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.

Restricted Boltzmann Machines and Autoencoders

When you are shopping online or surfing movies, you may wonder how the products you may also like or movies that may also interest you works. In this chapter, we will explain the algorithm behind the scene, called the restricted boltzmann machine (RBM). We will start with reviewing RBMs and their evolution path. We will then dig deeper into the logic behind them and implement RBMs in TensorFlow. We will also apply them to build a movie recommender. Beyond a shallow architecture, we will move on with a stacked version of RBMs called deep belief networks (DBNs) and use it to classify images, of course, with our implementation in TensorFlow from scratch.

RBMs find a latent representation of the input by attempting to reconstruct the input data. In this chapter, we will also discuss the autoencoders as another...
