Machine Learning Using TensorFlow Cookbook

By: Luca Massaron, Alexia Audevart, Konrad Banachewicz

Overview of this book

The independent recipes in Machine Learning Using TensorFlow Cookbook will teach you how to perform complex data computations and gain valuable insights into your data. Dive into recipes on training models, model evaluation, sentiment analysis, regression analysis, artificial neural networks, and deep learning - each using Google’s machine learning library, TensorFlow. This cookbook covers the fundamentals of the TensorFlow library, including variables, matrices, and various data sources. You’ll discover real-world implementations of Keras and TensorFlow and learn how to use estimators to train linear models and boosted trees, both for classification and regression. Explore the practical applications of a variety of deep learning architectures, such as recurrent neural networks and Transformers, and see how they can be used to solve computer vision and natural language processing (NLP) problems. With the help of this book, you will be proficient in using TensorFlow, understand deep learning from the basics, and be able to implement machine learning algorithms in real-world scenarios.

Implementing a one-layer neural network

We have all of the tools needed to implement a neural network that operates on real data, so in this section, we will create a neural network with one layer that operates on the Iris dataset.

Getting ready

In this section, we will implement a neural network with one hidden layer. It will be important to understand that a fully connected neural network is based mostly on matrix multiplication. As such, it is important that the dimensions of the data and matrix are lined up correctly.

Since this is a regression problem, we will use mean squared error (MSE) as the loss function.

How to do it...

We proceed with the recipe as follows: 

  1. To create the computational graph, we'll start by loading the following necessary libraries:
    import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
    import numpy as np
    import tensorflow as tf
    from sklearn import datasets 
    
  2. Now we'll load the Iris data and...
