Tuning is the process of maximizing a model's performance without overfitting or underfitting. This can be achieved by setting appropriate values for the model parameters. A deep neural network has multiple parameters that can be tuned; layers, hidden units optimization parameters such as an optimizer, the learning rate, and the number of epochs.
To tune Keras model parameters, we need to define flags for the parameters that we want to optimize. These are defined by the flags() function of the keras package, which returns an object of the tfruns_flags type. This contains information about the parameters to be tuned. In the following code block, we have declared four flags that will tune the dropout rate and the number of neurons ...
