Inside Deep Learning (1 ed)

Description

Inside Deep Learning: Math, Algorithms, Models

Journey through the theory and practice of modern deep learning, and apply innovative techniques to solve everyday data problems.

In Inside Deep Learning, you will learn how to:

• Implement deep learning with PyTorch
• Select the right deep learning components
• Train and evaluate a deep learning model
• Fine tune deep learning models to maximize performance
• Understand deep learning terminology
• Adapt existing PyTorch code to solve new problems

Inside Deep Learning is an accessible guide to implementing deep learning with the PyTorch framework. It demystifies complex deep learning concepts and teaches you to understand the vocabulary of deep learning so you can keep pace in a rapidly evolving field. No detail is skipped—you’ll dive into math, theory, and practical applications. Everything is clearly explained in plain English.

About the technology

Deep learning doesn’t have to be a black box! Knowing how your models and algorithms actually work gives you greater control over your results. And you don’t have to be a mathematics expert or a senior data scientist to grasp what’s going on inside a deep learning system. This book gives you the practical insight you need to understand and explain your work with confidence.

About the book

Inside Deep Learning illuminates the inner workings of deep learning algorithms in a way that even machine learning novices can understand. You’ll explore deep learning concepts and tools through plain language explanations, annotated code, and dozens of instantly useful PyTorch examples. Each type of neural network is clearly presented without complex math, and every solution in this book can run using readily available GPU hardware!
