Hands-On Neural Networks with Keras

By: Purkait

Overview of this book

Neural networks are used to solve a wide range of problems in different areas of AI and deep learning. Hands-On Neural Networks with Keras will start with teaching you about the core concepts of neural networks. You will delve into combining different neural network models and work with real-world use cases, including computer vision, natural language understanding, synthetic data generation, and many more. Moving on, you will become well versed with convolutional neural networks (CNNs), recurrent neural networks (RNNs), long short-term memory (LSTM) networks, autoencoders, and generative adversarial networks (GANs) using real-world training datasets. We will examine how to use CNNs for image recognition, how to use reinforcement learning agents, and many more. We will dive into the specific architectures of various networks and then implement each of them in a hands-on manner using industry-grade frameworks. By the end of this book, you will be highly familiar with all prominent deep learning models and frameworks, and the options you have when applying deep learning to real-world scenarios and embedding artificial intelligence as the core fabric of your organization.

Implementing dropout regularization in Keras

In Keras, adding a dropout layer is also very simple. All you are required to do is use the model.add() parameter again, and then specify a dropout layer (instead of the dense layer that we've been using so far) to be added. The Dropout parameter in Keras takes a float value that refers to the fraction of neurons whose predictions will be dropped. A very low dropout rate might not provide the robustness we are looking for, while a high dropout rate simply means we have a network prone to amnesia, incapable of remembering any useful representations. Once again, we strive for a dropout value that is just right; conventionally, the dropout rate is set between 0.2 and 0.4:

#Simple feed forward neural network
model=Sequential()

#feeds in the image composed of 28 28 a pixel matrix as one sequence of 784
model.add(Flatten(input_shape=(28...
