How to Build a React Image Slider Component

Build a React Image Slider Component

Over the years, I have seen many developers struggle with building a simple image slider. It often feels like you have to choose between a heavy library or a buggy custom script. I have spent more than 8 years building React applications for various US-based clients. In my experience, the “perfect” slider depends entirely on … Read more >>

Compute Semantic Similarity Using KerasHub in Python

Compute Semantic Similarity Using KerasHub in Python

I remember the first time I tried to build a recommendation engine for a client in New York; the lexical matching was a total disaster. Switching to semantic similarity changed everything because the model finally understood that “the subway is late” and “train delays” meant the same thing. Set Up the Python Keras Environment Before … Read more >>

Sequence-to-Sequence Learning with Keras

Sequence-to-Sequence Learning with Keras

I have spent years building deep learning models, and one of the most fascinating challenges is teaching a machine to understand sequences. Whether it is translating languages or predicting stock trends, Sequence-to-Sequence (Seq2Seq) models are the backbone of modern AI. Addition might seem simple for a calculator, but for a neural network, it is a … Read more >>

How to Extract Text with BERT in Keras

Extract Text with BERT in Keras

I remember the first time I tried to build a question-answering system. I was using basic string matching, and the results were honestly a disaster for my project. Everything changed when I discovered BERT. Using BERT with Keras makes it incredibly easy to extract specific answers from massive amounts of text data. Set Up the … Read more >>

Named Entity Recognition Using Transformers in Keras

Named Entity Recognition Using Transformers in Keras

Named Entity Recognition (NER) is a vital part of natural language processing that helps us identify specific entities like names, locations, or dates in text. I have spent over four years developing Keras models, and I found that switching from traditional LSTMs to Transformers significantly boosted my model accuracy. In this tutorial, I will show … Read more >>

Data Parallel Training with KerasHub and tf.distribute

Data Parallel Training with KerasHub and tf.distribute

Scaling deep learning models used to be a daunting task that required complex configurations and deep infrastructure knowledge. During my four years as a Keras developer, I have found that KerasHub combined with tf.distribute simplifies this process immensely. In this tutorial, I will show you exactly how to implement data parallel training to speed up … Read more >>

How to Use Pre-trained Word Embeddings in Keras

Pre-trained Word Embeddings in Keras

In this tutorial, I will show you how to leverage pre-trained word embeddings in Keras to boost your NLP model performance. I have spent over four years building Keras models, and I found that using pre-trained weights is a game-changer for small datasets. It allows your model to start with a deep understanding of language … Read more >>

How to Convert a Python Dict to JSON

Convert a Python Dict to JSON

In my Python development journey, I have dealt with thousands of data conversions. One of the most common tasks I face is turning a Python dictionary into a JSON object. I remember the first time I had to do this; I was trying to send some user data from a Django backend to a React … Read more >>

React Hide Component Without Unmounting

React Hide Component Without Unmounting

I’ve often hit a wall with conditional rendering. The standard {show && <Component />} is great, but it has one major flaw: it kills your state. When you unmount a component, every piece of data in its useState or useRef hooks vanishes. This is a nightmare for things like multi-step tax forms or complex data … Read more >>
