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.

Training


In order to get a good measure of how the model behaves on data that's unseen during training, the validation dataset is used to compute a validation loss and accuracy during training.

The validation dataset enables us to choose the best model, while the test dataset is only used at the end to get the final test accuracy/error of the model. The training, test, and validation datasets are discrete datasets, with no common examples. The validation dataset is usually 10 times smaller than the test dataset to slow the training process as little as possible. The test dataset is usually around 10-20% of the training dataset. Both the training and validation datasets are part of the training program, since the first one is used to learn, and the second is used to select the best model on unseen data at training time.

The test dataset is completely outside the training process and is used to get the accuracy of the produced model, resulting from training and model selection.

If the model overfits...
