Overview of this book

This Learning Path is your complete guide to quickly getting to grips with popular machine learning algorithms. You'll be introduced to the most widely used algorithms in supervised, unsupervised, and semi-supervised machine learning, and learn how to use them in the best possible manner. Ranging from Bayesian models to the MCMC algorithm to Hidden Markov models, this Learning Path will teach you how to extract features from your dataset and perform dimensionality reduction by making use of Python-based libraries. You'll bring the use of TensorFlow and Keras to build deep learning models, using concepts such as transfer learning, generative adversarial networks, and deep reinforcement learning. Next, you'll learn the advanced features of TensorFlow1.x, such as distributed TensorFlow with TF clusters, deploy production models with TensorFlow Serving. You'll implement different techniques related to object classification, object detection, image segmentation, and more. By the end of this Learning Path, you'll have obtained in-depth knowledge of TensorFlow, making you the go-to person for solving artificial intelligence problems This Learning Path includes content from the following Packt products: • Mastering Machine Learning Algorithms by Giuseppe Bonaccorso • Mastering TensorFlow 1.x by Armando Fandango • Deep Learning for Computer Vision by Rajalingappaa Shanmugamani

Model inference


Any new data can be passed to the model to get the results. This process of getting the classification results or features from an image is termed as inference. Training and inference usually happen on different computers and at different times. We will learn about storing the model, running the inference, and using TensorFlow Serving as the server with good latency and throughput.

Exporting a model

The model after training has to be exported and saved. The weights, biases, and the graph are stored for inference. We will train an MNIST model and store it. Start with defining the constants that are required, using the following code:

work_dir = '/tmp'
model_version = 9
training_iteration = 1000
input_size = 784
no_classes = 10
batch_size = 100
total_batches = 200

The model_version can be an integer to specify which model we want to export for serving. The feature config is stored as a dictionary with placeholder names and their corresponding datatype. The prediction classes and...
