The Deep Learning with PyTorch Workshop

By: Hyatt Saleh

Overview of this book

Want to get to grips with one of the most popular machine learning libraries for deep learning? The Deep Learning with PyTorch Workshop will help you do just that, jumpstarting your knowledge of using PyTorch for deep learning even if you’re starting from scratch. It’s no surprise that deep learning’s popularity has risen steeply in the past few years, thanks to intelligent applications such as self-driving vehicles, chatbots, and voice-activated assistants that are making our lives easier. This book will take you inside the world of deep learning, where you’ll use PyTorch to understand the complexity of neural network architectures. The Deep Learning with PyTorch Workshop starts with an introduction to deep learning and its applications. You’ll explore the syntax of PyTorch and learn how to define a network architecture and train a model. Next, you’ll learn about three main neural network architectures - convolutional, artificial, and recurrent - and even solve real-world data problems using these networks. Later chapters will show you how to create a style transfer model to develop a new image from two images, before finally taking you through how RNNs store memory to solve key data issues. By the end of this book, you’ll have mastered the essential concepts, tools, and libraries of PyTorch to develop your own deep neural networks and intelligent apps.

Deploying Your Model

By now, you have learned and put into practice the key concepts and tips for building exceptional deep learning models for regular regression and classification problems. In real life, models are not just built for learning purposes. On the contrary, when training models for purposes other than research, the main idea is to be able to reuse them in the future to perform predictions over new data that, although the model was not trained on, the model should perform similarly well with.

In a small organization, the ability to serialize and deserialize models suffices. However, when models are to be used by large corporations, by users, or to alter a massively important and large task, it is a better practice to convert the model into a format that can be used in most production environments (such as APIs, websites, and online and offline applications).

In this section, we will learn how to save and load models, as well as how to use PyTorch's most recent...
