Machine Learning with TensorFlow 1.x

By: Quan Hua, Saif Ahmed, Shams Ul Azeem

Overview of this book

Google's TensorFlow is a game changer in the world of machine learning. It has made machine learning faster, simpler, and more accessible than ever before. This book will teach you how to easily get started with machine learning using the power of Python and TensorFlow 1.x. Firstly, you’ll cover the basic installation procedure and explore the capabilities of TensorFlow 1.x. This is followed by training and running the first classifier, and coverage of the unique features of the library including data ?ow graphs, training, and the visualization of performance with TensorBoard—all within an example-rich context using problems from multiple industries. You’ll be able to further explore text and image analysis, and be introduced to CNN models and their setup in TensorFlow 1.x. Next, you’ll implement a complete real-life production system from training to serving a deep learning model. As you advance you’ll learn about Amazon Web Services (AWS) and create a deep neural network to solve a video action recognition problem. Lastly, you’ll convert the Caffe model to TensorFlow and be introduced to the high-level TensorFlow library, TensorFlow-Slim. By the end of this book, you will be geared up to take on any challenges of implementing TensorFlow 1.x in your machine learning environment.

Conventions

In this book, you will find a number of text styles that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles and an explanation of their meaning.

Code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles are shown as follows: "We can include other contexts through the use of the include directive."

A block of code is set as follows:

batch_size = 128 
num_steps = 10000
learning_rate = 0.3
data_showing_step = 500

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

Layer 1 CONV (32, 28, 28, 4) 
Layer 2 CONV (32, 14, 14, 4)
Layer 3 CONV (32, 7, 7, 4)

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

sudo apt-get install python-pip python-dev

New terms and important words are shown in bold.
