Data is the a crucial component of a machine learning model. Collecting the right data is not enough. You also need to make sure you put the right processes in place to clean, analyze and transform the data, as needed, so that the model can take the most signal of it as possible. In this module we discuss training on large datasets with tf.data, working with in-memory files, and how to get the data ready for training. Then we discuss embeddings, and end with an overview of scaling data with tf.keras preprocessing layers.

In this module, we discuss activation functions and how they are needed to allow deep neural networks to capture nonlinearities of the data. We then provide an overview of Deep Neural Networks using the Keras Sequential and Functional APIs. Next we describe model subclassing, which offers greater flexibility in model building. The module ends with a lesson on regularization.

A good understanding of bash cmds and a well-digested understanding of the course material is required to perform the labs. Quite challenging.

Great course as an introduction to TF, however, the labs are not as in depth as I'd have liked. Nonetheless, the course is well executed by the presenters.

Quite a technical course with sophisticated lab sessions, but I got good hands-on experience on building NN models using Keras and TF functional API as well as deploying the model in Vertex AI.
