By starting with a random noise image and performing gradient ascent on a target class, we can generate an image that the network will recognize as the target class. This idea was first presented in [1]; [2] extended this idea by suggesting several regularization techniques that can improve the quality of the generated image.
Concretely, let $I$ be an image and let $y$ be a target class. Let $s_y(I)$ be the score that a convolutional network assigns to the image $I$ for class $y$; note that these are raw unnormalized scores, not class probabilities. We wish to generate an image $I^*$ that achieves a high score for the class $y$ by solving the problem
$$ I^* = \arg\max_I s_y(I) + R(I) $$where $R$ is a (possibly implicit) regularizer. We can solve this optimization problem using gradient descent, computing gradients with respect to the generated image. We will use (explicit) L2 regularization of the form
$$ R(I) + \lambda \|I\|_2^2 $$and implicit regularization as suggested by [2] by peridically blurring the generated image. We can solve this problem using gradient ascent on the generated image.

In an attempt to understand the types of features that convolutional networks learn to recognize, a recent paper [1] attempts to reconstruct an image from its feature representation. We can easily implement this idea using image gradients from the pretrained network.
Concretely, given a image $I$, let $\phi_\ell(I)$ be the activations at layer $\ell$ of the convolutional network $\phi$. We wish to find an image $I^*$ with a similar feature representation as $I$ at layer $\ell$ of the network $\phi$ by solving the optimization problem
$$ I^* = \arg\min_{I'} \|\phi_\ell(I) - \phi_\ell(I')\|_2^2 + R(I') $$where $\|\cdot\|_2^2$ is the squared Euclidean norm. As above, $R$ is a (possibly implicit) regularizer. We can solve this optimization problem using gradient descent, computing gradients with respect to the generated image. We will use (explicit) L2 regularization of the form
$$ R(I') + \lambda \|I'\|_2^2 $$together with implicit regularization by periodically blurring the image, as recommended by [2].
Implement this method in the function below.

Reconstructing images using features from deeper layers of the network tends to give interesting results. In the cell below, try to reconstruct the best image you can by inverting the features after 7 layers of convolutions. You will need to play with the hyperparameters to try and get a good result.
HINT: If you read the paper by Mahendran and Vedaldi, you'll see that reconstructions from deep features tend not to look much like the original image, so you shouldn't expect the results to look like the reconstruction above. You should be able to get an image that shows some discernable structure within 1000 iterations.

In the summer of 2015, Google released a blog post describing a new method of generating images from neural networks, and they later released code to generate these images.
The idea is very simple. We pick some layer from the network, pass the starting image through the network to extract features at the chosen layer, set the gradient at that layer equal to the activations themselves, and then backpropagate to the image. This has the effect of modifying the image to amplify the activations at the chosen layer of the network.
For DeepDream we usually extract features from one of the convolutional layers, allowing us to generate images of any resolution.
We can implement this idea using our pretrained network. The results probably won't look as good as Google's since their network is much bigger, but we should still be able to generate some interesting images.
