Overview of this book

With information on the web exponentially increasing, it has become more difficult than ever to navigate through everything to find reliable content that will help you get started with deep learning. This book is designed to help you if you're a beginner looking to work on deep learning and build deep learning models from scratch, and you already have the basic mathematical and programming knowledge required to get started. The book begins with a basic overview of machine learning, guiding you through setting up popular Python frameworks. You will also understand how to prepare data by cleaning and preprocessing it for deep learning, and gradually go on to explore neural networks. A dedicated section will give you insights into the working of neural networks by helping you get hands-on with training single and multiple layers of neurons. Later, you will cover popular neural network architectures such as CNNs, RNNs, AEs, VAEs, and GANs with the help of simple examples, and learn how to build models from scratch. At the end of each chapter, you will find a question and answer section to help you test what you've learned through the course of the book. By the end of this book, you'll be well-versed with deep learning concepts and have the knowledge you need to use specific algorithms with various tools for different tasks.

Thinking about the ethical implications of generative models

Generative models are one of the most exciting topics in deep learning nowadays. But with great power comes great responsibility. We can use the power of generative models for many good things, such as the following:

  • Augmenting your dataset to make it more complete
  • Training your model with unseen data to make it more stable
  • Finding adversarial examples to re-train your model and make it more robust
  • Creating new images of things that look like other things, such as images of art or vehicles
  • Creating new sequences of sounds that sound like other sounds, such as people speaking or birds singing
  • Generating new security codes for data encryption

We can go on as our imagination permits. What we must always remember is that these generative models, if not modeled properly, can lead to many problems, such as bias, causing trustworthiness issues on your models. It can be easy to use these models to generate a fake sequence of audio...
