Many fields are benefiting from the use of deep learning, and with the R keras, tensorflow and related packages, you can now easily do state of the art deep learning in R. In this post, we want to give some orientation as to how to best get started.
Normalizing flows are one of the lesser known, yet fascinating and successful architectures in unsupervised deep learning. In this post we provide a basic introduction to flows using tfprobability, an R wrapper to TensorFlow Probability. Upcoming posts will build on this, using more complex flows on more complex data.

Continuing our series on combining Keras with TensorFlow eager execution, we show how to implement neural style transfer in a straightforward way. Based on this easy-to-adapt example, you can easily perform style transfer on your own images.

Sometimes in deep learning, architecture design and hyperparameter tuning pose substantial challenges. Using Auto-Keras, none of these is needed: We start a search procedure and extract the best-performing model. This post presents Auto-Keras in action on the well-known MNIST dataset.
Image captioning is a challenging task at intersection of vision and language. Here, we demonstrate using Keras and eager execution to incorporate an attention mechanism that allows the network to concentrate on image features relevant to the current state of text generation.
Continuing from the recent introduction to bijectors in TensorFlow Probability (TFP), this post brings autoregressivity to the table. Using TFP through the new R package tfprobability, we look at the implementation of masked autoregressive flows (MAF) and put them to use on two different datasets.

Conditional GANs (cGANs) may be used to generate one type of object based on another – e.g., a map based on a photo, or a color video based on black-and-white. Here, we show how to implement the pix2pix approach with Keras and eager execution.
This post is a first introduction to MCMC modeling with tfprobability, the R interface to TensorFlow Probability (TFP). Our example is a multi-level model describing tadpole mortality, which may be known to the reader from Richard McElreath’s wonderful “Statistical Rethinking”.

We are excited to announce the availability of the cloudml package, which provides an R interface to Google Cloud Machine Learning Engine. CloudML provides a number of services including on-demand access to training on GPUs and hyperparameter tuning to optimize key attributes of model architectures.
Using Keras to predict customer churn based on the IBM Watson Telco Customer Churn dataset. We also demonstrate using the lime package to help explain which features drive individual model predictions. In addition, we use three new packages to assist with Machine Learning: recipes for preprocessing, rsample for sampling data and yardstick for model metrics.
