TensorFlow Machine Learning Projects

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.

Creating a stock price prediction model


We will begin our project by processing the data present in the dataset:

  1. Create a dataframe with yearly time series for each stock. Represent each year's stock price by an individual column in that dataframe. Restrict number of rows in the dataframe to 252 which is roughly the number of trading days in a year. Also add the fiscal quarter associated with each row of data as a separate column.
def get_prices_by_year(self):
   df = self.modify_first_year_data()
   for i in range(1, len(self.num_years)):
       df = pd.concat([df, pd.DataFrame(self.get_year_data(year=self.num_years[i], normalized=True))], axis=1)
   df = df[:self.num_days]
   quarter_col = []
   num_days_in_quarter = self.num_days // 4
   for j in range(0, len(self.quarter_names)):
       quarter_col.extend([self.quarter_names[j]]*num_days_in_quarter)
   quarter_col = pd.DataFrame(quarter_col)
   df = pd.concat([df, quarter_col], axis=1)
   df.columns = self.num_years + ['Quarter']
   df...
