TensorFlow Deep Learning Projects

By: Alexey Grigorev, Rajalingappaa Shanmugamani

Overview of this book

TensorFlow is one of the most popular frameworks used for machine learning and, more recently, deep learning. It provides a fast and efficient framework for training different kinds of deep learning models, with very high accuracy. This book is your guide to master deep learning with TensorFlow with the help of 10 real-world projects. TensorFlow Deep Learning Projects starts with setting up the right TensorFlow environment for deep learning. You'll learn how to train different types of deep learning models using TensorFlow, including Convolutional Neural Networks, Recurrent Neural Networks, LSTMs, and Generative Adversarial Networks. While doing this, you will build end-to-end deep learning solutions to tackle different real-world problems in image processing, recommendation systems, stock prediction, and building chatbots, to name a few. You will also develop systems that perform machine translation and use reinforcement learning techniques to play games. By the end of this book, you will have mastered all the concepts of deep learning and their implementation with TensorFlow, and will be able to build and train your own deep learning models with TensorFlow confidently.

Resorting to Amazon Web Service

As previously noticed, it is warmly suggested you use a GPU in order to train the examples proposed in this chapter. Managing to obtain results in a reasonable time using just a CPU is indeed impossible, and also using a GPU may turn into quite long hours waiting for the computer to complete the training. A solution, requiring the payment of a fee, could be to resort to Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud, also known as Amazon EC2 (https://aws.amazon.com/it/ec2/), part of the Amazon Web Services (AWS). On EC2 you can launch virtual servers that you can control from your computer using the Internet connection. You can require servers with powerful GPUs on EC2 and make your life with TensorFlow projects much easier.

Amazon EC2 is not the only cloud service around. We have suggested you this service because it is the one we used in order to test the code...
