToolbox: https://github.com/rasmusbergpalm/DeepLearnToolbox

For Python there is the great Theano, and the RBM implementations of MORB https://github.com/benanne/morb
