My favorite little book is François Fleuret's: The Little Book of Deep Learning https://fleuret.org/francois/lbdl.html

I love how that site offers a phone-formatted PDF as an option. How thoughtful!

CamperBob2•6m ago

Is there any one who have recommended books on the attention architecture specifically? I have been interested in that for a long time but never gotten around to actually studying it.

achandra03•17m ago

Not a book, but 3blue1brown's video on attention is pretty great: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMlx5fFNoYc
