TensorFlow Machine Learning Cookbook

By: Nick McClure

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 will let you dig deeper and gain more insights into your data than ever before. You’ll work through recipes on training models, model evaluation, sentiment analysis, regression analysis, clustering analysis, artificial neural networks, and deep learning – each using Google’s machine learning library TensorFlow. This guide starts with the fundamentals of the TensorFlow library which includes variables, matrices, and various data sources. Moving ahead, you will get hands-on experience with Linear Regression techniques with TensorFlow. The next chapters cover important high-level concepts such as neural networks, CNN, RNN, and NLP. Once you are familiar and comfortable with the TensorFlow ecosystem, the last chapter will show you how to take it to production.

Productionalizing TensorFlow – An Example


A good practice for productionalizing machine learning models is to separate the training and evaluation programs. Here, we illustrate an evaluation script expanded to include a unit test, model saving and loading, and evaluation.

Getting ready

For this recipe, we will show how to implement an evaluation script, using the above production criteria. The code actually consists of a training script and an evaluation script, but for this recipe, we will only show the evaluation script. As a reminder, both scripts can been seen in the online GitHub repository, https://github.com/nfmcclure/tensorflow_cookbook/.

For the example, we will implement the first RNN example from Chapter 9, Recurrent Neural Networks, which attempts to predict if a text message is spam or ham. We will assume the RNN model is trained and saved, along with the vocabulary.

How to do it…

  1. We start by loading the necessary libraries and declaring the TensorFlow application flags:
