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 general hyperparameter search-based NAS

In ML, parameters typically refer to the weights and biases that a model learns during training, while hyperparameters are values that are set before training begins and influence how the model learns. Examples of hyperparameters include learning rate and batch size. General hyperparameter search optimization algorithms are a type of NAS method to automatically search for the best hyperparameters to use for constructing a given NN architecture. Let’s go through a few of the possible hyperparameters. In a multi-layer perceptron (MLP), hyperparameters could be the number of layers that control the depth of the MLP, the width of each of the layers, and the type of intermediate layer activation used. In a CNN, hyperparameters could be the filter size of the convolutional layer, the stride size of each of the layers, and the type of intermediate layer activation used after each convolutional layer.

For NN architectures, the...
