Python Deep Learning - Third Edition - Vasilev, Ivan

Résumé :
Master effective navigation of neural networks, including convolutions and transformers, to tackle computer vision and NLP tasks using PythonKey FeaturesUnderstand the theory, mathematical foundations and the structure of deep neural networks Become familiar with transformers, large language models, and convolutional networks Learn how to apply them on various computer vision and natural language processing problems Purchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free PDF eBook Book Description The field of deep learning has developed rapidly in the past years and today covers broad range of applications. This makes it challenging to navigate and hard to understand without solid foundations. This book will guide you from the basics of neural networks to the state-of-the-art large language models in use today. The first part of the book introduces the main machine learning concepts and paradigms. It covers the mathematical foundations, the structure, and the training algorithms of neural networks and dives into the essence of deep learning. The second part of the book introduces convolutional networks for computer vision. We'll learn how to solve image classification, object detection, instance segmentation, and image generation tasks. The third part focuses on the attention mechanism and transformers - the core network architecture of large language models. We'll discuss new types of advanced tasks, they can solve, such as chat bots and text-to-image generation. By the end of this book, you'll have a thorough understanding of the inner workings of deep neural networks. You'll have the ability to develop new models or adapt existing ones to solve your tasks. You'll also have sufficient understanding to continue your research and stay up to date with the latest advancements in the field.What you will learnEstablish theoretical foundations of deep neural networks Understand convolutional networks and apply them in computer vision applications Become well versed with natural language processing and recurrent networks Explore the attention mechanism and transformers Apply transformers and large language models for natural language and computer vision Implement coding examples with PyTorch, Keras, and Hugging Face Transformers Use MLOps to develop and deploy neural network models Who this book is for This book is for software developers/engineers, students, data scientists, data analysts, machine learning engineers, statisticians, and anyone interested in deep learning.

Biographie:
Ivan Vasilev started working on the first open source Java deep learning library with GPU support in 2013. The library was acquired by a German company, with whom he continued its development. He has also worked as a machine learning engineer and researcher in medical image classification and segmentation with deep neural networks. Since 2017, he has focused on financial machine learning. He co-founded an algorithmic trading company, where he's the lead engineer.He holds an MSc in artificial intelligence from Sofia University St. Kliment Ohridski and has written two previous books on the same topic.
