Overview of this book

Deep learning is rapidly becoming the most preferred way of solving data problems. This is thanks, in part, to its huge variety of mathematical algorithms and their ability to find patterns that are otherwise invisible to us. Deep Learning from the Basics begins with a fast-paced introduction to deep learning with Python, its definition, characteristics, and applications. You’ll learn how to use the Python interpreter and the script files in your applications, and utilize NumPy and Matplotlib in your deep learning models. As you progress through the book, you’ll discover backpropagation—an efficient way to calculate the gradients of weight parameters—and study multilayer perceptrons and their limitations, before, finally, implementing a three-layer neural network and calculating multidimensional arrays. By the end of the book, you’ll have the knowledge to apply the relevant technologies in deep learning.

Learning from Data

The essential characteristic of a neural network is its ability to learn from data. Training from data means that weight parameter values can be automatically determined. If you have to determine all the parameters manually, it is quite hard work. For example, for a sample perceptron, as shown in Chapter 2, Perceptrons, we determined the parameter values manually while looking at the truth table. There are as few as three parameters. However, in an actual neural network, the number of parameters can range between thousands and tens of thousands. For deep learning with more layers, the number of parameters may reach hundreds of millions. It is almost impossible to determine them manually. This chapter describes neural network training, or how to determine parameter values from data, and implements a model that learns handwritten digits from the MNIST dataset with Python.

Note

For a linearly separable problem, a perceptron can learn automatically from data. That...
