TensorFlow is also called a “Google” product. It includes a variety of machine learning and deep learning algorithms. TensorFlow can train and run deep neural networks for handwritten digit classification, image recognition, word embedding and creation of various sequence models.
TensorFlow - Installation
To install TensorFlow, it is important to have “Python” installed in your system. Python version 3.4+ is considered the best to start with TensorFlow installation.
Consider the following steps to install TensorFlow in Windows operating system.
Step 1 − Verify the python version being installed.
Step 2 − A user can pick up any mechanism to install TensorFlow in the system. We recommend “pip” and “Anaconda”. Pip is a command used for executing and installing modules in Python.
Before we install TensorFlow, we need to install Anaconda framework in our system.
After successful installation, check in command prompt through “conda” command. The execution of command is displayed below −
Step 3 − Execute the following command to initialize the installation of TensorFlow −
conda create --name tensorflow python = 3.5
It downloads the necessary packages needed for TensorFlow setup.
Step 4 − After successful environmental setup, it is important to activate TensorFlow module.
activate tensorflow
Step 5 − Use pip to install “Tensorflow” in the system. The command used for installation is mentioned as below −
pip install tensorflow
And,
pip install tensorflow-gpu
After successful installation, it is important to know the sample program execution of TensorFlow.
Following example helps us understand the basic program creation “Hello World” in TensorFlow.
The code for first program implementation is mentioned below −
>> activate tensorflow

Understanding Artificial Intelligence
Artificial Intelligence includes the simulation process of human intelligence by machines and special computer systems. The examples of artificial intelligence include learning, reasoning and self-correction. Applications of AI include speech recognition, expert systems, and image recognition and machine vision.
Machine learning is the branch of artificial intelligence, which deals with systems and algorithms that can learn any new data and data patterns.
Let us focus on the Venn diagram mentioned below for understanding machine learning and deep learning concepts.
Machine learning includes a section of machine learning and deep learning is a part of machine learning. The ability of program which follows machine learning concepts is to improve its performance of observed data. The main motive of data transformation is to improve its knowledge in order to achieve better results in the future, provide output closer to the desired output for that particular system. Machine learning includes “pattern recognition” which includes the ability to recognize the patterns in data.
The patterns should be trained to show the output in desirable manner.
Machine learning can be trained in two different ways −
- Supervised training
- Unsupervised training
Supervised Learning
Supervised learning or supervised training includes a procedure where the training set is given as input to the system wherein, each example is labeled with a desired output value. The training in this type is performed using minimization of a particular loss function, which represents the output error with respect to the desired output system.
After completion of training, the accuracy of each model is measured with respect to disjoint examples from training set, also called the validation set.
The best example to illustrate “Supervised learning” is with a bunch of photos given with information included in them. Here, the user can train a model to recognize new photos.
Unsupervised Learning
In unsupervised learning or unsupervised training, include training examples, which are not labeled by the system to which class they belong. The system looks for the data, which share common characteristics, and changes them based on internal knowledge features.This type of learning algorithms are basically used in clustering problems.
The best example to illustrate “Unsupervised learning” is with a bunch of photos with no information included and user trains model with classification and clustering. This type of training algorithm works with assumptions as no information is given.
TensorFlow - Mathematical Foundations
It is important to understand mathematical concepts needed for TensorFlow before creating the basic application in TensorFlow. Mathematics is considered as the heart of any machine learning algorithm. It is with the help of core concepts of Mathematics, a solution for specific machine learning algorithm is defined.
Vector
An array of numbers, which is either continuous or discrete, is defined as a vector. Machine learning algorithms deal with fixed length vectors for better output generation.
Machine learning algorithms deal with multidimensional data so vectors play a crucial role.
The pictorial representation of vector model is as shown below −
Scalar
Scalar can be defined as one-dimensional vector. Scalars are those, which include only magnitude and no direction. With scalars, we are only concerned with the magnitude.
Examples of scalar include weight and height parameters of children.
Matrix
Matrix can be defined as multi-dimensional arrays, which are arranged in the format of rows and columns. The size of matrix is defined by row length and column length. Following figure shows the representation of any specified matrix.
Consider the matrix with “m” rows and “n” columns as mentioned above, the matrix representation will be specified as “m*n matrix” which defined the length of matrix as well.
Mathematical Computations
In this section, we will learn about the different Mathematical Computations in TensorFlow.
Addition of matrices
Addition of two or more matrices is possible if the matrices are of the same dimension. The addition implies addition of each element as per the given position.
Consider the following example to understand how addition of matrices works −
$$Example:A=\begin{bmatrix}1 & 2 \\3 & 4 \end{bmatrix}B=\begin{bmatrix}5 & 6 \\7 & 8 \end{bmatrix}\:then\:A+B=\begin{bmatrix}1+5 & 2+6 \\3+7 & 4+8 \end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}6 & 8 \\10 & 12 \end{bmatrix}$$
Subtraction of matrices
The subtraction of matrices operates in similar fashion like the addition of two matrices. The user can subtract two matrices provided the dimensions are equal.
$$Example:A-\begin{bmatrix}1 & 2 \\3 & 4 \end{bmatrix}B-\begin{bmatrix}5 & 6 \\7 & 8 \end{bmatrix}\:then\:A-B-\begin{bmatrix}1-5 & 2-6 \\3-7 & 4-8 \end{bmatrix}-\begin{bmatrix}-4 & -4 \\-4 & -4 \end{bmatrix}$$
Multiplication of matrices
For two matrices A m*n and B p*q to be multipliable, n should be equal to p. The resulting matrix is −
C m*q
$$A=\begin{bmatrix}1 & 2 \\3 & 4 \end{bmatrix}B=\begin{bmatrix}5 & 6 \\7 & 8 \end{bmatrix}$$
$$c_{11}=\begin{bmatrix}1 & 2 \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}5 \\7 \end{bmatrix}=1\times5+2\times7=19\:c_{12}=\begin{bmatrix}1 & 2 \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}6 \\8 \end{bmatrix}=1\times6+2\times8=22$$
$$c_{21}=\begin{bmatrix}3 & 4 \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}5 \\7 \end{bmatrix}=3\times5+4\times7=43\:c_{22}=\begin{bmatrix}3 & 4 \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}6 \\8 \end{bmatrix}=3\times6+4\times8=50$$
$$C=\begin{bmatrix}c_{11} & c_{12} \\c_{21} & c_{22} \end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}19 & 22 \\43 & 50 \end{bmatrix}$$
Transpose of matrix
The transpose of a matrix A, m*n is generally represented by AT (transpose) n*m and is obtained by transposing the column vectors as row vectors.
$$Example:A=\begin{bmatrix}1 & 2 \\3 & 4 \end{bmatrix}\:then\:A^{T}\begin{bmatrix}1 & 3 \\2 & 4 \end{bmatrix}$$
Dot product of vectors
Any vector of dimension n can be represented as a matrix v = R^n*1.
$$v_{1}=\begin{bmatrix}v_{11} \\v_{12} \\\cdot\\\cdot\\\cdot\\v_{1n}\end{bmatrix}v_{2}=\begin{bmatrix}v_{21} \\v_{22} \\\cdot\\\cdot\\\cdot\\v_{2n}\end{bmatrix}$$
The dot product of two vectors is the sum of the product of corresponding components − Components along the same dimension and can be expressed as
$$v_{1}\cdot v_{2}=v_1^Tv_{2}=v_2^Tv_{1}=v_{11}v_{21}+v_{12}v_{22}+\cdot\cdot+v_{1n}v_{2n}=\displaystyle\sum\limits_{k=1}^n v_{1k}v_{2k}$$
The example of dot product of vectors is mentioned below −
$$Example:v_{1}=\begin{bmatrix}1 \\2 \\3\end{bmatrix}v_{2}=\begin{bmatrix}3 \\5 \\-1\end{bmatrix}v_{1}\cdot v_{2}=v_1^Tv_{2}=1\times3+2\times5-3\times1=10$$
Machine Learning and Deep Learning
Artificial Intelligence is one of the most popular trends of recent times. Machine learning and deep learning constitute artificial intelligence. The Venn diagram shown below explains the relationship of machine learning and deep learning −
Machine Learning
Machine learning is the art of science of getting computers to act as per the algorithms designed and programmed. Many researchers think machine learning is the best way to make progress towards human-level AI. Machine learning includes the following types of patterns
- Supervised learning pattern
- Unsupervised learning pattern
Deep Learning
Deep learning is a subfield of machine learning where concerned algorithms are inspired by the structure and function of the brain called artificial neural networks.
All the value today of deep learning is through supervised learning or learning from labelled data and algorithms.
Each algorithm in deep learning goes through the same process. It includes a hierarchy of nonlinear transformation of input that can be used to generate a statistical model as output.
Consider the following steps that define the Machine Learning process
- Identifies relevant data sets and prepares them for analysis.
- Chooses the type of algorithm to use
- Builds an analytical model based on the algorithm used.
- Trains the model on test data sets, revising it as needed.
- Runs the model to generate test scores.
Difference between Machine Learning and Deep learning
In this section, we will learn about the difference between Machine Learning and Deep Learning.
Amount of data
Machine learning works with large amounts of data. It is useful for small amounts of data too. Deep learning on the other hand works efficiently if the amount of data increases rapidly. The following diagram shows the working of machine learning and deep learning with the amount of data −
Hardware Dependencies
Deep learning algorithms are designed to heavily depend on high-end machines unlike the traditional machine learning algorithms. Deep learning algorithms perform a number of matrix multiplication operations, which require a large amount of hardware support.
Feature Engineering
Feature engineering is the process of putting domain knowledge into specified features to reduce the complexity of data and make patterns that are visible to learning algorithms it works.
Example − Traditional machine learning patterns focus on pixels and other attributes needed for feature engineering process. Deep learning algorithms focus on high-level features from data. It reduces the task of developing new feature extractor of every new problem.
Problem Solving Approach
The traditional machine learning algorithms follow a standard procedure to solve the problem. It breaks the problem into parts, solve each one of them and combine them to get the required result. Deep learning focusses in solving the problem from end to end instead of breaking them into divisions.
Execution Time
Execution time is the amount of time required to train an algorithm. Deep learning requires a lot of time to train as it includes a lot of parameters which takes a longer time than usual. Machine learning algorithm comparatively requires less execution time.
Interpretability
Interpretability is the major factor for comparison of machine learning and deep learning algorithms. The main reason is that deep learning is still given a second thought before its usage in industry.
Applications of Machine Learning and Deep Learning

Many of AI applications utilize machine learning algorithms primarily to drive self-service, increase agent productivity and workflows more reliable. Machine learning and deep learning algorithms include an exciting prospect for many businesses and industry leaders.
TensorFlow - Basics
In this chapter, we will learn about the basics of TensorFlow. We will begin by understanding the data structure of tensor.
Tensor Data Structure
Tensors are used as the basic data structures in TensorFlow language. Tensors represent the connecting edges in any flow diagram called the Data Flow Graph. Tensors are defined as multidimensional array or list.
Tensors are identified by the following three parameters −
Rank
Unit of dimensionality described within tensor is called rank. It identifies the number of dimensions of the tensor. A rank of a tensor can be described as the order or n-dimensions of a tensor defined.
Shape
The number of rows and columns together define the shape of Tensor.
Type
Type describes the data type assigned to Tensor’s elements.
A user needs to consider the following activities for building a Tensor −
- Build an n-dimensional array
- Convert the n-dimensional array.
Various Dimensions of TensorFlow
TensorFlow includes various dimensions. The dimensions are described in brief below −
One dimensional Tensor
One dimensional tensor is a normal array structure which includes one set of values of the same data type.
Declaration
>>> import numpy as np
>>> tensor_1d = np.array([1.3, 1, 4.0, 23.99])
>>> print tensor_1d
The implementation with the output is shown in the screenshot below −
The indexing of elements is same as Python lists. The first element starts with index of 0; to print the values through index, all you need to do is mention the index number.
>>> print tensor_1d[0]
1.3
>>> print tensor_1d[2]
4.0
Two dimensional Tensors
Sequence of arrays are used for creating “two dimensional tensors”.
The creation of two-dimensional tensors is described below −
Following is the complete syntax for creating two dimensional arrays −
>>> import numpy as np
>>> tensor_2d = np.array([(1,2,3,4),(4,5,6,7),(8,9,10,11),(12,13,14,15)])
>>> print(tensor_2d)
[[ 1 2 3 4]
[ 4 5 6 7]
[ 8 9 10 11]
[12 13 14 15]]
>>>
The specific elements of two dimensional tensors can be tracked with the help of row number and column number specified as index numbers.
>>> tensor_2d[3][2]
14
Tensor Handling and Manipulations
In this section, we will learn about Tensor Handling and Manipulations.
To begin with, let us consider the following code −
import tensorflow as tf
import numpy as np
matrix1 = np.array([(2,2,2),(2,2,2),(2,2,2)],dtype = 'int32')
matrix2 = np.array([(1,1,1),(1,1,1),(1,1,1)],dtype = 'int32')
print (matrix1)
print (matrix2)
matrix1 = tf.constant(matrix1)
matrix2 = tf.constant(matrix2)
matrix_product = tf.matmul(matrix1, matrix2)
matrix_sum = tf.add(matrix1,matrix2)
matrix_3 = np.array([(2,7,2),(1,4,2),(9,0,2)],dtype = 'float32')
print (matrix_3)
matrix_det = tf.matrix_determinant(matrix_3)
with tf.Session() as sess:
result1 = sess.run(matrix_product)
result2 = sess.run(matrix_sum)
result3 = sess.run(matrix_det)
print (result1)
print (result2)
print (result3)
Output
The above code will generate the following output −
Explanation
We have created multidimensional arrays in the above source code. Now, it is important to understand that we created graph and sessions, which manage the Tensors and generate the appropriate output. With the help of graph, we have the output specifying the mathematical calculations between Tensors.
TensorFlow - Convolutional Neural Networks
After understanding machine-learning concepts, we can now shift our focus to deep learning concepts. Deep learning is a division of machine learning and is considered as a crucial step taken by researchers in recent decades. The examples of deep learning implementation include applications like image recognition and speech recognition.
Following are the two important types of deep neural networks −
- Convolutional Neural Networks
- Recurrent Neural Networks
In this chapter, we will focus on the CNN, Convolutional Neural Networks.
Convolutional Neural Networks
Convolutional Neural networks are designed to process data through multiple layers of arrays. This type of neural networks is used in applications like image recognition or face recognition. The primary difference between CNN and any other ordinary neural network is that CNN takes input as a two-dimensional array and operates directly on the images rather than focusing on feature extraction which other neural networks focus on.
The dominant approach of CNN includes solutions for problems of recognition. Top companies like Google and Facebook have invested in research and development towards recognition projects to get activities done with greater speed.
A convolutional neural network uses three basic ideas −
- Local respective fields
- Convolution
- Pooling
Let us understand these ideas in detail.
CNN utilizes spatial correlations that exist within the input data. Each concurrent layer of a neural network connects some input neurons. This specific region is called local receptive field. Local receptive field focusses on the hidden neurons. The hidden neurons process the input data inside the mentioned field not realizing the changes outside the specific boundary.
Following is a diagram representation of generating local respective fields −
If we observe the above representation, each connection learns a weight of the hidden neuron with an associated connection with movement from one layer to another. Here, individual neurons perform a shift from time to time. This process is called “convolution”.
The mapping of connections from the input layer to the hidden feature map is defined as “shared weights” and bias included is called “shared bias”.
CNN or convolutional neural networks use pooling layers, which are the layers, positioned immediately after CNN declaration. It takes the input from the user as a feature map that comes out of convolutional networks and prepares a condensed feature map. Pooling layers helps in creating layers with neurons of previous layers.
TensorFlow Implementation of CNN
In this section, we will learn about the TensorFlow implementation of CNN. The steps,which require the execution and proper dimension of the entire network, are as shown below −
Step 1 − Include the necessary modules for TensorFlow and the data set modules, which are needed to compute the CNN model.
import tensorflow as tf
import numpy as np
from tensorflow.examples.tutorials.mnist import input_data
Step 2 − Declare a function called run_cnn(), which includes various parameters and optimization variables with declaration of data placeholders. These optimization variables will declare the training pattern.
def run_cnn():
mnist = input_data.read_data_sets("MNIST_data/", one_hot = True)
learning_rate = 0.0001
epochs = 10
batch_size = 50
Step 3 − In this step, we will declare the training data placeholders with input parameters - for 28 x 28 pixels = 784. This is the flattened image data that is drawn from mnist.train.nextbatch().
We can reshape the tensor according to our requirements. The first value (-1) tells function to dynamically shape that dimension based on the amount of data passed to it. The two middle dimensions are set to the image size (i.e. 28 x 28).
x = tf.placeholder(tf.float32, [None, 784])
x_shaped = tf.reshape(x, [-1, 28, 28, 1])
y = tf.placeholder(tf.float32, [None, 10])
Step 4 − Now it is important to create some convolutional layers −
layer1 = create_new_conv_layer(x_shaped, 1, 32, [5, 5], [2, 2], name = 'layer1')
layer2 = create_new_conv_layer(layer1, 32, 64, [5, 5], [2, 2], name = 'layer2')
Step 5 − Let us flatten the output ready for the fully connected output stage - after two layers of stride 2 pooling with the dimensions of 28 x 28, to dimension of 14 x 14 or minimum 7 x 7 x,y co-ordinates, but with 64 output channels. To create the fully connected with "dense" layer, the new shape needs to be [-1, 7 x 7 x 64]. We can set up some weights and bias values for this layer, then activate with ReLU.
flattened = tf.reshape(layer2, [-1, 7 * 7 * 64])
wd1 = tf.Variable(tf.truncated_normal([7 * 7 * 64, 1000], stddev = 0.03), name = 'wd1')
bd1 = tf.Variable(tf.truncated_normal([1000], stddev = 0.01), name = 'bd1')
dense_layer1 = tf.matmul(flattened, wd1) + bd1
dense_layer1 = tf.nn.relu(dense_layer1)
Step 6 − Another layer with specific softmax activations with the required optimizer defines the accuracy assessment, which makes the setup of initialization operator.
wd2 = tf.Variable(tf.truncated_normal([1000, 10], stddev = 0.03), name = 'wd2')
bd2 = tf.Variable(tf.truncated_normal([10], stddev = 0.01), name = 'bd2')
dense_layer2 = tf.matmul(dense_layer1, wd2) + bd2
y_ = tf.nn.softmax(dense_layer2)
cross_entropy = tf.reduce_mean(
tf.nn.softmax_cross_entropy_with_logits(logits = dense_layer2, labels = y))
optimiser = tf.train.AdamOptimizer(learning_rate = learning_rate).minimize(cross_entropy)
correct_prediction = tf.equal(tf.argmax(y, 1), tf.argmax(y_, 1))
accuracy = tf.reduce_mean(tf.cast(correct_prediction, tf.float32))
init_op = tf.global_variables_initializer()
Step 7 − We should set up recording variables. This adds up a summary to store the accuracy of data.
tf.summary.scalar('accuracy', accuracy)
merged = tf.summary.merge_all()
writer = tf.summary.FileWriter('E:\TensorFlowProject')
with tf.Session() as sess:
sess.run(init_op)
total_batch = int(len(mnist.train.labels) / batch_size)
for epoch in range(epochs):
avg_cost = 0
for i in range(total_batch):
batch_x, batch_y = mnist.train.next_batch(batch_size = batch_size)
_, c = sess.run([optimiser, cross_entropy], feed_dict = {
x:batch_x, y: batch_y})
avg_cost += c / total_batch
test_acc = sess.run(accuracy, feed_dict = {x: mnist.test.images, y:
mnist.test.labels})
summary = sess.run(merged, feed_dict = {x: mnist.test.images, y:
mnist.test.labels})
writer.add_summary(summary, epoch)
print("\nTraining complete!")
writer.add_graph(sess.graph)
print(sess.run(accuracy, feed_dict = {x: mnist.test.images, y:
mnist.test.labels}))
def create_new_conv_layer(
input_data, num_input_channels, num_filters,filter_shape, pool_shape, name):
conv_filt_shape = [
filter_shape[0], filter_shape[1], num_input_channels, num_filters]
weights = tf.Variable(
tf.truncated_normal(conv_filt_shape, stddev = 0.03), name = name+'_W')
bias = tf.Variable(tf.truncated_normal([num_filters]), name = name+'_b')
#Out layer defines the output
out_layer =
tf.nn.conv2d(input_data, weights, [1, 1, 1, 1], padding = 'SAME')
out_layer += bias
out_layer = tf.nn.relu(out_layer)
ksize = [1, pool_shape[0], pool_shape[1], 1]
strides = [1, 2, 2, 1]
out_layer = tf.nn.max_pool(
out_layer, ksize = ksize, strides = strides, padding = 'SAME')
return out_layer
if __name__ == "__main__":
run_cnn()
Following is the output generated by the above code −

TensorFlow - Recurrent Neural Networks
Recurrent neural networks is a type of deep learning-oriented algorithm, which follows a sequential approach. In neural networks, we always assume that each input and output is independent of all other layers. These type of neural networks are called recurrent because they perform mathematical computations in sequential manner.
Consider the following steps to train a recurrent neural network −
Step 1 − Input a specific example from dataset.
Step 2 − Network will take an example and compute some calculations using randomly initialized variables.
Step 3 − A predicted result is then computed.
Step 4 − The comparison of actual result generated with the expected value will produce an error.
Step 5 − To trace the error, it is propagated through same path where the variables are also adjusted.
Step 6 − The steps from 1 to 5 are repeated until we are confident that the variables declared to get the output are defined properly.
Step 7 − A systematic prediction is made by applying these variables to get new unseen input.
The schematic approach of representing recurrent neural networks is described below −
Recurrent Neural Network Implementation with TensorFlow
In this section, we will learn how to implement recurrent neural network with TensorFlow.
Step 1 − TensorFlow includes various libraries for specific implementation of the recurrent neural network module.
#Import necessary modules
from __future__ import print_function
import tensorflow as tf
from tensorflow.contrib import rnn
from tensorflow.examples.tutorials.mnist import input_data
mnist = input_data.read_data_sets("/tmp/data/", one_hot = True)
As mentioned above, the libraries help in defining the input data, which forms the primary part of recurrent neural network implementation.
Step 2 − Our primary motive is to classify the images using a recurrent neural network, where we consider every image row as a sequence of pixels. MNIST image shape is specifically defined as 28*28 px. Now we will handle 28 sequences of 28 steps for each sample that is mentioned. We will define the input parameters to get the sequential pattern done.
n_input = 28 # MNIST data input with img shape 28*28
n_steps = 28
n_hidden = 128
n_classes = 10
# tf Graph input
x = tf.placeholder("float", [None, n_steps, n_input])
y = tf.placeholder("float", [None, n_classes]
weights = {
'out': tf.Variable(tf.random_normal([n_hidden, n_classes]))
}
biases = {
'out': tf.Variable(tf.random_normal([n_classes]))
}
Step 3 − Compute the results using a defined function in RNN to get the best results. Here, each data shape is compared with current input shape and the results are computed to maintain the accuracy rate.
def RNN(x, weights, biases):
x = tf.unstack(x, n_steps, 1)
# Define a lstm cell with tensorflow
lstm_cell = rnn.BasicLSTMCell(n_hidden, forget_bias=1.0)
# Get lstm cell output
outputs, states = rnn.static_rnn(lstm_cell, x, dtype = tf.float32)
# Linear activation, using rnn inner loop last output
return tf.matmul(outputs[-1], weights['out']) + biases['out']
pred = RNN(x, weights, biases)
# Define loss and optimizer
cost = tf.reduce_mean(tf.nn.softmax_cross_entropy_with_logits(logits = pred, labels = y))
optimizer = tf.train.AdamOptimizer(learning_rate = learning_rate).minimize(cost)
# Evaluate model
correct_pred = tf.equal(tf.argmax(pred,1), tf.argmax(y,1))
accuracy = tf.reduce_mean(tf.cast(correct_pred, tf.float32))
# Initializing the variables
init = tf.global_variables_initializer()
Step 4 − In this step, we will launch the graph to get the computational results. This also helps in calculating the accuracy for test results.
with tf.Session() as sess:
sess.run(init)
step = 1
# Keep training until reach max iterations
while step * batch_size < training_iters:
batch_x, batch_y = mnist.train.next_batch(batch_size)
batch_x = batch_x.reshape((batch_size, n_steps, n_input))
sess.run(optimizer, feed_dict={x: batch_x, y: batch_y})
if step % display_step == 0:
# Calculate batch accuracy
acc = sess.run(accuracy, feed_dict={x: batch_x, y: batch_y})
# Calculate batch loss
loss = sess.run(cost, feed_dict={x: batch_x, y: batch_y})
print("Iter " + str(step*batch_size) + ", Minibatch Loss= " + \
"{:.6f}".format(loss) + ", Training Accuracy= " + \
"{:.5f}".format(acc))
step += 1
print("Optimization Finished!")
test_len = 128
test_data = mnist.test.images[:test_len].reshape((-1, n_steps, n_input))
test_label = mnist.test.labels[:test_len]
print("Testing Accuracy:", \
sess.run(accuracy, feed_dict={x: test_data, y: test_label}))

TensorFlow includes a visualization tool, which is called the TensorBoard. It is used for analyzing Data Flow Graph and also used to understand machine-learning models. The important feature of TensorBoard includes a view of different types of statistics about the parameters and details of any graph in vertical alignment.
Deep neural network includes up to 36,000 nodes. TensorBoard helps in collapsing these nodes in high-level blocks and highlighting the identical structures. This allows better analysis of graph focusing on the primary sections of the computation graph. The TensorBoard visualization is said to be very interactive where a user can pan, zoom and expand the nodes to display the details.
The following schematic diagram representation shows the complete working of TensorBoard visualization −
The algorithms collapse nodes into high-level blocks and highlight the specific groups with identical structures, which separate high-degree nodes. The TensorBoard thus created is useful and is treated equally important for tuning a machine learning model. This visualization tool is designed for the configuration log file with summary information and details that need to be displayed.
Let us focus on the demo example of TensorBoard visualization with the help of the following code −
import tensorflow as tf
# Constants creation for TensorBoard visualization
a = tf.constant(10,name = "a")
b = tf.constant(90,name = "b")
y = tf.Variable(a+b*2,name = 'y')
model = tf.initialize_all_variables() #Creation of model
with tf.Session() as session:
merged = tf.merge_all_summaries()
writer = tf.train.SummaryWriter("/tmp/tensorflowlogs",session.graph)
session.run(model)
print(session.run(y))
The following table shows the various symbols of TensorBoard visualization used for the node representation −
TensorFlow - Word Embedding
Word embedding is the concept of mapping from discrete objects such as words to vectors and real numbers. It is important for input for machine learning. The concept includes standard functions, which effectively transform discrete input objects to useful vectors.
The sample illustration of input of word embedding is as shown below −
blue: (0.01359, 0.00075997, 0.24608, ..., -0.2524, 1.0048, 0.06259)
blues: (0.01396, 0.11887, -0.48963, ..., 0.033483, -0.10007, 0.1158)

oranges: (-0.35609, 0.21854, 0.080944, ..., -0.35413, 0.38511, -0.070976)
Word2vec
Word2vec is the most common approach used for unsupervised word embedding technique. It trains the model in such a way that a given input word predicts the word’s context by using skip-grams.
TensorFlow enables many ways to implement this kind of model with increasing levels of sophistication and optimization and using multithreading concepts and higher-level abstractions.

TensorFlow - Single Layer Perceptron
For understanding single layer perceptron, it is important to understand Artificial Neural Networks (ANN). Artificial neural networks is the information processing system the mechanism of which is inspired with the functionality of biological neural circuits. An artificial neural network possesses many processing units connected to each other. Following is the schematic representation of artificial neural network −
The diagram shows that the hidden units communicate with the external layer. While the input and output units communicate only through the hidden layer of the network.
The pattern of connection with nodes, the total number of layers and level of nodes between inputs and outputs with the number of neurons per layer define the architecture of a neural network.
There are two types of architecture. These types focus on the functionality artificial neural networks as follows −
- Single Layer Perceptron
- Multi-Layer Perceptron
Single Layer Perceptron
Single layer perceptron is the first proposed neural model created. The content of the local memory of the neuron consists of a vector of weights. The computation of a single layer perceptron is performed over the calculation of sum of the input vector each with the value multiplied by corresponding element of vector of the weights. The value which is displayed in the output will be the input of an activation function.
Let us focus on the implementation of single layer perceptron for an image classification problem using TensorFlow. The best example to illustrate the single layer perceptron is through representation of “Logistic Regression”.
Now, let us consider the following basic steps of training logistic regression −
The weights are initialized with random values at the beginning of the training.
For each element of the training set, the error is calculated with the difference between desired output and the actual output. The error calculated is used to adjust the weights.
The process is repeated until the error made on the entire training set is not less than the specified threshold, until the maximum number of iterations is reached.
The complete code for evaluation of logistic regression is mentioned below −
# Import MINST data

# Create model
# Set model weights

# Calculate accuracy

("Model accuracy:", accuracy.eval({x: mnist.test.images, y: mnist.test.labels}))
Output
The above code generates the following output −
The logistic regression is considered as a predictive analysis. Logistic regression is used to describe data and to explain the relationship between one dependent binary variable and one or more nominal or independent variables.
TensorFlow - Linear Regression
In this chapter, we will focus on the basic example of linear regression implementation using TensorFlow. Logistic regression or linear regression is a supervised machine learning approach for the classification of order discrete categories. Our goal in this chapter is to build a model by which a user can predict the relationship between predictor variables and one or more independent variables.
The relationship between these two variables is cons −idered linear. If y is the dependent variable and x is considered as the independent variable, then the linear regression relationship of two variables will look like the following equation −
Y = Ax+b
We will design an algorithm for linear regression. This will allow us to understand the following two important concepts −
- Cost Function
- Gradient descent algorithms
The schematic representation of linear regression is mentioned below −
The graphical view of the equation of linear regression is mentioned below −
Steps to design an algorithm for linear regression
We will now learn about the steps that help in designing an algorithm for linear regression.
Step 1
It is important to import the necessary modules for plotting the linear regression module. We start importing the Python library NumPy and Matplotlib.
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
Step 2
Define the number of coefficients necessary for logistic regression.
number_of_points = 500
x_point = []
y_point = []
a = 0.22
b = 0.78
Step 3
Iterate the variables for generating 300 random points around the regression equation −
Y = 0.22x+0.78
for i in range(number_of_points):
x = np.random.normal(0.0,0.5)
y = a*x + b +np.random.normal(0.0,0.1) x_point.append([x])
y_point.append([y])
Step 4
View the generated points using Matplotlib.
fplt.plot(x_point,y_point, 'o', label = 'Input Data') plt.legend() plt.show()
The complete code for logistic regression is as follows −
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
number_of_points = 500
x_point = []
y_point = []
a = 0.22
b = 0.78
for i in range(number_of_points):
x = np.random.normal(0.0,0.5)
y = a*x + b +np.random.normal(0.0,0.1) x_point.append([x])
y_point.append([y])
plt.plot(x_point,y_point, 'o', label = 'Input Data') plt.legend()
plt.show()
The number of points which is taken as input is considered as input data.
TensorFlow - TFLearn And Its Installation
TFLearn can be defined as a modular and transparent deep learning aspect used in TensorFlow framework. The main motive of TFLearn is to provide a higher level API to TensorFlow for facilitating and showing up new experiments.
Consider the following important features of TFLearn −
TFLearn is easy to use and understand.
It includes easy concepts to build highly modular network layers, optimizers and various metrics embedded within them.
It includes full transparency with TensorFlow work system.
It includes powerful helper functions to train the built in tensors which accept multiple inputs, outputs and optimizers.
It includes easy and beautiful graph visualization.
The graph visualization includes various details of weights, gradients and activations.
Install TFLearn by executing the following command −
pip install tflearn
Upon execution of the above code, the following output will be generated −
The following illustration shows the implementation of TFLearn with Random Forest classifier −
from __future__ import division, print_function, absolute_import
#TFLearn module implementation
import tflearn
from tflearn.estimators import RandomForestClassifier
# Data loading and pre-processing with respect to dataset
import tflearn.datasets.mnist as mnist
X, Y, testX, testY = mnist.load_data(one_hot = False)
m = RandomForestClassifier(n_estimators = 100, max_nodes = 1000)
m.fit(X, Y, batch_size = 10000, display_step = 10)
print("Compute the accuracy on train data:")
print(m.evaluate(X, Y, tflearn.accuracy_op))
print("Compute the accuracy on test set:")
print(m.evaluate(testX, testY, tflearn.accuracy_op))
print("Digits for test images id 0 to 5:")
print(m.predict(testX[:5]))
print("True digits:")
print(testY[:5])
TensorFlow - CNN And RNN Difference
In this chapter, we will focus on the difference between CNN and RNN −
| CNN |
RNN |
| It is suitable for spatial data such as images. |
RNN is suitable for temporal data, also called sequential data. |
| CNN is considered to be more powerful than RNN. |
RNN includes less feature compatibility when compared to CNN. |
| This network takes fixed size inputs and generates fixed size outputs. |
RNN can handle arbitrary input/output lengths. |
| CNN is a type of feed-forward artificial neural network with variations of multilayer perceptrons designed to use minimal amounts of preprocessing. |
RNN unlike feed forward neural networks - can use their internal memory to process arbitrary sequences of inputs. |
| CNNs use connectivity pattern between the neurons. This is inspired by the organization of the animal visual cortex, whose individual neurons are arranged in such a way that they respond to overlapping regions tiling the visual field. |
Recurrent neural networks use time-series information - what a user spoke last will impact what he/she will speak next. |
| CNNs are ideal for images and video processing. |
RNNs are ideal for text and speech analysis. |
Following illustration shows the schematic representation of CNN and RNN −
TensorFlow - Keras
Keras is compact, easy to learn, high-level Python library run on top of TensorFlow framework. It is made with focus of understanding deep learning techniques, such as creating layers for neural networks maintaining the concepts of shapes and mathematical details. The creation of freamework can be of the following two types −
- Sequential API
- Functional API
Consider the following eight steps to create deep learning model in Keras −
- Loading the data
- Preprocess the loaded data
- Definition of model
- Compiling the model
- Fit the specified model
- Evaluate it
- Make the required predictions
- Save the model
We will use the Jupyter Notebook for execution and display of output as shown below −
Step 1 − Loading the data and preprocessing the loaded data is implemented first to execute the deep learning model.
import warnings
warnings.filterwarnings('ignore')
import numpy as np
np.random.seed(123) # for reproducibility
from keras.models import Sequential
from keras.layers import Flatten, MaxPool2D, Conv2D, Dense, Reshape, Dropout
from keras.utils import np_utils
Using TensorFlow backend.
from keras.datasets import mnist
# Load pre-shuffled MNIST data into train and test sets
(X_train, y_train), (X_test, y_test) = mnist.load_data()
X_train = X_train.reshape(X_train.shape[0], 28, 28, 1)
X_test = X_test.reshape(X_test.shape[0], 28, 28, 1)
X_train = X_train.astype('float32')
X_test = X_test.astype('float32')
X_train /= 255
X_test /= 255
Y_train = np_utils.to_categorical(y_train, 10)
Y_test = np_utils.to_categorical(y_test, 10)
This step can be defined as “Import libraries and Modules” which means all the libraries and modules are imported as an initial step.
Step 2 − In this step, we will define the model architecture −
model = Sequential()
model.add(Conv2D(32, 3, 3, activation = 'relu', input_shape = (28,28,1)))
model.add(Conv2D(32, 3, 3, activation = 'relu'))
model.add(MaxPool2D(pool_size = (2,2)))
model.add(Dropout(0.25))
model.add(Flatten())
model.add(Dense(128, activation = 'relu'))
model.add(Dropout(0.5))
model.add(Dense(10, activation = 'softmax'))
Step 3 − Let us now compile the specified model −
model.compile(loss = 'categorical_crossentropy', optimizer = 'adam', metrics = ['accuracy'])
Step 4 − We will now fit the model using training data −
model.fit(X_train, Y_train, batch_size = 32, epochs = 10, verbose = 1)
The output of iterations created is as follows −
Epoch 1/10 60000/60000 [==============================] - 65s -

TensorFlow - Distributed Computing
This chapter will focus on how to get started with distributed TensorFlow. The aim is to help developers understand the basic distributed TF concepts that are reoccurring, such as TF servers. We will use the Jupyter Notebook for evaluating distributed TensorFlow. The implementation of distributed computing with TensorFlow is mentioned below −
Step 1 − Import the necessary modules mandatory for distributed computing −
import tensorflow as tf
Step 2 − Create a TensorFlow cluster with one node. Let this node be responsible for a job that that has name "worker" and that will operate one take at localhost:2222.
cluster_spec = tf.train.ClusterSpec({'worker' : ['localhost:2222']})
server = tf.train.Server(cluster_spec)
server.target
The above scripts generate the following output −
'grpc://localhost:2222'
The server is currently running.
Step 3 − The server configuration with respective session can be calculated by executing the following command −
server.server_def
The above command generates the following output −
cluster {
job {
name: "worker"
tasks {
value: "localhost:2222"
}
}
}
job_name: "worker"
protocol: "grpc"
Step 4 − Launch a TensorFlow session with the execution engine being the server. Use TensorFlow to create a local server and use lsof to find out the location of the server.
sess = tf.Session(target = server.target)
server = tf.train.Server.create_local_server()
Step 5 − View devices available in this session and close the respective session.
devices = sess.list_devices()
for d in devices:
print(d.name)
sess.close()
The above command generates the following output −
/job:worker/replica:0/task:0/device:CPU:0
TensorFlow - Exporting
Here, we will focus on MetaGraph formation in TensorFlow. This will help us understand export module in TensorFlow. The MetaGraph contains the basic information, which is required to train, perform evaluation, or run inference on a previously trained graph.
Following is the code snippet for the same −
def export_meta_graph(filename = None, collection_list = None, as_text = False):
"""this code writes `MetaGraphDef` to save_path/filename.
Arguments:
filename: Optional meta_graph filename including the path. collection_list:
List of string keys to collect. as_text: If `True`,
writes the meta_graph as an ASCII proto.
Returns:
A `MetaGraphDef` proto. """
One of the typical usage model for the same is mentioned below −
# Build the model ...
with tf.Session() as sess:
# Use the model ...
# Export the model to /tmp/my-model.meta.
meta_graph_def = tf.train.export_meta_graph(filename = '/tmp/my-model.meta')
TensorFlow - Multi-Layer Perceptron Learning
Multi-Layer perceptron defines the most complicated architecture of artificial neural networks. It is substantially formed from multiple layers of perceptron.
The diagrammatic representation of multi-layer perceptron learning is as shown below −
MLP networks are usually used for supervised learning format. A typical learning algorithm for MLP networks is also called back propagation’s algorithm.
Now, we will focus on the implementation with MLP for an image classification problem.

TensorFlow - Optimizers
Optimizers are the extended class, which include added information to train a specific model. The optimizer class is initialized with given parameters but it is important to remember that no Tensor is needed. The optimizers are used for improving speed and performance for training a specific model.
The basic optimizer of TensorFlow is −
tf.train.Optimizer
This class is defined in the specified path of tensorflow/python/training/optimizer.py.
Following are some optimizers in Tensorflow −
- Stochastic Gradient descent
- Stochastic Gradient descent with gradient clipping
- Momentum
- Nesterov momentum
- Adagrad
- Adadelta
- RMSProp
- Adam
- Adamax
- SMORMS3
We will focus on the Stochastic Gradient descent. The illustration for creating optimizer for the same is mentioned below −
def sgd(cost, params, lr = np.float32(0.01)):
g_params = tf.gradients(cost, params)
updates = []
for param, g_param in zip(params, g_params):
updates.append(param.assign(param - lr*g_param))
return updates
The basic parameters are defined within the specific function. In our subsequent chapter, we will focus on Gradient Descent Optimization with implementation of optimizers.
TensorFlow - XOR Implementation

XOR Cipher encryption method is basically used to encrypt data which is hard to crack with brute force method, i.e., by generating random encryption keys which match the appropriate key.
The concept of implementation with XOR Cipher is to define a XOR encryption key and then perform XOR operation of the characters in the specified string with this key, which a user tries to encrypt. Now we will focus on XOR implementation using TensorFlow, which is mentioned below −

TensorFlow - Forming Graphs
A partial differential equation (PDE) is a differential equation, which involves partial derivatives with unknown function of several independent variables. With reference to partial differential equations, we will focus on creating new graphs.
Let us assume there is a pond with dimension 500*500 square −
N = 500
Now, we will compute partial differential equation and form the respective graph using it. Consider the steps given below for computing graph.
Step 1 − Import libraries for simulation.
import tensorflow as tf
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
Step 2 − Include functions for transformation of a 2D array into a convolution kernel and simplified 2D convolution operation.
def make_kernel(a):
a = np.asarray(a)
a = a.reshape(list(a.shape) + [1,1])
return tf.constant(a, dtype=1)
def simple_conv(x, k):
"""A simplified 2D convolution operation"""
x = tf.expand_dims(tf.expand_dims(x, 0), -1)
y = tf.nn.depthwise_conv2d(x, k, [1, 1, 1, 1], padding = 'SAME')
return y[0, :, :, 0]
def laplace(x):
"""Compute the 2D laplacian of an array"""
laplace_k = make_kernel([[0.5, 1.0, 0.5], [1.0, -6., 1.0], [0.5, 1.0, 0.5]])
return simple_conv(x, laplace_k)
sess = tf.InteractiveSession()
Step 3 − Include the number of iterations and compute the graph to display the records accordingly.
N = 500
# Initial Conditions -- some rain drops hit a pond
# Set everything to zero
u_init = np.zeros([N, N], dtype = np.float32)
ut_init = np.zeros([N, N], dtype = np.float32)
# Some rain drops hit a pond at random points
for n in range(100):
a,b = np.random.randint(0, N, 2)
u_init[a,b] = np.random.uniform()
plt.imshow(u_init)
plt.show()
# Parameters:
# eps -- time resolution
# damping -- wave damping
eps = tf.placeholder(tf.float32, shape = ())
damping = tf.placeholder(tf.float32, shape = ())
# Create variables for simulation state
U = tf.Variable(u_init)
Ut = tf.Variable(ut_init)
# Discretized PDE update rules
U_ = U + eps * Ut
Ut_ = Ut + eps * (laplace(U) - damping * Ut)
# Operation to update the state
step = tf.group(U.assign(U_), Ut.assign(Ut_))
# Initialize state to initial conditions
tf.initialize_all_variables().run()
# Run 1000 steps of PDE

Image Recognition using TensorFlow
TensorFlow includes a special feature of image recognition and these images are stored in a specific folder. With relatively same images, it will be easy to implement this logic for security purposes.
The folder structure of image recognition code implementation is as shown below −
The dataset_image includes the related images, which need to be loaded. We will focus on image recognition with our logo defined in it. The images are loaded with “load_data.py” script, which helps in keeping a note on various image recognition modules within them.
import pickle
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from scipy import misc
import numpy as np
import os
label = os.listdir("dataset_image")
label = label[1:]
dataset = []
for image_label in label:
images = os.listdir("dataset_image/"+image_label)
for image in images:
img = misc.imread("dataset_image/"+image_label+"/"+image)
img = misc.imresize(img, (64, 64))
dataset.append((img,image_label))
X = []
Y = []
for input,image_label in dataset:
X.append(input)
Y.append(label.index(image_label))
X = np.array(X)
Y = np.array(Y)
X_train,y_train, = X,Y
data_set = (X_train,y_train)
save_label = open("int_to_word_out.pickle","wb")
pickle.dump(label, save_label)
save_label.close()
The training of images helps in storing the recognizable patterns within specified folder.

Recommendations for Neural Network Training
In this chapter, we will understand the various aspects of neural network training which can be implemented using TensorFlow framework.
Following are the ten recommendations, which can be evaluated −
Back Propagation
Back propagation is a simple method to compute partial derivatives, which includes the basic form of composition best suitable for neural nets.
Stochastic Gradient Descent
In stochastic gradient descent, a batch is the total number of examples, which a user uses to calculate the gradient in a single iteration. So far, it is assumed that the batch has been the entire data set. The best illustration is working at Google scale; data sets often contain billions or even hundreds of billions of examples.
Learning Rate Decay
Adapting the learning rate is one of the most important features of gradient descent optimization. This is crucial to TensorFlow implementation.
Dropout
Deep neural nets with a large number of parameters form powerful machine learning systems. However, over fitting is a serious problem in such networks.
Max Pooling
Max pooling is a sample-based discretization process. The object is to down-sample an input representation, which reduces the dimensionality with the required assumptions.
Long Short Term Memory (LSTM)
LSTM controls the decision on what inputs should be taken within the specified neuron. It includes the control on deciding what should be computed and what output should be generated.
