I got the basics of Machine learning (including sample neural nets) from Andrew Ng's course course, two or three years ago. I highly recommend it. Lots of practical advice. The rest came from reading papers and probably some on-line searches. Amazon's Computer Vision team uses deep neural nets. I've talked to some of them and attended some internal presentations. I'm using caffe, so I don’t need to implement the network code itself. Mostly I looked for practical advice about network organizations that work.
