Overview of this book

This book will teach you how to deploy large-scale dataset in deep neural networks with Hadoop for optimal performance. Starting with understanding what deep learning is, and what the various models associated with deep neural networks are, this book will then show you how to set up the Hadoop environment for deep learning. In this book, you will also learn how to overcome the challenges that you face while implementing distributed deep learning with large-scale unstructured datasets. The book will also show you how you can implement and parallelize the widely used deep learning models such as Deep Belief Networks, Convolutional Neural Networks, Recurrent Neural Networks, Restricted Boltzmann machines and autoencoder using the popular deep learning library Deeplearning4j. Get in-depth mathematical explanations and visual representations to help you understand the design and implementations of Recurrent Neural network and Denoising Autoencoders with Deeplearning4j. To give you a more practical perspective, the book will also teach you the implementation of large-scale video processing, image processing and natural language processing on Hadoop. By the end of this book, you will know how to deploy various deep neural networks in distributed systems using Hadoop.

Convolutional layer using Deeplearning4j


This section of the chapter will provide the basic idea on how to write the code for CNN using Deeplearning4j. You'll be able to learn the syntax for using the various hyperparameters mentioned in this chapter.

To implement CNN using Deeplearning4j, the whole idea can be split into three core phases: loading data or preparation of the data, network configuration, and training and evaluation of the model.

Loading data

For CNNs, generally, we only work on the image data to train the model. In Deeplearning4j, the images can be read using ImageRecordReader. The following code snippet shows how to load 16×16 color images for the model:

RecordReader imageReader = new ImageRecordReader(16, 16, false);
imageReader.initialize(new FileSplit(new      
File(System.getProperty("user.home"), "image_location")));

After that, using CSVRecordReader, we can load all the image labels from the input CSV files, as follows:

int numLinesToSkip = 0;
String delimiter = ",";
RecordReader...
