Keras 2.x Projects

By: Giuseppe Ciaburro

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.

Heart Disease Classification with Neural Networks

Classification algorithms help us to automatically learn how to make accurate predictions based on our observations. Starting from a set of predefined class labels, the classifier gives each piece of data a class label in accordance with the training model. Classification is somewhat similar to regression, which we studied in Chapter 2, Modeling Real Estate Using Regression Analysis. As well as regression, classification uses known labels of a training dataset to predict the response of the new test dataset. The main difference between regression and classification is that regression is used to predict continuous values, whereas classification works with categorical data.

For example, regression can be used to predict the future price of housing based on prices over the last 10 years. However, we should use the classification method...
