Overview of this book

TensorFlow is one of the most popular machine learning frameworks in Python. With this book, you will improve your knowledge of some of the latest TensorFlow features and will be able to perform supervised and unsupervised machine learning and also train neural networks. After giving you an overview of what's new in TensorFlow 2.0 Alpha, the book moves on to setting up your machine learning environment using the TensorFlow library. You will perform popular supervised machine learning tasks using techniques such as linear regression, logistic regression, and clustering. You will get familiar with unsupervised learning for autoencoder applications. The book will also show you how to train effective neural networks using straightforward examples in a variety of different domains. By the end of the book, you will have been exposed to a large variety of machine learning and neural network TensorFlow techniques.

Introducing TensorFlow 2

TensorFlow began its life in 2011 as DisBelief, an internal, closed source project at Google. DisBelief was a machine learning system that employed deep learning neural networks. This system morphed into TensorFlow, which was released to the developer community under an Apache 2.0 open source license, on November 9, 2015. Version 1.0.0 made its appearance on February 11, 2017. There have been a number of point releases since then that have incorporated a wealth of new features.

At the time of writing this book, the most recent version is TensorFlow 2.0.0 alpha release, which was announced at the TensorFlow Dev Summit on March 6, 2019.

TensorFlow takes its name from, well, tensors. A tensor is a generalization of vectors and matrices to possibly higher dimensions. The rank of a tensor is the number of indices it takes to uniquely specify each element of...
