Implementing DeepDream

Another usage of trained CNNs is exploiting the fact that some of the intermediate nodes detect features of labels (e.g. a cat ear or a feather of a bird). Using this fact, we can find ways to transform any image to reflect those node features of any node we choose. For this recipe, we will go through the DeepDream tutorial on TensorFlow's website. But for this recipe, we will go through the essential parts in much more detail. The hope is that we can prepare the reader to use the DeepDream algorithm for exploration of CNNs and features created in such CNNs.

Getting ready

TensorFlow's official tutorials show how to implement DeepDream through a script (refer to the first bullet point of the See also section). The purpose of ...
