Overview of this book

Deep learning enables previously unattainable feats in automation, but extracting real-world business value from it is a daunting task. This book will teach you how to build complex deep learning models and gain intuition for structuring your data to accomplish your deep learning objectives. This deep learning book explores every aspect of the deep learning life cycle, from planning and data preparation to model deployment and governance, using real-world scenarios that will take you through creating, deploying, and managing advanced solutions. You’ll also learn how to work with image, audio, text, and video data using deep learning architectures, as well as optimize and evaluate your deep learning models objectively to address issues such as bias, fairness, adversarial attacks, and model transparency. As you progress, you’ll harness the power of AI platforms to streamline the deep learning life cycle and leverage Python libraries and frameworks such as PyTorch, ONNX, Catalyst, MLFlow, Captum, Nvidia Triton, Prometheus, and Grafana to execute efficient deep learning architectures, optimize model performance, and streamline the deployment processes. You’ll also discover the transformative potential of large language models (LLMs) for a wide array of applications. By the end of this book, you'll have mastered deep learning techniques to unlock its full potential for your endeavors.

Understanding the source of AI bias

AI bias can happen at any point in the deep learning life cycle. Let’s go through bias at those stages one by one:

  • Planning: During the planning stage of the machine learning life cycle, biases can emerge as decisions are made regarding project objectives, data collection methods, and model design. Bias may arise from subjective choices, assumptions, or the use of unrepresentative data sources. Project planners need to maintain a critical perspective, actively consider potential biases, engage diverse perspectives, and prioritize fairness and ethical considerations.
  • Data preparation: This stage involves the following phases:
    • Data collection: During the data collection phase, bias can creep in if the collected data fails to represent the target population accurately. Several factors can contribute to this bias, including sampling bias, selection bias, or the underrepresentation of specific groups. These issues can lead to the creation...
