Setup

Uses python packages keras with a theano back-end. I implemented this in Python 2.7. Model weights used from Keras model of the 16-layer network used by the VGG team in the ILSVRC-2014 competition. Download can be found here: link. Just make sure it's downloaded in the appropriate sub-directory. Also uses Tkinter to open file image for prediction.
