Overview of this book

Deep Learning with TensorFlow and Keras teaches you neural networks and deep learning techniques using TensorFlow (TF) and Keras. You'll learn how to write deep learning applications in the most powerful, popular, and scalable machine learning stack available. TensorFlow 2.x focuses on simplicity and ease of use, with updates like eager execution, intuitive higher-level APIs based on Keras, and flexible model building on any platform. This book uses the latest TF 2.0 features and libraries to present an overview of supervised and unsupervised machine learning models and provides a comprehensive analysis of deep learning and reinforcement learning models using practical examples for the cloud, mobile, and large production environments. This book also shows you how to create neural networks with TensorFlow, runs through popular algorithms (regression, convolutional neural networks (CNNs), transformers, generative adversarial networks (GANs), recurrent neural networks (RNNs), natural language processing (NLP), and graph neural networks (GNNs)), covers working example apps, and then dives into TF in production, TF mobile, and TensorFlow with AutoML.

Transformers

The transformer-based architectures have become almost universal in Natural Language Processing (NLP) (and beyond) when it comes to solving a wide variety of tasks, such as:

  • Neural machine translation
  • Text summarization
  • Text generation
  • Named entity recognition
  • Question answering
  • Text classification
  • Text similarity
  • Offensive message/profanity detection
  • Query understanding
  • Language modeling
  • Next-sentence prediction
  • Reading comprehension
  • Sentiment analysis
  • Paraphrasing

and a lot more.

In less than four years, when the Attention Is All You Need paper was published by Google Research in 2017, transformers managed to take the NLP community by storm, breaking any record achieved over the previous thirty years.

Transformer-based models use the so-called attention mechanisms that identify complex relationships between words in each input sequence, such as a sentence. Attention...
