ZeroCostDL4Mic: exploiting Google Colab to develop a free and open-source toolbox for Deep-Learning in microscopy
Tl;dr: this wiki page has everything you need to get started.
What is this?
ZeroCostDL4Mic is a collection of self-explanatory Jupyter Notebooks for Google Colab that features an easy-to-use graphical user interface. They are meant to quickly get you started on learning to use deep-learning for microscopy. Google Colab itself provides the computations resources needed at no-cost. ZeroCostDL4Mic is designed for researchers that have little or no coding expertise to quickly test, train and use popular Deep-Learning networks.

Who is it for?
Any researcher interested in microscopy, independent of their background training. ZeroCostDL4Mic is designed for anyone with little or no coding expertise to quickly test, train and use popular Deep-Learning networks used to process microscopy data.
