# TensorFlow Neural Networks

Build and train neural networks using TensorFlow's high-level Keras API and low-level custom implementations. This skill covers everything from simple sequential models to complex custom architectures with multiple outputs, custom layers, and advanced training techniques.

## Sequential Models with Keras

The Sequential API provides the simplest way to build neural networks by stacking layers linearly.

### Basic Image Classification

```python
import tensorflow as tf
from tensorflow import keras
import numpy as np

# Load MNIST dataset
(x_train, y_train), (x_test, y_test) = keras.datasets.mnist.load_data()

# Preprocess data
x_train = x_train.astype('float32') / 255.0
x_test = x_test.astype('float32') / 255.0
x_train = x_train.reshape(-1, 28 * 28)
x_test = x_test.reshape(-1, 28 * 28)

# Build Sequential model
model = keras.Sequential([
    keras.layers.Dense(128, activation='relu', input_shape=(784,)),
    keras.layers.Dropout(0.2),
    keras.layers.Dense(64, activation='relu'),
    keras.layers.Dropout(0.2),
    keras.layers.Dense(10, activation='softmax')
])

# Compile model
model.compile(
    optimizer='adam',
    loss='sparse_categorical_crossentropy',
    metrics=['accuracy']
)

# Display model architecture
model.summary()

# Train model
history = model.fit(
    x_train, y_train,
    batch_size=32,
    epochs=5,
    validation_split=0.2,
    verbose=1
)

# Evaluate model
test_loss, test_accuracy = model.evaluate(x_test, y_test, verbose=0)
print(f"Test accuracy: {test_accuracy:.4f}")

# Make predictions
predictions = model.predict(x_test[:5])
predicted_classes = np.argmax(predictions, axis=1)
print(f"Predicted classes: {predicted_classes}")
print(f"True classes: {y_test[:5]}")

# Save model
model.save('mnist_model.h5')

# Load model
loaded_model = keras.models.load_model('mnist_model.h5')
```

### Convolutional Neural Network
