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.

Exploring the CNN architecture families

Now, instead of going through the history of CNN through the years, let’s look at a list of the different handpicked model architecture families. These architecture families are selectively chosen to be sufficiently different and diverse from each other. One thing to note is that neural networks are advancing at an astounding pace. With that in mind, the architecture families that will be introduced here are ensured to be relevant today. Additionally, only the most important information you need to know about the architecture family will be presented, simplifying the many pages of research papers in concise but sufficient detail.

Another thing to note before diving into this topic is that the metric performance on a dataset will often be the main comparison method among different architectures, so be aware that the metric performance of a model is achieved by the collective contribution of the training method and the architecture.
