Training

You're going to train your first model in this course, and for a good cause!

Remember that before training your Keras models you need to compile them. This can be done with the .compile() method. The .compile() method takes arguments such as the optimizer, used for weight updating, and the loss function, which is what we want to minimize. Training your model is as easy as calling the .fit() method, passing on the features, labels and a number of epochs to train for.

The regression model you built in the previous exercise is loaded for you to use, along with the time_steps and y_positions data. Train it and evaluate it on this very same data, let's see if your model can learn the meteor's trajectory.

Exercise instructions

Compile your model making use of the 'adam' optimizer and 'mse' as your loss function.
Fit your model using the features and labels for 30 epochs.
Evaluate your model with the .evaluate() method, passing the features and labels used during training.

In this first chapter, you will get introduced to neural networks, understand what kind of problems they can solve, and when to use them. You will also build several networks and save the earth by training a regression model that approximates the orbit of a meteor that is approaching us!

Exercise 1: What is Keras?Exercise 2: Describing Keras Exercise 3: Would you use deep learning?Exercise 4: Your first neural network Exercise 5: Hello nets!Exercise 6: Counting parameters Exercise 7: Build as shown!Exercise 8: Surviving a meteor strike Exercise 9: Specifying a model Exercise 10: Training

Exercise 11: Predicting the orbit!

By the end of this chapter, you will know how to solve binary, multi-class, and multi-label problems with neural networks. All of this by solving problems like detecting fake dollar bills, deciding who threw which dart at a board, and building an intelligent system to water your farm. You will also be able to plot model training metrics and to stop training and save your models when they no longer improve.

In the previous chapters, you've trained a lot of models! You will now learn how to interpret learning curves to understand your models as they train. You will also visualize the effects of activation functions, batch-sizes, and batch-normalization. Finally, you will learn how to perform automatic hyperparameter optimization to your Keras models using sklearn.

Exercise 1: Learning curves Exercise 2: Learning the digits Exercise 3: Is the model overfitting?Exercise 4: Do we need more data?Exercise 5: Activation functions Exercise 6: Different activation functions Exercise 7: Comparing activation functions Exercise 8: Comparing activation functions II Exercise 9: Batch size and batch normalization Exercise 10: Changing batch sizes Exercise 11: Batch normalizing a familiar model Exercise 12: Batch normalization effects Exercise 13: Hyperparameter tuning Exercise 14: Preparing a model for tuning Exercise 15: Tuning the model parameters Exercise 16: Training with cross-validation

It's time to get introduced to more advanced architectures! You will create an autoencoder to reconstruct noisy images, visualize convolutional neural network activations, use deep pre-trained models to classify images and learn more about recurrent neural networks and working with text as you build a network that predicts the next word in a sentence.
