Overview of this book

Keras 2.x Projects explains how to leverage the power of Keras to build and train state-of-the-art deep learning models through a series of practical projects that look at a range of real-world application areas. To begin with, you will quickly set up a deep learning environment by installing the Keras library. Through each of the projects, you will explore and learn the advanced concepts of deep learning and will learn how to compute and run your deep learning models using the advanced offerings of Keras. You will train fully-connected multilayer networks, convolutional neural networks, recurrent neural networks, autoencoders and generative adversarial networks using real-world training datasets. The projects you will undertake are all based on real-world scenarios of all complexity levels, covering topics such as language recognition, stock volatility, energy consumption prediction, faster object classification for self-driving vehicles, and more. By the end of this book, you will be well versed with deep learning and its implementation with Keras. You will have all the knowledge you need to train your own deep learning models to solve different kinds of problems.

Summary

In this chapter, we have reviewed the deep neural network models that are most used in real-life applications. We started from deep feedforward network, which has a structure typical of a three-level neural network; the first layer receives the input signals, and the last returns the output signals. It is a good example of a network in which the signal flow proceeds in one direction.

Then we analyzed CNNs, which divide the input data into various overlapping fragments that are then analyzed to identify the particularities that characterize those fragments. This information is then passed on to the following layer in the form of a feature map containing the relations between neurons and particularities.

Then RNNs were addressed, which are a type of neural networks specializing in the processing of sequential data. This type of network is highly optimized for tasks related...
