Overview of this book

Deep learning systems often struggle to meet performance demands in real-time and production environments. This book shows you how to build high-performance deep learning systems in C++, enabling efficient and scalable artificial intelligence (AI) in resource-constrained environments where performance matters. You’ll start by setting up a complete C++ deep learning environment and implementing core neural networks from scratch. As you progress, you’ll build advanced architectures, including Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs), Long Short-Term Memory Networks (LSTMs), Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), and Transformers, using C++, CUDA, and PyTorch’s C++ API. The book then focuses on model quantization and compression. It will guide you through the model deployment process in production with robust monitoring and explainability. You’ll also explore distributed training and techniques for real-time inference in performance-critical domains. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to design, optimize, and deploy deep learning systems in C++ that are production-ready, scalable, and efficient across multiple industries. *Email sign-up and proof of purchase required

Exploring deep learning training concepts

In this chapter we have used a couple of concepts like Activation functions and Optimization techniques without explicitly defining them. In this section, we will digress a little and formally define these two concepts. Learning these concepts and developing an intuitive understanding of the same will be crucial in your deep learning journey.

Activation functions

Throughout this chapter, we have used the ReLU function in our MLP implementations. However, the choice of activation function is far from arbitrary—it can significantly impact your network’s ability to learn and generalize. Activation functions are the mathematical gateways that introduce non-linearity into neural networks, transforming the weighted sum of inputs into meaningful outputs that enable networks to learn complex patterns and relationships in data.

The absence of activation functions would reduce any multi-layer network to a simple linear model...
