The PyTorch library is for deep learning. Deep learning, indeed, is just another name for a large-scale neural network or multilayer perceptron network. In its simplest form, multilayer perceptrons are a sequence of layers connected in tandem. In this post, you will discover the simple components you can use to create neural networks and simple deep learning models in PyTorch. Kick-start your project with my book Deep Learning with PyTorch. It provides self-study tutorials with working code. Let’s get started. […]

PyTorch provides a lot of building blocks for a deep learning model, but a training loop is not part of them. It is a flexibility that allows you to do whatever you want during training, but some basic structure is universal across most use cases. In this post, you will see how to make a training loop that provides essential information for your model training, with the option to allow any information to be displayed. After completing this post, you […]

Designing a deep learning model is sometimes an art. There are a lot of decision points, and it is not easy to tell what is the best. One way to come up with a design is by trial and error and evaluating the result on real data. Therefore, it is important to have a scientific method to evaluate the performance of your neural network and deep learning models. In fact, it is also the same method to compare any kind […]

The “weights” of a neural network is referred as “parameters” in PyTorch code and it is fine-tuned by optimizer during training. On the contrary, hyperparameters are the parameters of a neural network that is fixed by design and not tuned by training. Examples are the number of hidden layers and the choice of activation functions. Hyperparameter optimization is a big part of deep learning. The reason is that neural networks are notoriously difficult to configure, and a lot of parameters […]

A deep learning model is a mathematical abstraction of data, in which a lot of parameters are involved. Training these parameters can take hours, days, and even weeks but afterward, you can make use of the result to apply on new data. This is called inference in machine learning. It is important to know how we can preserve the trained model in disk and later, load it for use in inference. In this post, you will discover how to save […]
