Deep Learning on Windows

Book excerpt: Build deep learning and computer vision systems using Python, TensorFlow, Keras, OpenCV, and more, right within the familiar environment of Microsoft Windows. The book starts with an introduction to tools for deep learning and computer vision tasks followed by instructions to install, configure, and troubleshoot them. Here, you will learn how Python can help you build deep learning models on Windows. Moving forward, you will build a deep learning model and understand the internal workings of a convolutional neural network on Windows. Further, you will go through different ways to visualize the internal workings of deep learning models along with an understanding of transfer learning where you will learn how to build a model architecture and use data augmentations. Next, you will manage and train deep learning models on Windows before deploying your application as a web application. You’ll also do some basic image processing and work with computer vision options that will help you build various applications with deep learning. Finally, you will use generative adversarial networks along with reinforcement learning. After reading Deep Learning on Windows, you will be able to design deep learning models and web applications on the Windows operating system. What You Will Learn Get deep learning tools working on Microsoft Windows Understand model visualization techniques, such as the built-in plot_model function of Keras and third-party visualization tools Build a robust training script Convert your deep learning model into a web application Generate handwritten digits with DCGAN (deep convolutional generative adversarial network) Understand the basics of reinforcement learning Who This Book Is For AI developers and enthusiasts wanting to work on the Windows platform.
