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

Who this book is for

This book is perfect for you if you've undertaken at least one course in machine learning and have a modest functional proficiency in Python (meaning you can create programs in Python when supported by examples). Many of our readers will be undergraduates at university studying computer science, statistics, mathematics, physics, biology, chemistry, marketing, and business. Deep learning technologies are being applied to all the professions that these degrees prepare you for, and this book is a great way to learn skills that will be applicable to your success. Postgraduates will appreciate the instruction level, too, as the projects selected are directly applicable to the modern job market, from tech start-ups to enterprise applications.

Python Deep Learning Projects is focused at the core of the data science pipeline – model building, training, evaluation, and validation. Additional pre- and post-data science engineering processes are required in the data pipeline for production applications that we cannot address here due to space considerations, but that we are looking to address in a future publication.
