Overview of this book

Machine learning is a subset of AI that aims to make modern-day computer systems smarter and more intelligent. The real power of machine learning resides in its algorithms, which make even the most difficult things capable of being handled by machines. However, with the advancement in the technology and requirements of data, machines will have to be smarter than they are today to meet the overwhelming data needs; mastering these algorithms and using them optimally is the need of the hour. Mastering Machine Learning Algorithms is your complete guide to quickly getting to grips with popular machine learning algorithms. You will be introduced to the most widely used algorithms in supervised, unsupervised, and semi-supervised machine learning, and will learn how to use them in the best possible manner. Ranging from Bayesian models to the MCMC algorithm to Hidden Markov models, this book will teach you how to extract features from your dataset and perform dimensionality reduction by making use of Python-based libraries such as scikit-learn v0.19.1. You will also learn how to use Keras and TensorFlow 1.x to train effective neural networks. If you are looking for a single resource to study, implement, and solve end-to-end machine learning problems and use-cases, this is the book you need.

Chapter 10. Advanced Neural Models

In this chapter, we continue our pragmatic exploration of the world of deep learning, analyzing two very important elements: deep convolutional networks and recurrent neural networks (RNN). The former represents the most accurate and best performing visual processing technique for almost any purpose. Results like the ones obtained in fields such as real-time image recognition, self-driving cars, and Deep Reinforcement Learning have been possible thanks to the expressivity of this kind of network. On the other hand, in order to fully manage the temporal dimension, it is necessary to introduce advanced recurrent layers, whose performance must be greater than any other regression method. Employing these two techniques together with all the elements already discussed in the previous chapter makes it possible to achieve extraordinary results in the field of video processing, decoding, segmentation, and generation.

In particular, in this chapter, we are going...
