TensorFlow Machine Learning Cookbook - Second Edition

By: Nick McClure

Overview of this book

TensorFlow is an open source software library for Machine Intelligence. The independent recipes in this book will teach you how to use TensorFlow for complex data computations and allow you to dig deeper and gain more insights into your data than ever before. With the help of this book, you will work with recipes for training models, model evaluation, sentiment analysis, regression analysis, clustering analysis, artificial neural networks, and more. You will explore RNNs, CNNs, GANs, reinforcement learning, and capsule networks, each using Google's machine learning library, TensorFlow. Through real-world examples, you will get hands-on experience with linear regression techniques with TensorFlow. Once you are familiar and comfortable with the TensorFlow ecosystem, you will be shown how to take it to production. By the end of the book, you will be proficient in the field of machine intelligence using TensorFlow. You will also have good insight into deep learning and be capable of implementing machine learning algorithms in real-world scenarios.

Implementing operational gates

One of the most fundamental concepts of neural networks is an operating as an operational gate. In this section, we will start with a multiplication operation as a gate, before moving on to consider nested gate operations.

Getting ready

The first operational gate we will implement is . To optimize this gate, we declare the a input as a variable and the x input as a placeholder. This means that TensorFlow will try to change the a value and not the x value. We will create the loss function as the difference between the output and the target value, which is 50.

The second, nested operational gate will be . Again, we will declare a and b as variables and x as a place holder. We optimize the output...
