Deep Learning By Example

Overview of this book

Deep learning is a popular subset of machine learning, and it allows you to build complex models that are faster and give more accurate predictions. This book is your companion to take your first steps into the world of deep learning, with hands-on examples to boost your understanding of the topic. This book starts with a quick overview of the essential concepts of data science and machine learning which are required to get started with deep learning. It introduces you to Tensorflow, the most widely used machine learning library for training deep learning models. You will then work on your first deep learning problem by training a deep feed-forward neural network for digit classification, and move on to tackle other real-world problems in computer vision, language processing, sentiment analysis, and more. Advanced deep learning models such as generative adversarial networks and their applications are also covered in this book. By the end of this book, you will have a solid understanding of all the essential concepts in deep learning. With the help of the examples and code provided in this book, you will be equipped to train your own deep learning models with more confidence.

Recurrent-Type Neural Networks - Language Modeling

Recurrent neural networks (RNNs) are a class of deep learning architectures that are widely used for natural language processing. This set of architectures enables us to provide contextual information for current predictions and also have specific architecture that deals with long-term dependencies in any input sequence. In this chapter, we'll demonstrate how to make a sequence-to-sequence model, which will be useful in many applications in NLP. We will demonstrate these concepts by building a character-level language model and see how our model generates sentences similar to original input sequences.

The following topics will be covered in this chapter:

  • The intuition behind RNNs
  • LSTM networks
  • Implementation of the language model
