Overview of this book

TensorFlow is an open source software library for Machine Intelligence. The independent recipes in this book will teach you how to use TensorFlow for complex data computations and allow you to dig deeper and gain more insights into your data than ever before. With the help of this book, you will work with recipes for training models, model evaluation, sentiment analysis, regression analysis, clustering analysis, artificial neural networks, and more. You will explore RNNs, CNNs, GANs, reinforcement learning, and capsule networks, each using Google's machine learning library, TensorFlow. Through real-world examples, you will get hands-on experience with linear regression techniques with TensorFlow. Once you are familiar and comfortable with the TensorFlow ecosystem, you will be shown how to take it to production. By the end of the book, you will be proficient in the field of machine intelligence using TensorFlow. You will also have good insight into deep learning and be capable of implementing machine learning algorithms in real-world scenarios.

Using the matrix inverse method

In this recipe, we will use TensorFlow to solve two-dimensional linear regression with the matrix inverse method.

Getting ready

Linear regression can be represented as a set of matrix equations, say . Here, we are interested in solving the coefficients in matrix x. We have to be careful if our observation matrix (design matrix) A is not square. The solution to solving x can be expressed as . To show that this is indeed the case, we will generate two-dimensional data, solve it in TensorFlow, and plot the result.
