Code-Alongs - DS Unit 4 Sprint 15
Preparation for Code-Alongs
What is a Code-Along?
Code-Alongs are live experiences taught by our expert instructors designed to prepare you for concepts found in the sprint challenges. Code-Alongs are your opportunity to work on complex job-ready problems in a live and engaging environment.
Code-Alongs are live classes 50 minutes in length designed to offer deeper insights into learning your core competencies and are offered seven days a week in the morning, afternoon, and evening.
Because Code-Alongs delve deeper into a core competency, you will need to come to class prepared to have the best experience.
Ideal Code-Along Preparation Checklist:
- Did you review the core competencies before coming to class?
- Did you watch the guided projects before coming to class?
- Did you take the checks for understanding before coming to class?
- Did you finish your module projects before coming to class?
Code-Along Sessions
Code-Along 1
LSTM Text Generation
In this code-along, you'll build an LSTM-based text generation model that learns patterns from input text and generates new content. You'll implement a neural network with bidirectional LSTM layers to predict the next words given a seed phrase, creating an AI system that can produce creative text continuations.

Code-Along 2
Variational AutoEncoders
In this code-along, you'll implement a Variational AutoEncoder (VAE) that can generate realistic digit images from random noise. You'll build both encoder and decoder networks, implement the critical reparameterization trick, and train the model to learn a continuous latent space representation of handwritten digits.
