eBook Description:

Deep Learning Illustrated: A Visual, Interactive Guide to Artificial Intelligence: Fully Practical, Insightful Guide to Modern Deep Learning

Deep learning is transforming software, facilitating powerful new artificial intelligence capabilities, and driving unprecedented algorithm performance. Deep Learning Illustrated: A Visual, Interactive Guide to Artificial Intelligence is uniquely intuitive and offers a complete introduction to the discipline’s techniques. Packed with full-color figures and easy-to-follow code, it sweeps away the complexity of building deep learning models, making the subject approachable and fun to learn.

World-class instructor and practitioner Jon Krohn-with visionary content from Grant Beyleveld and beautiful illustrations by Aglaé Bassens-presents straightforward analogies to explain what deep learning is, why it has become so popular, and how it relates to other machine learning approaches. Krohn has created a practical reference and tutorial for developers, data scientists, researchers, analysts, and students who want to start applying it. He illuminates theory with hands-on Python code in accompanying Jupyter notebooks. To help you progress quickly, he focuses on the versatile deep learning library Keras to nimbly construct efficient TensorFlow models; PyTorch, the leading alternative library, is also covered.

• Discover what makes deep learning systems unique, and the implications for practitioners
• Explore new tools that make deep learning models easier to build, use, and improve
• Master essential theory: artificial neurons, training, optimization, convolutional nets, recurrent nets, generative adversarial networks (GANs), deep reinforcement learning, and more
• Walk through building interactive deep learning applications, and move forward with your own artificial intelligence projects

You’ll gain a pragmatic understanding of all major deep learning approaches and their uses in applications ranging from machine vision and natural language processing to image generation and game-playing algorithms.
