Python Artificial Intelligence Projects for Beginners

Build smart applications by implementing real-world artificial intelligence projects

Key Features:

• Explore a variety of AI projects with Python
• Get well-versed with different types of neural networks and popular deep learning algorithms
• Leverage popular Python deep learning libraries for your AI projects

Book Description:

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the newest technology that's being employed among varied businesses, industries, and sectors. Python Artificial Intelligence Projects for Beginners demonstrates AI projects in Python, covering modern techniques that make up the world of Artificial Intelligence.

This book begins with helping you to build your first prediction model using the popular Python library, scikit-learn. You will understand how to build a classifier using an effective machine learning technique, random forest, and decision trees. With exciting projects on predicting bird species, analyzing student performance data, song genre identification, and spam detection, you will learn the fundamentals and various algorithms and techniques that foster the development of these smart applications. In the concluding chapters, you will also understand deep learning and neural network mechanisms through these projects with the help of the Keras library.

By the end of this book, you will be confident in building your own AI projects with Python and be ready to take on more advanced projects as you progress

What You Will Learn:

• Build a prediction model using decision trees and random forest
• Use neural networks, decision trees, and random forests for classification
• Detect YouTube comment spam with a bag-of-words and random forests
• Identify handwritten mathematical symbols with convolutional neural networks
• Revise the bird species identifier to use images
• Learn to detect positive and negative sentiment in user reviews
