Python Deep Learning Projects

By: Matthew Lamons, Rahul Kumar, Abhishek Nagaraja

Overview of this book

Deep learning has been gradually revolutionizing every field of artificial intelligence, making application development easier. Python Deep Learning Projects imparts all the knowledge needed to implement complex deep learning projects in the field of computational linguistics and computer vision. Each of these projects is unique, helping you progressively master the subject. You’ll learn how to implement a text classifier system using a recurrent neural network (RNN) model and optimize it to understand the shortcomings you might experience while implementing a simple deep learning system. Similarly, you’ll discover how to develop various projects, including word vector representation, open domain question answering, and building chatbots using seq-to-seq models and language modeling. In addition to this, you’ll cover advanced concepts, such as regularization, gradient clipping, gradient normalization, and bidirectional RNNs, through a series of engaging projects. By the end of this book, you will have gained knowledge to develop your own deep learning systems in a straightforward way and in an efficient way

Let's code the implementation!

To code the implementation, we'll start by defining the hyperparameters, then we will define the model, followed by building and executing the training loop. We conclude by checking to see if our model is overfitting and build an inference code that loads the latest checkpoints and then makes predictions on the basis of learned parameters.

Defining hyperparameters

We will define all of the required hyperparameters in the hy_param.py file and then import it as a module in our other codes. This makes it easy in deployment, and is good practice to make your code as modular as possible. Let's look into the hyperparameter configurations that we have in our hy_param.py file:
