Hands-On Python Deep Learning for the Web

By: Anubhav Singh, Sayak Paul

Overview of this book

When used effectively, deep learning techniques can help you develop intelligent web apps. In this book, you'll cover the latest tools and technological practices that are being used to implement deep learning in web development using Python. Starting with the fundamentals of machine learning, you'll focus on DL and the basics of neural networks, including common variants such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs). You'll learn how to integrate them into websites with the frontends of different standard web tech stacks. The book then helps you gain practical experience of developing a deep learning-enabled web app using Python libraries such as Django and Flask by creating RESTful APIs for custom models. Later, you'll explore how to set up a cloud environment for deep learning-based web deployments on Google Cloud and Amazon Web Services (AWS). Next, you'll learn how to use Microsoft's intelligent Emotion API, which can detect a person's emotions through a picture of their face. You'll also get to grips with deploying real-world websites, in addition to learning how to secure websites using reCAPTCHA and Cloudflare. Finally, you'll use NLP to integrate a voice UX through Dialogflow on your web pages. By the end of this book, you'll have learned how to deploy intelligent web apps and websites with the help of effective tools and practices.

Securing Web Apps with Deep Learning

Security is of the utmost importance to any website—and all software, in general. These days, security threats are evolving with the rise of available computing power and developments in the field of technology. So, it is important that websites employ the best possible measures of security to keep their data and user information secure. Websites with online commercial activities are always at high risk and it is very common for them to face security attacks that have not been seen before. New attacks are particularly difficult for rule-based security systems to identify and stop; so, you can look at the options offered by deep learning-powered security systems, which can effectively replace rule-based systems and are also capable of correctly identifying and blocking new threats.
