Deep Learning with TensorFlow. Explore neural networks and build intelligent systems with Python - Second Edition

Giancarlo Zaccone, Md. Rezaul Karim

Deep learning is a branch of machine learning algorithms based on learning multiple levels of abstraction. Neural networks, which are at the core of deep learning, are being used in predictive analytics, computer vision, natural language processing, time series forecasting, and to perform a myriad of other complex tasks.This book is conceived for developers, data analysts, machine learning practitioners and deep learning enthusiasts who want to build powerful, robust, and accurate predictive models with the power of TensorFlow, combined with other open source Python libraries. Throughout the book, you’ll learn how to develop deep learning applications for machine learning systems using Feedforward Neural Networks, Convolutional Neural Networks, Recurrent Neural Networks, Autoencoders, and Factorization Machines. Discover how to attain deep learning programming on GPU in a distributed way.You'll come away with an in-depth knowledge of machine learning techniques and the skills to apply them to real-world projects.

Deep Learning with TensorFlow. Explore neural networks with Python

Giancarlo Zaccone, Md. Rezaul Karim, Ahmed Menshawy

Deep learning is the step that comes after machine learning, and has more advancedimplementations. Machine learning is not just for academics anymore, but is becoming a mainstream practice through wide adoption, and deep learning has taken the front seat. As a data scientist, if you want to explore data abstraction layers, this book will be your guide. This book shows how this can be exploited in the real world with complex raw data using TensorFlow 1.x.Throughout the book, you’ll learn how to implement deep learning algorithms for machine learning systems and integrate them into your product offerings, includingsearch, image recognition, and language processing. Additionally, you’ll learn howto analyze and improve the performance of deep learning models. This can be done bycomparing algorithms against benchmarks, along with machine intelligence, to learnfrom the information and determine ideal behaviors within a specific context.After finishing the book, you will be familiar with machine learning techniques, in particular the use of TensorFlow for deep learning, and will be ready to apply your knowledge to research or commercial projects.

Python Parallel Programming Cookbook. Master efficient parallel programming to build powerful applications using Python

Giancarlo Zaccone

This book will teach you parallel programming techniques using examples in Python and will help you explore the many ways in which you can write code that allows more than one process to happen at once. Starting with introducing you to the world of parallel computing, it moves on to cover the fundamentals in Python. This is followed by exploring the thread-based parallelism model using the Python threading module by synchronizing threads and using locks, mutex, semaphores queues, GIL, and the thread pool. Next you will be taught about process-based parallelism where you will synchronize processes using message passing along with learning about the performance of MPI Python Modules. You will then go on to learn the asynchronous parallel programming model using the Python asyncio module along with handling exceptions. Moving on, you will discover distributed computing with Python, and learn how to install a broker, use Celery Python Module, and create a worker. You will understand anche Pycsp, the Scoop framework, and disk modules in Python. Further on, you will learnGPU programming withPython using the PyCUDA module along with evaluating performance limitations.
