Introduction to geometric deep learning and graph neural networks

This thesis proposes an introduction to the fundamental concepts of supervised deep learning. Starting from Rosemblatt's Perceptron we will discuss the architectures that, in recent years, have revolutioned the world of deep learning: graph neural networks, which led to the formulation of geometric deep learning. We will then give a simple example of graph neural network, discussing the code that composes it and then test our architecture on the MNISTSuperpixels dataset, which is a variation of the benchmark dataset MNIST.
