Deep Learning with R Cookbook

Understanding Neural Networks and Deep Neural Networks

Deep learning has transformed many traditional businesses, such as web search, advertising, and many more. A major challenge with the traditional machine learning approaches is that we need to spend a considerable amount of time choosing the most appropriate feature selection process before modeling. Besides this, these traditional techniques operate with some level of human intervention and guidance. However, with deep learning algorithms, we can get rid of the overhead of explicit feature selection since it is taken care of by the models themselves. These deep learning algorithms are capable of modeling complex and non-linear relationships within the data. In this book, we'll introduce ...
