In Detail

Artificial Intelligence became one of the hottest topics in the modern economy, where everything is driven by software, network and data. There exists nearly no startup nor traditional business where Artificial Intelligence is not used extensively across many fields such as search engines, image recognition, robotics or finance. 

This book gives a ground up, step by step introduction about how a Neural Network is used to learn a given function and to make intelligent data-driven decisions.

The book explains how to identify typical use-cases such as classification, regression and clustering in terms of practical and well known use-cases.

This book comes with an introduction into the state-of-the-art Google TensorFlow framework that allows developers to roll out their models in production.

On top of TensorFlow, the Keras library is used to simplify the design and training of complex deep-learning models.

This book comes with multiple examples that show how to apply Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning models for use-cases such as handwriting recognition, decision making, text analysis and toxic comment identification as well as the use of AI to recommend products to customers.
