Overview of this book

Organizations these days need to integrate popular big data tools such as Apache Spark with highly efficient deep learning libraries if they’re looking to gain faster and more powerful insights from their data. With this book, you’ll discover over 80 recipes to help you train fast, enterprise-grade, deep learning models on Apache Spark. Each recipe addresses a specific problem, and offers a proven, best-practice solution to difficulties encountered while implementing various deep learning algorithms in a distributed environment. The book follows a systematic approach, featuring a balance of theory and tips with best practice solutions to assist you with training different types of neural networks such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and recurrent neural networks (RNNs). You’ll also have access to code written in TensorFlow and Keras that you can run on Spark to solve a variety of deep learning problems in computer vision and natural language processing (NLP), or tweak to tackle other problems encountered in deep learning. By the end of this book, you'll have the skills you need to train and deploy state-of-the-art deep learning models on Apache Spark.

Evaluating the recommendation engine's accuracy


We can now calculate the accuracy rate of our deep learning model built on Keras.

Getting ready

Evaluating a Sequential model for accuracy requires using the model.evaluate() function within Keras.

How to do it...

We can simply calculate the accuracy score, accuracy_rate, by executing the following script:

score = model.evaluate(xtest_array, ytest_OHE, batch_size=128)
accuracy_rate = score[1]*100
print('accuracy is {}%'.format(round(accuracy_rate,2)))

How it works...

Our model performance is based on evaluating our test features, xtest_array, with our test labels, ytest_OHE. We can use model.evaluate() and set the batch_size for evaluation at 128 elements. We can see that our accuracy is around 39%, as seen in the following screenshot:

This means that we are able to determine the rating by a user between 0 and 5 and at nearly a 39% accuracy rate.
