Learn how to implement the encoder component of an autoencoder using Python, TensorFlow, and Keras in this comprehensive tutorial video. Explore the step-by-step process of building an Autoencoder class, including the constructor, _build and _build_encoder methods, and adding convolutional layers. Discover how to create the encoder input, implement a bottleneck, and understand the inner workings of the _build_encoder method. Follow along as the video demonstrates how to instantiate an autoencoder object and implement a summary method. Gain valuable insights into neural network architecture and deep learning techniques for sound generation and processing.
