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.

Detecting and Localizing Objects in Images

In the chapters on building a deep convolutional neural network and transfer learning, we have learned about detecting the class that an image belongs to using deep CNN and also by leveraging transfer learning.

While object classification works, in the real world, we will also be encountering a scenario where we would have to locate the object within an image.

For example, in the case of a self-driving car, we would not only have to detect that a pedestrian is in the view point of a car, but also be able to detect how far the pedestrian is located away from the car so that an appropriate action can then be taken.

In this chapter, we will be discussing the various techniques of detecting objects in an image. The case studies we will be covering in this chapter are as follows:

  • Creating the training dataset of bounding box
  • Generating region...
