Welcome to the Image Recognition with TensorFlow guide! This tutorial will walk you through building a basic image classification model using TensorFlow. Whether you're a beginner or looking to deepen your understanding, this content is designed to help.

Key Concepts

  • TensorFlow is an open-source machine learning framework developed by Google.
  • Image recognition involves training models to identify objects or patterns in images.
  • 🧠 Use Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) for effective feature extraction.

Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Install TensorFlow:
    pip install tensorflow  
    
  2. Load and preprocess data:
    Use the MNIST dataset for training.
  3. Build the model:
    model = tf.keras.Sequential([  
        tf.keras.layers.Conv2D(32, (3,3), activation='relu', input_shape=(28, 28, 1)),  
        tf.keras.layers.MaxPooling2D(2, 2),  
        tf.keras.layers.Flatten(),  
        tf.keras.layers.Dense(128, activation='relu'),  
        tf.keras.layers.Dense(10, activation='softmax')  
    ])  
    
  4. Train and evaluate:
    model.compile(optimizer='adam', loss='sparse_categorical_crossentropy', metrics=['accuracy'])  
    model.fit(train_images, train_labels, epochs=5)
