Ten Must-Have Deep Learning Tools
IN THIS CHAPTER
Augmenting your development environment
Creating specialty environments
Performing business tasks
Accessing specialized hardware
Deep learning is a complex task, and if you try to write every last bit of code you need, you won’t ever have time to perform any analysis, which takes considerable time by itself. Consequently, you need tools that will help you get the job done with less effort. Throughout the book, you have seen a number of tools described and used. However, except for TensorFlow and Keras, the tools described previously are generally a good starting point, or something to consider to ease the learning curve. The tools in this chapter are special. They help you accomplish a variety of tasks with professional results.
Compiling Math Expressions Using Theano
Theano (http://deeplearning.net/software/theano/) is a Python library that makes it easier for you to work with various math expressions quickly. You can replace the copy of TensorFlow you installed in the “Getting your copy of TensorFlow and Keras” section ...
