Overview of this book

Deep Learning is revolutionizing a wide range of industries. For many applications, deep learning has proven to outperform humans by making faster and more accurate predictions. This book provides a top-down and bottom-up approach to demonstrate deep learning solutions to real-world problems in different areas. These applications include Computer Vision, Natural Language Processing, Time Series, and Robotics. The Python Deep Learning Cookbook presents technical solutions to the issues presented, along with a detailed explanation of the solutions. Furthermore, a discussion on corresponding pros and cons of implementing the proposed solution using one of the popular frameworks like TensorFlow, PyTorch, Keras and CNTK is provided. The book includes recipes that are related to the basic concepts of neural networks. All techniques s, as well as classical networks topologies. The main purpose of this book is to provide Python programmers a detailed list of recipes to apply deep learning to common and not-so-common scenarios.

Preface

Adding dropouts to prevent overfitting


The most popular to prevent overfitting in neural networks is adding dropouts. In Chapter 2, Feed-Forward Neural Networks, we introduced dropouts, and we've used dropouts throughout the book. In the following recipe, we demonstrate, just like Chapter 2, Feed-Forward Neural Networks, the difference in performance when adding dropouts. This time, we will be using the cifar10 dataset.

How to do it...

  1. We start by importing all libraries as follows:
from keras.models import Sequential
from keras.layers import Dense, Dropout, Activation, Flatten
from keras.layers import Conv2D, MaxPooling2D
from keras.optimizers import Adam
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from keras.utils import to_categorical
from keras.callbacks import EarlyStopping, TensorBoard, ModelCheckpoint

from keras.datasets import cifar10
  1. Next, we load the Cifar10 dataset and pre-process it:
(X_train, y_train), (X_test, y_test) = cifar10.load_data()
validation_split = 0.1
X_train...
