TensorFlow Machine Learning on the Amazon Deep Learning AMI
Description
TensorFlow is a popular framework used for machine learning. The Amazon Deep Learning AMI comes bundled with everything you need to start using TensorFlow from development through to production. In this Lab, you will develop, visualize, serve, and consume a TensorFlow machine learning model using the Amazon Deep Learning AMI.
Lab Objectives
Upon completion of this lab you will be able to:
- Create machine learning models in TensorFlow
- Visualize TensorFlow graphs and the learning process in TensorBoard
- Serve trained TensorFlow models with TensorFlow Serving
- Create clients that consume served TensorFlow models, all with the Amazon Deep Learning AMI
Lab Prerequisites
You should be familiar with:
- Working at the Linux command line
- The Python programming language
- Some linear algebra knowledge is beneficial (basic vector and matrix operations)
- Basic understanding of neural networks is beneficial, but not required
