Hands-On Deep Learning Architectures with Python

By: Yuxi (Hayden) Liu, Saransh Mehta

Overview of this book

Deep learning architectures are composed of multilevel nonlinear operations that represent high-level abstractions; this allows you to learn useful feature representations from the data. This book will help you learn and implement deep learning architectures to resolve various deep learning research problems. Hands-On Deep Learning Architectures with Python explains the essential learning algorithms used for deep and shallow architectures. Packed with practical implementations and ideas to help you build efficient artificial intelligence systems (AI), this book will help you learn how neural networks play a major role in building deep architectures. You will understand various deep learning architectures (such as AlexNet, VGG Net, GoogleNet) with easy-to-follow code and diagrams. In addition to this, the book will also guide you in building and training various deep architectures such as the Boltzmann mechanism, autoencoders, convolutional neural networks (CNNs), recurrent neural networks (RNNs), natural language processing (NLP), GAN, and more—all with practical implementations. By the end of this book, you will be able to construct deep models using popular frameworks and datasets with the required design patterns for each architecture. You will be ready to explore the potential of deep architectures in today's world.

New trends in deep learning

There are many other interesting deep learning models and architectures that are difficult to classify, other than the ones we mentioned in previous chapters, and at the same time, they are the new trends in deep learning and will have a huge impact in years to come. In NLP, BERT (which stands for Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers) became the state-of-the-art language model (for more details, refer to the following paper, which was published by Google: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1810.04805.pdf). As for computer vision, GANs continue to gain popularity and improve. Their inventor, Ian Goodfellow, proposed Attention Generative Adversarial Networks for generating images in finer detail, which includes three new trends, as follows:

  • Bayesian neural networks
  • Capsule networks
  • Meta-learning
