Where to find a reliable tutorial on "Strategies for training a model for image recognition"

Dear coder,

I am interested in a tutorial on how to setup layers for image recognition.

Background to this:
I have to pass +63 percent accuracy on recognize if a given image (150px | 150px) shows a cat or a dog. Running thru the provided tutorial-plan gave me information on how to setup the model, train it and how to use predict/evaluate but I have really no idea how to setup the layers to get a good result.

Can someone tell me where I can find tutorials/information about what I have to do (Strategies on building a stack of layer)?

Thank you!

Ahoi Thorsten,

sounds like you’re searching for a CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) Model & Architecture.

Interesting Codelab Tutorials:
Horse or Human (Python):

Optimising CNN’s (Python):

MNIST with TF.js (JavaScript)

Some, already setup, browser based playground(s), e.g for visualisation purpose:

https://cs.stanford.edu/people/karpathy/convnetjs/demo/mnist.html
(hmm, somehow i couldn’t find the tf.js playgrounds adhoc anymore …)

Maxpooled,
