This document targets a practical and comprehensive introduction of everything

related to deep learning in the context of physical simulations.

As much as possible, all topics come with hands-on code examples in the form of Jupyter notebooks to quickly get started.

Beyond standard _supervised_ learning from data, we'll look at _physical loss_ constraints,

more tightly coupled learning algorithms with _differentiable simulations_, as well as extensions such

as reinforcement learning and uncertainty modeling.
