Overview of this book

TensorFlow has transformed the way machine learning is perceived. TensorFlow Machine Learning Projects teaches you how to exploit the benefits—simplicity, efficiency, and flexibility—of using TensorFlow in various real-world projects. With the help of this book, you’ll not only learn how to build advanced projects using different datasets but also be able to tackle common challenges using a range of libraries from the TensorFlow ecosystem. To start with, you’ll get to grips with using TensorFlow for machine learning projects; you’ll explore a wide range of projects using TensorForest and TensorBoard for detecting exoplanets, TensorFlow.js for sentiment analysis, and TensorFlow Lite for digit classification. As you make your way through the book, you’ll build projects in various real-world domains, incorporating natural language processing (NLP), the Gaussian process, autoencoders, recommender systems, and Bayesian neural networks, along with trending areas such as Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), capsule networks, and reinforcement learning. You’ll learn how to use the TensorFlow on Spark API and GPU-accelerated computing with TensorFlow to detect objects, followed by how to train and develop a recurrent neural network (RNN) model to generate book scripts. By the end of this book, you’ll have gained the required expertise to build full-fledged machine learning projects at work.

Chapter 10. Classifying Clothing Images using Capsule Networks

In this chapter, we will learn how to implement capsule networks on the Fashion MNIST dataset. This chapter will cover the inner workings of capsule networks and explain how to implement them in TensorFlow. You will also learn how to evaluate and optimize the model.

We have chosen capsule networks because they have the ability to preserve the spatial relationships of images. Capsule networks were introduced by Geoff Hinton, et al. They published a paper in 2017 that can be found at https://arxiv.org/abs/1710.09829. Capsule networks gained immense popularity within the deep learning community as a new type of neural network.

By the end of this chapter, we will be able to classify clothing using capsule networks after going through the following:

  • Understanding the importance of capsule networks
  • A brief understanding of capsules 
  • The routing by agreement algorithm
  • The implementation of the CapsNet architecture for classifying Fashion...
