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.

TensorFlow and Keras

Before proceeding any further, let us quickly set up our coding environment. This book uses Python programming language all throughout the chapters. So, we expect you to have prior knowledge of Python. We will be using two of the most popular deep learning open source frameworks—TensorFlow and Keras. Let's begin with setting up Python first (in case you don't have it installed already).

We highly recommend using a Linux (Ubuntu preferably) or macOS operating system. The reason for this is most of the libraries for deep learning are built to work best with a Linux/Unix operating system. All the setup instructions will be covered for these operating systems.

While installing Python, it is recommended to install version 3.6 rather than the latest 3.7 or beyond. This is to avoid unpredicted conflicts between TensorFlow and Python due to...
