Chapter 5 Toward DL: Frameworks and Network Tweaks

An obvious next step would be to see if adding more layers to our neural networks results in even better accuracy. However, it turns out getting deeper networks to learn well is a major obstacle. A number of innovations were needed to overcome these obstacles and enable deep learning (DL). We introduce the most important ones later in this chapter, but before doing so, we explain how to use a DL framework. The benefit of using a DL framework is that we do not need to implement all these new techniques from scratch in our neural network. The downside is that you will not deal with the details in as much depth as in previous chapters. You now have a solid enough foundation to build on. Now we ...

Head of Cybersecurity

I wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.

Addison B.

Field Engineer

I’ve been on the O’Reilly platform for more than eight years. I use a couple of learning platforms, but I'm on O'Reilly more than anybody else. When you're there, you start learning. I'm never disappointed.

Amir M.

Data Platform Tech Lead

I'm always learning. So when I got on to O'Reilly, I was like a kid in a candy store. There are playlists. There are answers. There's on-demand training. It's worth its weight in gold, in terms of what it allows me to do.
