Overview of this book

Keras 2.x Projects explains how to leverage the power of Keras to build and train state-of-the-art deep learning models through a series of practical projects that look at a range of real-world application areas. To begin with, you will quickly set up a deep learning environment by installing the Keras library. Through each of the projects, you will explore and learn the advanced concepts of deep learning and will learn how to compute and run your deep learning models using the advanced offerings of Keras. You will train fully-connected multilayer networks, convolutional neural networks, recurrent neural networks, autoencoders and generative adversarial networks using real-world training datasets. The projects you will undertake are all based on real-world scenarios of all complexity levels, covering topics such as language recognition, stock volatility, energy consumption prediction, faster object classification for self-driving vehicles, and more. By the end of this book, you will be well versed with deep learning and its implementation with Keras. You will have all the knowledge you need to train your own deep learning models to solve different kinds of problems.

Neural networks for regression using Keras

The real estate market is a market where the sales and purchase between sellers and buyers refer to the exchange of real estate of any kind, such as housing, land, commercial premises, and so on. Real estate prices depend on a series of factors that make the asset more palatable for potential buyers.

These factors include the socioeconomic conditions, environmental conditions, and educational facilities of the area in which the property is located. Analyzing how these factors affect the cost of real estate can be a valuable tool for technicians in the sector in order to predict the market trends, depending on the changes that are occurring.

To do this, we will run a neural network regression for the Boston dataset; the median values of owner-occupied homes are predicted for the test data. The dataset describes 13 numerical properties...
