Overview of this book

KNIME Analytics Platform is an open source software used to create and design data science workflows. This book is a comprehensive guide to the KNIME GUI and KNIME deep learning integration, helping you build neural network models without writing any code. It’ll guide you in building simple and complex neural networks through practical and creative solutions for solving real-world data problems. Starting with an introduction to KNIME Analytics Platform, you’ll get an overview of simple feed-forward networks for solving simple classification problems on relatively small datasets. You’ll then move on to build, train, test, and deploy more complex networks, such as autoencoders, recurrent neural networks (RNNs), long short-term memory (LSTM), and convolutional neural networks (CNNs). In each chapter, depending on the network and use case, you’ll learn how to prepare data, encode incoming data, and apply best practices. By the end of this book, you’ll have learned how to design a variety of different neural architectures and will be able to train, test, and deploy the final network.

To get the most out of this book

KNIME Analytics Platform is a very easy-to-use tool. No previous coding knowledge is necessary.

Some previous math knowledge, however, is necessary to deal with the data transformations and understand the training algorithms.

KNIME Analytics Platform is open source and can be downloaded, installed, and used for free. Download it from https://www.knime.com/downloads.

KNIME Server is only needed in Chapter 11, Best Practices and Other Deployment Options, to run the trained network within a REST service or a web application. KNIME Server is not open source and cannot be used for free but requires a yearly license. For a test license, please fill in the contact form at https://www.knime.com/contact.
