Imitating Keras to Deepen understanding.

Kerasy

I want to deepen my understanding of deep learning by imitating the sophisticated neural networks API, Keras.

Installation

There are two ways to install Kerasy:

• Install Kerasy from PyPI (recommended):

  $ sudo pip install kerasy
  

• Alternatively: install Kerasy from the GitHub source:

  $ git clone https://github.com/keras-team/keras.git
  $ cd keras
  $ sudo python setup.py install
  

Why this name Kerasy

Kerasy means "Keras" + "-y".

• Keras is a high-level neural networks API, written in Python.
• "-y" is a native English suffix of adjectives meaning "characterized by or inclined to" the substance or action of the word or stem to which the suffix is attached. It often plays a role like "ish", "esque", or "like".

Keras is my favorite library, so I wanted to imitate it and add more algorithms for in particular bioinformatics (which is my major.)

Keras

Keras is a high-level neural networks API, written in Python and capable of running on top of TensorFlow, CNTK, or Theano. It was developed with a focus on enabling fast experimentation. Being able to go from idea to result with the least possible delay is key to doing good research.
