Comparing activation functions

Comparing activation functions involves a bit of coding, but nothing you can't do!

You will try out different activation functions on the multi-label model you built for your farm irrigation machine in chapter 2. The function get_model('relu') returns a copy of this model and applies the 'relu' activation function to its hidden layer.

You will loop through several activation functions, generate a new model for each and train it. By storing the history callback in a dictionary you will be able to visualize which activation function performed best in the next exercise!

X_train, y_train, X_test, y_test are ready for you to use when training your models.

Instructions

Fill up the activation functions array with relu,leaky_relu, sigmoid, and tanh.
Get a new model for each iteration with get_model() passing the current activation function as a parameter.
Fit your model providing the train and validation_data, use 20 epochs and set verbose to 0.

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.

Exercise 1: Binary classification Exercise 2: Exploring dollar bills Exercise 3: A binary classification model Exercise 4: Is this dollar bill fake ?Exercise 5: Multi-class classification Exercise 6: A multi-class model Exercise 7: Prepare your dataset Exercise 8: Training on dart throwers Exercise 9: Softmax predictions Exercise 10: Multi-label classification Exercise 11: An irrigation machine Exercise 12: Training with multiple labels Exercise 13: Keras callbacks Exercise 14: The history callback Exercise 15: Early stopping your model Exercise 16: A combination of callbacks

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

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.
