Deep Learning with PyTorch by Eli Stevens and Luca Antiga ISBN 9781617295263 400 pages (estimated) $49.99 Publication in Winter, 2019 (estimated) Introducing deep learning and the PyTorch library This chapter covers What this book will teach you PyTorch’s role as a library for building deep learning projects The strengths and weaknesses of PyTorch The hardware you’ll need to follow along with the examples We’re living through exciting times. The landscape of what computers can do is changing by the week. Tasks that only a few years ago were thought to require higher cognition are getting solved by machines at near-superhuman levels of per- formance. Tasks such as describing a photographic image with a sentence in idiom- atic English, playing complex strategy game, and diagnosing a tumor from a radiological scan are all approachable now by a computer. Even more impressively, computers acquire the ability to solve such tasks through examples, rather than human-encoded of handcrafted rules. It would be disingenuous to assert that machines are learning to “think” in any human sense of the word. Rather, a general class of algorithms is able to approxi- 1 2 CHAPTER 1 Introducing deep learning and the PyTorch library mate complicated, nonlinear processes extremely effectively. In a way, we’re learning that intelligence, as we subjectively perceive it, is a notion that’s often conflated with self-awareness, and self-awareness definitely isn’t required to solve or carry out these kinds of problems. In the end, the question of computer intelligence may not even be important. As pioneering computer scientist Edsger W. Dijkstra said in “The Threats to Computing Science,” Alan M. Turing thought about . the question of whether Machines Can Think, a question . about as relevant as the question of whether Submarines Can Swim. That general class of algorithms we’re talking about falls under the category of deep learning, which deals with training mathematical entities named deep neural networks on the basis of examples. Deep learning leverages large amounts of data to approximate complex functions whose inputs and outputs are far apart, such as an image (input) and a line of text describing the input (output); a written script (input) and a natural- sounding voice reciting the script (output); or, even more simply, associating an image of a golden retriever with a flag that indicates that a golden retriever is present. This capability allows developers to create programs with functionality that until recently was the exclusive domain of human beings. 1.1 What is PyTorch? PyTorch is a library for Python programs that facilitates building deep learning proj- ects. It emphasizes flexibility and allows deep learning models to be expressed in idi- omatic Python. This approachability and ease of use found early adopters in the research community, and in the years since the library’s release, it has grown into one of the most prominent deep learning tools for a broad range of applications. PyTorch provides a core data structure, the Tensor, a multidimensional array that has many similarities with NumPy arrays. From that foundation, a laundry list of fea- tures was built to make it easy to get a project up and running, or to design and train investigation into a new neural network architecture. Tensors accelerate mathematical operations (assuming that the appropriate combination of hardware and software is present), and PyTorch has packages for distributed training, worker processes for effi- cient data loading, and an extensive library of common deep learning functions. As Python is for programming, PyTorch is both an excellent introduction to deep learning and a tool usable in professional contexts for real-world, high-level work. We believe that PyTorch should be the first deep learning library you learn. Whether it should be the last is a decision that we’ll leave to you. 1.2 What is this book? This book is intended to be a starting point for software engineers, data scientists, and motivated students who are fluent in Python and want to become comfortable using PyTorch to build deep learning projects. To that end, we take a hands-on approach; we encourage you to keep your computer at the ready so that you can play with the examples and take them a step further. Why PyTorch? 3 Though we stress the practical applications, we also believe that providing an accessible introduction to foundational deep learning tools like PyTorch is more than a way to facilitate the acquisition of new technical skills. It is also a step toward equip- ping a new generation of scientists, engineers, and practitioners from a wide range of disciplines with a working knowledge of the tools that will be the backbone of many software projects during the decades to come. To get the most out of this book, you need two things: Some experience programming in Python—We’re not going to pull any punches on that one: you’ll need to be up on Python data types, classes, floating-point num- bers, and the like. Willingness to dive in and get your hands dirty—It’ll be much easier for you to learn if you follow along with us. Deep learning is a huge space. In this book, we’ll be covering a tiny part of that space—specifically, using PyTorch for smaller-scope projects. Most of the motivating examples use image processing of 2D and 3D data sets. We focus on practical PyTorch, with the aim of covering enough ground to allow you to solve realistic problems with deep learning or explore new models as they pop up in research literature. A great resource for the latest publications related to deep learning research is the ArXiV public preprint repository, hosted at https://arxiv.org.1 1.3 Why PyTorch? As we’ve said, deep learning allows you to carry out a wide range of complicated tasks—such as performing machine translation, playing strategy games, and identify- ing objects in cluttered scenes—by exposing your model to illustrative examples. To do so in practice, you need tools that are flexible so that they can be adapted to your specific problem and efficient, to allow training to occur over large amounts of data in reasonable times. You also need the trained network to perform correctly in the pres- ence of uncertainty in the inputs. In this section, we take a look at some of the reasons why we decided to use PyTorch. PyTorch is easy to recommend because of its simplicity. Many researchers and prac- titioners find it easy to learn, use, extend, and debug. It’s Pythonic, and although (like any complicated domain) it has caveats and best practices, using the library generally feels familiar to developers who have used Python previously. For users who are familiar with NumPy arrays, the PyTorch Tensor class will be immediately familiar. PyTorch feels like NumPy, but with GPU acceleration and auto- matic computation of gradients, which makes it suitable for calculating backward pass data automatically starting from a forward expression. The Tensor API is such that the additional features of the class relevant to deep learning are unobtrusive; the user is mostly free to pretend that those features don’t exist until need for them arises. 1 We also recommed http://www.arxiv-sanity.com to help organize research papers of interest. 4 CHAPTER 1 Introducing deep learning and the PyTorch library A design driver for PyTorch is expressivity, allowing a developer to implement com- plicated models without undue complexity being imposed by the library.

    Introduction to Deep Learning Framework 1. Introduction 1.1. Commonly used frameworks The most commonly used frameworks for deep learning include Pytorch, Tensorflow, Keras, caffe, Apache MXnet, etc. PyTorch: open source machine learning library; developed by Facebook AI Rsearch Lab; based on the Torch library; supports Python and C++ interfaces. Tensorflow: open source software library dataflow and differentiable programming; developed by Google brain team; provides stable Python & C APIs. Keras: an open-source neural-network library written in Python; conceived to be an interface; capable of running on top of TensorFlow, Microsoft Cognitive Toolkit, R, Theano, or PlaidML. Caffe: open source under BSD licence; developed at University of California, Berkeley; written in C++ with a Python interface. Apache MXnet: an open-source deep learning software framework; supports a flexible programming model and multiple programming languages (including C++, Python, Java, Julia, Matlab, JavaScript, Go, R, Scala, Perl, and Wolfram Language.) 1.2. Pytorch 1.2.1 Data Tensor: the major computation unit in PyTorch. Tensor could be viewed as the extension of vector (one-dimensional) and matrix (two-dimensional), which could be defined with any dimension. Variable: a wrapper of tensor, which includes creator, value of variable (tensor), and gradient. This is the core of the automatic derivation in Pytorch, as it has the information of both the value and the creator, which is very important for current backward process. Parameter: a subset of variable 1.2.2. Functions: NNModules: NNModules (torch.nn) is a combination of parameters and functions, and could be interpreted as layers. There some common modules such as convolution layers, linear layers, pooling layers, dropout layers, etc.

  • Zero-Shot Text-To-Image Generation
    Zero-Shot Text-to-Image Generation Aditya Ramesh 1 Mikhail Pavlov 1 Gabriel Goh 1 Scott Gray 1 Chelsea Voss 1 Alec Radford 1 Mark Chen 1 Ilya Sutskever 1 Abstract Text-to-image generation has traditionally fo- cused on finding better modeling assumptions for training on a fixed dataset. These assumptions might involve complex architectures, auxiliary losses, or side information such as object part la- bels or segmentation masks supplied during train- ing. We describe a simple approach for this task based on a transformer that autoregressively mod- els the text and image tokens as a single stream of data. With sufficient data and scale, our approach is competitive with previous domain-specific mod- els when evaluated in a zero-shot fashion. Figure 1.

    Quantifying Deep Fake Generation and Detection Accuracy for a Variety of Newscast Settings. Quantifying Deep Fake Generation and Detection Accuracy for a Variety of Newscast Settings. A Project Report Presented to Dr. Chris Pollett Department of Computer Science San José State University In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Class CS 297 By Pratikkumar Prajapati May 2020 Quantifying Deep Fake Generation and Detection Accuracy for a Variety of Newscast Settings. ABSTRACT DeepFakes are fake videos synthesized using advanced deep-learning techniques. The fake videos are one of the biggest threats of our times. In this project, we attempt to detect DeepFakes using advanced deep- learning and other techniques. The whole project is two semesters long. This report is of the first semester. We begin with developing a Convolution Neural Network-based classifier to classify Devanagari characters. Then we implement various Autoencoders to generate fake Devanagari characters. We extend it to develop Generative Adversarial Networks to generate more realistic looking fake Devanagari characters. We explore a state-of-the-art model, DeepPrivacy, to generate fake human images by swapping faces. We modify the DeepPrivacy model and experiment with the new model to achieve a similar kind of results. The modified DeepPrivacy model can generate DeepFakes using face-swap. The generated fake images look like humans and have variations from the original set of images.
