Deep Learning with Python (Website)

Collection of a variety of Deep Learning (DL) code examples, tutorial-style Jupyter notebooks, and projects.

Quite a few of the Jupyter notebooks are built on Google Colab and may employ special functions exclusive to Google Colab (for example uploading data or pulling data directly from a remote repo using standard Linux commands).

Here is the Github Repo.

Requirements

Python 3.6+
NumPy (pip install numpy)
Pandas (pip install pandas)
MatplotLib (pip install matplotlib)
Tensorflow (pip install tensorflow or pip install tensorflow-gpu)

Of course, to use a local GPU correctly, you need to do lot more work setting up proper GPU driver and CUDA installation.
If you are using Ubuntu 18.04, here is a guide.
If you are on Windows 10, here is a guide
It is also highly recommended to install GPU version in a separate virtual environment, so as to not mess up the default system install.

Keras (pip install keras)

NOTE: Most of the Jupyter notebooks in this repo are built on Google Colaboratory using Google GPU cluster and a virtual machine. Therefore, you may not need to install these packages on your local machine if you also want to use Google colab. You can directly launch the notebooks in your Google colab environment by clicking on the links provided in the notebooks (of course, that makes a copy of my notebook on to your Google drive).

For more information about using Google Colab for your deep learning work, check their FAQ here.

Utility modules

Utility module for example notebooks

I created a utility function file called DL_utils.py in the utils directory under Notebooks. We use functions from this module whenever possible in the Jupyter notebooks.

You can download the module (raw Python file) from here: DL-Utility-Module

General-purpose regression module (for tabular dataset)

I also implemented a general-purpose trainer module (NN_trainer.py) for regression task with tabular datasets. The idea is that you can simply read a dataset (e.g. a CSV file), choose the input and target variables, build a densely-connected neural net, train, and predict. The module gives you back a prediction function (trained) which can be used for any further prediction, analytics, or optimization task.

Check out the module here and an example notebook here.

Notebooks

Deep learning vs. linear model

We show a nonlinear function approximation task performed by linear model (polynomial degree) and a simple 1/2 hidden layer (densely connected) neural net to illustrate the difference and the capacity of deep neural nets to take advantage of larger datasets (Here is the Notebook).

Demo of a general-purpose regression module

We implemented a general-purpose trainer module for regression task with tabular datasets. The idea is that you can simply read a dataset (e.g. a CSV file), choose the input and target variables, build a densely-connected neural net, train, predict, and save the model for deployment. This the demo notebook for that module (Here is the Notebook).

Simple Conv Net

Using Keras `ImageDataGenerator` and other utilities

Horse or human image classification using Keras ImageDataGenerator and Google colaboratory platform. (Here is the Notebook)
Classification on the flowers dataset and the famous Caltech-101 dataset using fit_generator and flow_from_directory() method of the ImageDataGenerator. Illustrates how to streamline CNN model building from a single storage of image data using these utility methods. (Here is the Notebook)

Transfer learning

Simple illustration of transfer learning using CIFAR-10 dataset (Here is the Notebook)
Transfer learning with the famous Inception v3 model - building a classifier of pneumonia from chest X-ray images. (Here is the Notebook)

Activation maps

We illustrate how to show the activation maps of various layers in a deep CNN model with just a couple of lines of code using Keract library. (Here is the Notebook)

Adding simple Object-oriented Programming (OOP) principle to your deep learning workflow (Here is the Notebook).

Keras `Callbacks` using ResNet

ResNet on CIFAR-10 dataset, showing how to use Keras Callbacks classes like ModelCheckpoint, LearningRateScheduler, and ReduceLROnPlateau. You can also change a single parameter to generate ResNet of various depths. (Here is the Notebook).

Simple RNN

Time series prediction using simple RNN (a single RNN layer followed by a densely connected layer). We show that a complicated time-series signal is correctly predicted by a simple RNN even when trained with only 25% of the data. (Here is the Notebook)

Text generation using LSTM

Automatic text generation (based on simple character vectors) using LSTM network. Play with character sequence length, LSTM architecture, and hyperparameters to generate synthetic texts based on a particular author's style! (Here is the Notebook).
