This is because empirical research in economics is concentrated on the identification of causal relationships in parsimonious statistical models; whereas machine learning is oriented towards prediction and is generally uninterested in either causality or parsimony. That leaves a gap for students, academics, and professionals who lack a standard reference on machine learning for economics and finance.This book focuses on economic and financial problems with an empirical dimension, where machine learning methods may offer something of value. This includes coverage of a variety of discriminative deep learning models (DNNs, CNNs, LSTMs, and DQNs), generative machine learning models (GANs and VAEs), and tree-based models. It also covers the intersection of empirical methods in economics and machine learning, including regression analysis, natural language processing, and dimensionality reduction.TensorFlow offers a toolset that can be used to define and solve any graph-based model, including those commonly used in economics. This book is structured to teach through a sequence of complete examples, each framed in terms of a specific economic problem of interest or topic. This simplifies otherwise complicated concepts, enabling the reader to solve workhorse theoretical models in economics and finance using TensorFlow.What You'll LearnDefine, train, and evaluate machine learning models in TensorFlow 2Apply fundamental concepts in machine learning, such as deep learning and natural language processing, to economic and financial problemsSolve theoretical models in economicsWho This Book Is ForStudents, data scientists working in economics and finance, public and private sector economists, and academic social scientists 368 pp. Englisch.

While some of these technologies are complementary, such as Pandas, Scikit-Learn, and Numpy-others are competitors, such as PyTorch, Caffe, and Theano. This book clarifies the positions of deep learning and Tensorflow among their peers.You'll then work on supervised deep learning models to gain applied experience with the technology. A single-layer of multiple perceptrons will be used to build a shallow neural network before turning it into a deep neural network. After showing the structure of the ANNs, a real-life application will be created with Tensorflow 2.0 Keras API. Next, you'll work on data augmentation and batch normalization methods. Then, the Fashion MNIST dataset will be used to train a CNN. CIFAR10 and Imagenet pre-trained models will be loaded to create already advanced CNNs. Finally, move into theoretical applications and unsupervised learning with auto-encoders and reinforcement learning with tf-agent models. With this book, you'll delve into applied deep learning practical functions and build a wealth of knowledge about how to use TensorFlow effectively. What You'll Learn Compare competing technologies and see why TensorFlow is more popularGenerate text, image, or sound with GANsPredict the rating or preference a user will give to an itemSequence data with recurrent neural networks Who This Book Is For Data scientists and programmers new to the fields of deep learning and machine learning APIs. 316 pp. Englisch.
