Overview of this book

This book will take you from the basics of neural networks to advanced implementations of architectures using a recipe-based approach. We will learn about how neural networks work and the impact of various hyper parameters on a network's accuracy along with leveraging neural networks for structured and unstructured data. Later, we will learn how to classify and detect objects in images. We will also learn to use transfer learning for multiple applications, including a self-driving car using Convolutional Neural Networks. We will generate images while leveraging GANs and also by performing image encoding. Additionally, we will perform text analysis using word vector based techniques. Later, we will use Recurrent Neural Networks and LSTM to implement chatbot and Machine Translation systems. Finally, you will learn about transcribing images, audio, and generating captions and also use Deep Q-learning to build an agent that plays Space Invaders game. By the end of this book, you will have developed the skills to choose and customize multiple neural network architectures for various deep learning problems you might encounter.

Introduction

In the previous chapters, we learned about building a neural network and the various parameters that need to be tweaked to ensure that the model built generalizes well. Additionally, we learned about how neural networks can be leveraged to perform image analysis using MNIST data.

In this chapter, we will learn how neural networks can be used for prediction on top of the following:

  • Structured dataset
    • Categorical output prediction
    • Continuous output prediction
  • Text analysis
  • Audio analysis

Additionally, we will also be learning about the following:

  • Implementing a custom loss function
  • Assigning higher weights for certain classes of output over others
  • Assigning higher weights for certain rows of a dataset over others
  • Leveraging a functional API to integrate multiple sources of data

We will learn about all the preceding by going through the following recipes:

  • Predicting...
