PyTorch is a machine learning framework used in a wide array of popular applications, including Tesla’s Autopilot and Pyro, Uber’s probabilistic modeling engine.

This course is an introduction to image classification using PyTorch’s computer vision models for training and tuning your own model. You’ll start with the fundamental concepts of applying machine learning and its applications to image classification before exploring the process of training your AI model. You’ll prepare data for intake by the computer vision model with image pre-processing, set up pipelines for training your model, and fine-tune the variables to improve predictive performance. You’ll finish by deploying the image classification model by converting to ONNX format and serving it via REST API.

By the end of this course, you’ll be able to build and deploy your own image classification models from scratch.

Getting Started with Image Classification with PyTorch

We can use the TensorFlow model for inference on our datasets.


## Utility functions
First, we need to define the `softmax` utility function.



import tensorflow as tf
import numpy as np
import os

os.environ['TF_CPP_MIN_LOG_LEVEL'] = '2'


def softmax(vec):
    exponential = np.exp(vec)
    probabilities = exponential / np.sum(exponential)
    return probabilities


# test softmax function
dummy_vec = np.array([1.5630065, -0.24305986, -0.08382231, -0.4424621])
print('The output probabilities after softmax is:', softmax(dummy_vec))

> **Note:** The `softmax` utility function will convert the model prediction into probabilities that sum to 1.

## Load checkpoint

After that, load the TensorFlow model and set the `trainable` attribute to `False`.

> **Note:** This will move all the layer’s weights from trainable to non-trainable, making them run in inference mode.
