Overview of this book

Advanced Deep Learning with TensorFlow 2 and Keras, Second Edition is a completely updated edition of the bestselling guide to the advanced deep learning techniques available today. Revised for TensorFlow 2.x, this edition introduces you to the practical side of deep learning with new chapters on unsupervised learning using mutual information, object detection (SSD), and semantic segmentation (FCN and PSPNet), further allowing you to create your own cutting-edge AI projects. Using Keras as an open-source deep learning library, the book features hands-on projects that show you how to create more effective AI with the most up-to-date techniques. Starting with an overview of multi-layer perceptrons (MLPs), convolutional neural networks (CNNs), and recurrent neural networks (RNNs), the book then introduces more cutting-edge techniques as you explore deep neural network architectures, including ResNet and DenseNet, and how to create autoencoders. You will then learn about GANs, and how they can unlock new levels of AI performance. Next, you’ll discover how a variational autoencoder (VAE) is implemented, and how GANs and VAEs have the generative power to synthesize data that can be extremely convincing to humans. You'll also learn to implement DRL such as Deep Q-Learning and Policy Gradient Methods, which are critical to many modern results in AI.

6. Conclusion

In this chapter, the concept of segmentation was discussed. We learned that there are different categories of segmentation. Each has its own target application. This chapter focused on the network design, implementation, and validation of semantic segmentation.

Our semantic segmentation network was inspired by FCN, which has been the basis of many modern-day, state-of-the-art segmentation algorithms, such as Mask-R-CNN [5]. Our network was further enhanced by ideas from PSPNet, which won first place in the ImageNet 2016 parsing challenge.

Using the VIA labeling tool, a new dataset label for semantic segmentation was generated using the same set of images employed in Chapter 11, Object Detection. The segmentation mask labels all pixels belonging to the same object class.

Our semantic segmentation network was trained and validated using mean IoU and average pixel accuracy metrics. The performance on the test dataset shows that it can effectively classify...
