Hands-On Neural Networks with Keras

By: Niloy Purkait

Overview of this book

Neural networks are used to solve a wide range of problems in different areas of AI and deep learning. Hands-On Neural Networks with Keras will start with teaching you about the core concepts of neural networks. You will delve into combining different neural network models and work with real-world use cases, including computer vision, natural language understanding, synthetic data generation, and many more. Moving on, you will become well versed with convolutional neural networks (CNNs), recurrent neural networks (RNNs), long short-term memory (LSTM) networks, autoencoders, and generative adversarial networks (GANs) using real-world training datasets. We will examine how to use CNNs for image recognition, how to use reinforcement learning agents, and many more. We will dive into the specific architectures of various networks and then implement each of them in a hands-on manner using industry-grade frameworks. By the end of this book, you will be highly familiar with all prominent deep learning models and frameworks, and the options you have when applying deep learning to real-world scenarios and embedding artificial intelligence as the core fabric of your organization.

The internet movie reviews dataset

The simplest form of sentiment analysis task deals with categorizing whether a piece of text represents a positive or negative opinion. This is often referred to as a polar or binary sentiment classification task, where 0 refers to a negative sentiment and 1 refers to a positive sentiment. We can, of course, have more complex sentiment models (perhaps using the big-five personality metrics we saw in Chapter 1, Overview of Neural Networks), but for the time being, we will concentrate on this simple yet conceptually loaded binary example. The example in question refers to classifying movie reviews from the Internet Movie Database or IMDB.

The IMDB dataset consists of 50,000 binary reviews, which are evenly split into positive and negative opinions. Each review consists of a list of integers, where each integer represents a word in that review....
