Advanced Deep Learning with R

By: Bharatendra Rai

Overview of this book

Deep learning is a branch of machine learning based on a set of algorithms that attempt to model high-level abstractions in data. Advanced Deep Learning with R will help you understand popular deep learning architectures and their variants in R, along with providing real-life examples for them. This deep learning book starts by covering the essential deep learning techniques and concepts for prediction and classification. You will learn about neural networks, deep learning architectures, and the fundamentals for implementing deep learning with R. The book will also take you through using important deep learning libraries such as Keras-R and TensorFlow-R to implement deep learning algorithms within applications. You will get up to speed with artificial neural networks, recurrent neural networks, convolutional neural networks, long short-term memory networks, and more using advanced examples. Later, you'll discover how to apply generative adversarial networks (GANs) to generate new images; autoencoder neural networks for image dimension reduction, image de-noising and image correction and transfer learning to prepare, define, train, and model a deep neural network. By the end of this book, you will be ready to implement your knowledge and newly acquired skills for applying deep learning algorithms in R through real-world examples.

TensorBoard for training performance visualization

For visualizing deep network training performance, TensorBoard is a useful tool that is available as part of the TensorFlow package. We will rerun the deep network model that we used in Chapter 2, Deep Neural Networks for Multi-Class Classification, where we used CTG data to develop a multi-class classification model for patients. For the code related to data processing, the model architecture, and compiling the model, you can refer to Chapter 2, Deep Neural Networks for Multi-Class Classification.

The following is the code for model_one from Chapter 2, Deep Neural Networks for Multi-Class Classification:

# Fitting model and TensorBoard
setwd("~/Desktop/")
model_one <- model %>% fit(training,
trainLabels,
epochs = 200,
batch_size = 32,
