Hands-On Deep Learning with Apache Spark

By: Iozzia

Overview of this book

Deep learning is a subset of machine learning where datasets with several layers of complexity can be processed. Hands-On Deep Learning with Apache Spark addresses the sheer complexity of technical and analytical parts and the speed at which deep learning solutions can be implemented on Apache Spark. The book starts with the fundamentals of Apache Spark and deep learning. You will set up Spark for deep learning, learn principles of distributed modeling, and understand different types of neural nets. You will then implement deep learning models, such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs), recurrent neural networks (RNNs), and long short-term memory (LSTM) on Spark. As you progress through the book, you will gain hands-on experience of what it takes to understand the complex datasets you are dealing with. During the course of this book, you will use popular deep learning frameworks, such as TensorFlow, Deeplearning4j, and Keras to train your distributed models. By the end of this book, you'll have gained experience with the implementation of your models on a variety of use cases.

To get the most out of this book

A basic knowledge of the Scala programming language is required in order to understand the hands-on topics throughout this book. Basic knowledge of machine learning will also be helpful for a better understanding of the deep learning theory. Preliminary knowledge or experience with Apache Spark isn't necessary, as the first chapter covers all of the topics regarding the Spark ecosystem. A good knowledge of Python is required only in order to understand the Keras and TensorFlow models that can be imported in DL4J.

In order to build and execute the code examples in this book, Scala 2.11.x, Java 8, Apache Maven, and your IDE of choice are required.
