Applied Deep Learning with Keras
Course Description Overview
Applied Deep Learning with Keras takes you from a basic level of knowledge of machine learning and Python to an expert understanding of applying Keras to develop efficient deep learning solutions. To understand the difference between machine and deep learning, you will build a logistic regression model once with scikit-learn and then with Keras. By building prediction models for several real-world scenarios, such as disease prediction and customer churning, you will dive deep into Keras and its many models. You will also gain knowledge about how to evaluate, optimize, and improve your models to gain maximum information. You will learn how to use Keras Wrapper with scikit-learn and implement cross-validation techniques on your findings, and apply L1, L2, and dropout regularization techniques to improve the accuracy of your model. Because accuracy itself might not be up to the mark, you will learn to apply the null accuracy, precision, sensitivity, specificity, AUC-ROC score techniques to fine tune your model. Then, you will dive deep and explore the convolutional and recurrent neural networks in detail.
By the end of this course, you will have all the skills you need to use Keras to your advantage and build superlative deep neural networks.
This course takes a practical approach to equip beginners with the most essential data analysis tools in the shortest possible time. It contains multiple activities that use real-life business scenarios for you to practice and apply your new skills in a highly relevant context. Here is the list of course objectives:
