Deep learning specialization, finished course 4 [Post #29, Day 100]

Well it has been quite a hiatus, and what do you know, I am on Day 100!
I have just completed Course 4 of 5 of the Deep Learning Specialization from DeepLearning.AI. This course was all about convolutional neural networks which aren't my primary interest. They are still interesting to learn about, basically all things one can do with images, from object detection (for self-driving cars) to facial recognition, to the most recent section on neural style transfer. Right now I am letting the code in the final programming assignment run to create an image with my face as the content image, and a painting of Claude Monet as the style image, we'll see what we get for the generated image.
I'm excited for the final course as it covers sequence models and transformer architecture with the attention mechanism.
