Although we have already used some neural network algorithms, it's time to dig a bit deeper into how they work. This section demonstrates how to code a neural network from scratch. It might surprise you to see that the core code for a neural network can be written in fewer than 80 lines! The code for this chapter does just that using an interactive web application written in R. It should give you more of an intuitive understanding of neural networks. First we will look at the web application, then we will delve more deeply into the code for the neural network.

Overview of this book
Deep learning is a powerful subset of machine learning that is very successful in domains such as computer vision and natural language processing (NLP). This second edition of R Deep Learning Essentials will open the gates for you to enter the world of neural networks by building powerful deep learning models using the R ecosystem.
This book will introduce you to the basic principles of deep learning and teach you to build a neural network model from scratch. As you make your way through the book, you will explore deep learning libraries, such as Keras, MXNet, and TensorFlow, and create interesting deep learning models for a variety of tasks and problems, including structured data, computer vision, text data, anomaly detection, and recommendation systems. You’ll cover advanced topics, such as generative adversarial networks (GANs), transfer learning, and large-scale deep learning in the cloud. In the concluding chapters, you will learn about the theoretical concepts of deep learning projects, such as model optimization, overfitting, and data augmentation, together with other advanced topics.
By the end of this book, you will be fully prepared and able to implement deep learning concepts in your research work or projects.
