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.

1. Introduction to Deep Learning and PyTorch

Activity 1.01: Creating a Single-Layer Neural Network

Solution

  1. Import the required libraries, including pandas, for importing a CSV file:
    import pandas as pd
    import torch
    import torch.nn as nn
    import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
  2. Read the CSV file containing the dataset:
    data = pd.read_csv("SomervilleHappinessSurvey2015.csv")
  3. Separate the input features from the target. Note that the target is located in the first column of the CSV file. Convert the values into tensors, making sure the values are converted into floats:
    x = torch.tensor(data.iloc[:,1:].values).float()
    y = torch.tensor(data.iloc[:,:1].values).float()
  4. Define the architecture of the model and store it in a variable named model. Remember to create a single-layer model:
    model = nn.Sequential(nn.Linear(6, 1),
                          nn.Sigmoid())
