Learn how to use transfer learning in MATLAB to re-train deep learning networks created by experts for your own data or task.
This demo teaches you how to use transfer learning to re-train AlexNet, a pretrained deep convolutional neural network (CNN or ConvNet) to recognize snack food such as hot dogs, cup cakes and apple pie.
You can download the AlexNet support package here:
