Deep learning libraries/software with good tutorials or examples

Question

I am looking for deep learning libraries that have very good tutorials or examples, since I would like to learn by examples or doing tutorials even if these are not the best deep learning libraries. If they also run on GPUs much better.

http://www.deeplearning.net/tutorial/ uses Theano, which can run on a GPU.

Yes sure. just follow the links on the page mentioned by Adrian. It starts with the classic Logistic Regression and cover deep networks like RBM and DBN. – Emile Dec 19 '12 at 15:41

@Adrian already mentioned Theano. The other big player here is Torch7, which runs on Lua and also has GPU integration. There's a bit of discussion of their relative strengths and weaknesses here.

The course from Hinton at https://class.coursera.org/neuralnets-2012-001/class is the best basic tutorial I found online. I think before you use tutorials from deeplearning.net, this would offer more insight.
