Deep Learning with Javascript: Example-Based Approach

By Kenwright

Deep Learning with Javascript provides a beginners guide to getting started with neural networks. Through a hands-on approach the book provides a wide-range of interactive examples that the user is able to customize and expand to help them understand the concepts in a real-world sense. Using example-based learning and projects. The book has been formatted and designed with sample listings and support material, so whether or not you are currently an expert in Javascript and neural network development, actively working with an existing framework, or completely in the dark about this mysterious topic, this book has something for you. If you’re an experienced developer, you’ll find this book a light refresher to the subject, and if you’re deciding whether or not to delve into web-based games, this book may help you make that significant decision. The book introduces core mathematic fundamentals in addition to projects and exercises such as feature detection, inverse kinematics, text extaction from handwritten sources and much more. The text is organised to guide the reader through the exciting topic of deep learning from a ground-up hands-on perspective. Organized around the browser-based language (Javascript) in combination with popular open source libraries (Synaptic), the book includes numerous simplified practical examples in the body of the text as well as technical explanations on limitations and engineering workarounds.

Read Grow / The reading view

Build a skill you can grow into.

The appeal of “Deep Learning with Javascript: Example-Based Approach” starts with its focus on Computers & Technology. That is fertile territory for a reader ready to move beyond collecting ideas and start making connections. Neural-network topics invite useful questions about inputs, outputs, and the evidence behind a result. Choose a small learning task and ask how you would recognise a meaningful improvement. Give the reading an outcome you can revisit. Save a first attempt, return to it with a new insight, and notice which decisions you can now explain. A good reading direction becomes more valuable when it connects to practice. Pick a question. Open a book. See where it takes you.
