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.

Summary

In this chapter, we have seen examples of the use of TensorFlow for two situations involving linear regression; where features are mapped to known labels that have continuous values, thus allowing predictions on unseen features to be made. We have also seen an example of logistic regression, better described as classification, where features are mapped to categorical labels, again allowing predictions on unseen features to be made. Finally, we looked at the KNN algorithm for classification.

We will now move on, in Chapter 5, Unsupervised Learning Using TensorFlow 2, to unsupervised learning, where there is no initial mapping between features and labels, and the task of TensorFlow is to discover relationships between the features.
