Hands-On Deep Learning with Go

By: Gareth Seneque, Darrell Chua

Overview of this book

Go is an open source programming language designed by Google for handling large-scale projects efficiently. The Go ecosystem comprises some really powerful deep learning tools such as DQN and CUDA. With this book, you'll be able to use these tools to train and deploy scalable deep learning models from scratch. This deep learning book begins by introducing you to a variety of tools and libraries available in Go. It then takes you through building neural networks, including activation functions and the learning algorithms that make neural networks tick. In addition to this, you'll learn how to build advanced architectures such as autoencoders, restricted Boltzmann machines (RBMs), convolutional neural networks (CNNs), recurrent neural networks (RNNs), and more. You'll also understand how you can scale model deployments on the AWS cloud infrastructure for training and inference. By the end of this book, you'll have mastered the art of building, training, and deploying deep learning models in Go to solve real-world problems.

Object Recognition with Convolutional Neural Networks

Now it's time to get to some computer vision or image classification problems that are a little more general than our earlier MNIST handwriting example. A lot of the same principles apply, but we will be using some new types of operations to build Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs).

This chapter will cover the following topics:

  • Introduction to CNNs
  • Building an example CNN
  • Assessing the results and making improvements
