Overview of this book

TensorFlow as a machine learning (ML) library has matured into a production-ready ecosystem. This beginner’s book uses practical examples to enable you to build and deploy TensorFlow models using optimal settings that ensure long-term support without having to worry about library deprecation or being left behind when it comes to bug fixes or workarounds. The book begins by showing you how to refine your TensorFlow project and set it up for enterprise-level deployment. You’ll then learn how to choose a future-proof version of TensorFlow. As you advance, you’ll find out how to build and deploy models in a robust and stable environment by following recommended practices made available in TensorFlow Enterprise. This book also teaches you how to manage your services better and enhance the performance and reliability of your artificial intelligence (AI) applications. You’ll discover how to use various enterprise-ready services to accelerate your ML and AI workflows on Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Finally, you’ll scale your ML models and handle heavy workloads across CPUs, GPUs, and Cloud TPUs. By the end of this TensorFlow book, you’ll have learned the patterns needed for TensorFlow Enterprise model development, data pipelines, training, and deployment.

Summary

In this chapter, we learned how to use Keras Tuner in Google Cloud AI Platform. We learned how to run the hyperparameter search, and we learned how to train a model with the best hyperparameter configuration. We have also seen that in a typical Keras style, integrating Keras Tuner into our existing model training workflow is very easy, especially with the simple treatment of hyperparameters as just arrays of a certain data type. This really opens up the choices for hyperparameters, and we do not need to implement the search logic or complicated conditional loops to keep track of the results.

In the next chapter, we will see the latest model optimization techniques that reduce the model size. As a result, our model can be leaner and more compact.
