Overview of this book

This book offers a complete overview of Deep Learning with Theano, a Python-based library that makes optimizing numerical expressions and deep learning models easy on CPU or GPU. The book provides some practical code examples that help the beginner understand how easy it is to build complex neural networks, while more experimented data scientists will appreciate the reach of the book, addressing supervised and unsupervised learning, generative models, reinforcement learning in the fields of image recognition, natural language processing, or game strategy. The book also discusses image recognition tasks that range from simple digit recognition, image classification, object localization, image segmentation, to image captioning. Natural language processing examples include text generation, chatbots, machine translation, and question answering. The last example deals with generating random data that looks real and solving games such as in the Open-AI gym. At the end, this book sums up the best -performing nets for each task. While early research results were based on deep stacks of neural layers, in particular, convolutional layers, the book presents the principles that improved the efficiency of these architectures, in order to help the reader build new custom nets.

Generative models

A generative model in neural processing is a model that generates data given a noise vector z as input:

Generative models

The purpose of the training is to find the parameters to generate data as close as possible to the real data.

Applications of generative networks include data dimensionality reduction, synthetic data generation, unsupervised feature learning, and pre-training / training efficiency. Pre-training helps generalization because pre-training focuses on the patterns in the data, and less on the data-label relation.

Restricted Boltzmann Machines

A Restricted Boltzmann Machine is the simplest generative net, composed of one fully connected hidden layer, as shown in the picture:

Restricted Boltzmann Machines

The full Boltzmann Machines have also hidden-to-hidden and visible-to-visible loop connections, while the Restricted version does not have any.

In the general case, RBM are defined as energy-based models, which means that they define a probability distribution through an energy function:
