Neural Network Foundations with TF
In this chapter, we learn the basics of TensorFlow, an open-source library developed by Google for machine learning and deep learning. In addition, we introduce the basics of neural networks and deep learning, two areas of machine learning that have had incredible Cambrian growth during the last few years. The idea behind this chapter is to provide all the tools needed to do basic but fully hands-on deep learning.
We will learn:
- What TensorFlow and Keras are
- An introduction to neural networks
- What the perceptron and multi-layer perceptron are
- A real example: recognizing handwritten digits
