Who should read this book If you’re a data scientist familiar with machine learning, this book will provide you with a solid, practical introduction to deep learning, the fastest-growing and most significant subfield of machine learning If you’re a deep-learning expert looking to get started with the Keras framework, you’ll find this book to be the best Keras crash course available If you’re a graduate student studying deep learning in a formal setting, you’ll find this book to be a practical complement to your education, helping you build intuition around the behavior of deep neural networks and familiarizing you with key best practices About This Book This book was written for anyone who wishes to explore deep learning from scratch or broaden their understanding of deep learning. Whether you’re a practicing machine-learning engineer, a software developer, or a college student, you’ll find value in these pages. This book offers a practical, hands-on exploration of deep learning. It avoids mathematical notation, preferring instead to explain quantitative concepts via code snippets and to build practical intuition about the core ideas of machine learning and deep learning. You’ll learn from more than 30 code examples that include detailed commentary, practical recommendations, and simple high-level explanations of everything you need to know to start using deep learning to solve concrete problems. The code examples use the Python deep-learning framework Keras, with Tensor- Flow as a back-end engine. Keras, one of the most popular and fastest-growing deeplearning frameworks, is widely recommended as the best tool to get started with deep learning. After reading this book, you’ll have a solid understand of what deep learning is, when it’s applicable, and what its limitations are. You’ll be familiar with the standard workflow for approaching and solving machine-learning problems, and you’ll know how to address commonly encountered issues. You’ll be able to use Keras to tackle real-world problems ranging from computer vision to natural-language processing: image classification, timeseries forecasting, sentiment analysis, image and text generation, and more. This book is written for people with Python programming experience who want to get started with machine learning and deep learning. But this book can also be valuable to many different types of readers. Even technically minded people who don’t code regularly will find this book useful as an introduction to both basic and advanced deep-learning concepts. In order to use Keras, you’ll need reasonable Python proficiency. Additionally, familiarity with the Numpy library will be helpful, although it isn’t required. You don’t need previous experience with machine learning or deep learning: this book covers from scratch all the necessary basics. You don’t need an advanced mathematics background, either—high school–level mathematics should suffice in order to follow along.

Readers' opinions about Deep Learning with Python by Francois Chollet
Virginia Savage
This book has reignited my passion for reading. It reminded me of the sheer joy that can be found in losing oneself in the pages of a good story. I can't wait to explore more books now.
Katherine Stevenson
The world created in this book was unlike anything I've ever encountered. The author's imagination knows no bounds, and I was completely mesmerized by the fantastical setting.
Sydney Richardson
This book is a work of art. The language, the imagery, the symbolism - everything came together beautifully to create a memorable reading experience.
