Overview of this book

TensorFlow has transformed the way machine learning is perceived. TensorFlow Machine Learning Projects teaches you how to exploit the benefits—simplicity, efficiency, and flexibility—of using TensorFlow in various real-world projects. With the help of this book, you’ll not only learn how to build advanced projects using different datasets but also be able to tackle common challenges using a range of libraries from the TensorFlow ecosystem. To start with, you’ll get to grips with using TensorFlow for machine learning projects; you’ll explore a wide range of projects using TensorForest and TensorBoard for detecting exoplanets, TensorFlow.js for sentiment analysis, and TensorFlow Lite for digit classification. As you make your way through the book, you’ll build projects in various real-world domains, incorporating natural language processing (NLP), the Gaussian process, autoencoders, recommender systems, and Bayesian neural networks, along with trending areas such as Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), capsule networks, and reinforcement learning. You’ll learn how to use the TensorFlow on Spark API and GPU-accelerated computing with TensorFlow to detect objects, followed by how to train and develop a recurrent neural network (RNN) model to generate book scripts. By the end of this book, you’ll have gained the required expertise to build full-fledged machine learning projects at work.

Summary


In this chapter, we learned about how LSTMs can be used to generate book scripts.

We began by looking at the basics of RNNs and its popular variant, commonly known as LSTMs. We learned that RNNs are hugely successful in predicting datasets that involve sequences such as time series, next word prediction in natural language processing tasks, and so on. We also looked at the advantages and disadvantages of using LSTMs.

This chapter then helped us understand how to pre-process text data and prepare it so that we can feed it into LSTMs. We also looked at the model's structure for training. Next, we looked at how to train the neural networks by creating batches of data.

Finally, we understood how to generate book script using the TensorFlow model we trained. Although the script that was generated doesn't make complete sense, it was amazing to observe the neural network generate a book's sentences. We then saved the generated book script in a text file for future reference.
