Overview of this book

Deep Learning is the next big thing. It is a part of machine learning. It's favorable results in applications with huge and complex data is remarkable. Simultaneously, R programming language is very popular amongst the data miners and statisticians. This book will help you to get through the problems that you face during the execution of different tasks and Understand hacks in deep learning, neural networks, and advanced machine learning techniques. It will also take you through complex deep learning algorithms and various deep learning packages and libraries in R. It will be starting with different packages in Deep Learning to neural networks and structures. You will also encounter the applications in text mining and processing along with a comparison between CPU and GPU performance. By the end of the book, you will have a logical understanding of Deep learning and different deep learning packages to have the most appropriate solutions for your problems.

Preface

Performing logistic regression using TensorFlow


In this section, we will cover the application of TensorFlow in setting up a logistic regression model. The example will use a similar dataset to that used in the H2O model setup.

Getting ready

The previous chapter provided details for the installation of TensorFlow. The code for this section is created on Linux but can be run on any operating system. To start modeling, load the tensorflow package in the environment. R loads the default TensorFlow environment variable and also the NumPy library from Python in the np variable:

library("tensorflow") # Load TensorFlow 
np <- import("numpy") # Load numpy library

How to do it...

The data is imported using a standard function from R, as shown in the following code.

  1. The data is imported using the read.csv file and transformed into the matrix format followed by selecting the features used to model as defined in xFeatures and yFeatures. The next step in TensorFlow is to set up a graph to run optimization...
