Overview of this book

This book will take you from the basics of neural networks to advanced implementations of architectures using a recipe-based approach. We will learn about how neural networks work and the impact of various hyper parameters on a network's accuracy along with leveraging neural networks for structured and unstructured data. Later, we will learn how to classify and detect objects in images. We will also learn to use transfer learning for multiple applications, including a self-driving car using Convolutional Neural Networks. We will generate images while leveraging GANs and also by performing image encoding. Additionally, we will perform text analysis using word vector based techniques. Later, we will use Recurrent Neural Networks and LSTM to implement chatbot and Machine Translation systems. Finally, you will learn about transcribing images, audio, and generating captions and also use Deep Q-learning to build an agent that plays Space Invaders game. By the end of this book, you will have developed the skills to choose and customize multiple neural network architectures for various deep learning problems you might encounter.

DeepDream algorithm to generate images

In the previous section, we tweaked the input image's pixels slightly. In this section, we will tweak the input image a little more so that we can come up with an image that is still of the same object, however a little more artistic than the original one. This algorithm forms the backbone of style-transfer techniques using neural networks.

Let's go through the intuition of how DeepDream works.

We will pass our image through a pre-trained model (VGG19, in this example). We already learned that, depending on the input image, certain filters in the pre-trained model activate the most and certain filters activate the least.

We will supply the layers of neural network that we want to activate the most.

The neural network adjusts the input pixel values until we obtain the maximum value of the chosen layers.

However, we will also ensure...
