Book Description

TensorFlow is one of the most popular frameworks used for machine learning and, more recently, deep learning. It provides a fast and efficient framework for training different kinds of deep learning models, with very high accuracy. This book is your guide to master deep learning with TensorFlow with the help of 10 real-world projects.

TensorFlow Deep Learning Projects starts with setting up the right TensorFlow environment for deep learning. You'll learn how to train different types of deep learning models using TensorFlow, including Convolutional Neural Networks, Recurrent Neural Networks, LSTMs, and Generative Adversarial Networks. While doing this, you will build end-to-end deep learning solutions to tackle different real-world problems in image processing, recommendation systems, stock prediction, and building chatbots, to name a few. You will also develop systems that perform machine translation and use reinforcement learning techniques to play games.

By the end of this book, you will have mastered all the concepts of deep learning and their implementation with TensorFlow, and will be able to build and train your own deep learning models with TensorFlow confidently.

What you will learn

• Set up the TensorFlow environment for deep learning
• Construct your own ConvNets for effective image processing
• Use LSTMs for image caption generation
• Forecast stock prediction accurately with an LSTM architecture
• Learn what semantic matching is by detecting duplicate Quora questions
• Set up an AWS instance with TensorFlow to train GANs
• Train and set up a chatbot to understand and interpret human input
• Build an AI capable of playing a video game by itself -and win it!

Who this book is for:

This book is for data scientists, machine learning developers as well as deep learning practitioners, who want to build interesting deep learning projects that leverage the power of Tensorflow. Some understanding of machine learning and deep learning, and familiarity with the TensorFlow framework is all you need to get started with this book.
