Course Description
TensorFlow is a popular open-source software library for deep learning and is widely used in machine learning applications. In these lessons, you will learn about the most common training/validation split and the importance of maintaining a balance between the two sets. You will also discover one of the preprocessing techniques that TensorFlow provides for images, which is crucial for improving the accuracy of the model. Additionally, you will explore the use of shuffled data in training, and whether it is advisable to mix it with a training validation split.
Moving forward, you will dive into the basics of the flatten and dense layers in TensorFlow. The flatten layer reshapes the input data into a 1-dimensional array, while the dense layer connects all the neurons from the previous layer to the next. You will also learn about the model class used for TensorFlow, which is a fundamental tool for building deep learning models.
Overall, you will gain insights into the different types of vision and audio problems that TensorFlow can solve. You will discover the importance of training on a separate test set, and why it is not advisable to train on test data.
