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.

Breaking down the multitask paradigm in supervised deep learning

Multitask is a paradigm that covers a wide spectrum of tasks that involves the execution of ML models on multiple problems coupled with their respective datasets to achieve a goal. This paradigm is usually built based on two reasons:

  • To achieve better predictive performance and generalization.
  • To break down complicated goals into smaller tasks that are directly solvable using separate ML models. This reiterates the point made in the previous topic.

Let’s dive into four multitask techniques, starting with multitask pipelines.

Multitask pipelines

This variation of multitask systems revolves around realizing solutions that can’t be directly solved by using a single ML model. Breaking down highly complicated tasks into smaller tasks can allow solutions to be made with multiple ML models handling different smaller tasks. These tasks can be sequential or parallel in their paths and generally...
