This tutorial requires the following packages:

• Python version 3.5

  • Python 3.4 should be fine as well
  • likely Python 2.7 would be also fine, but who knows? :P

• numpy version 1.10 or later: http://www.numpy.org/

• scipy version 0.16 or later: http://www.scipy.org/

• matplotlib version 1.4 or later: http://matplotlib.org/

• pandas version 0.16 or later: http://pandas.pydata.org

• scikit-learn version 0.15 or later: http://scikit-learn.org

• keras version 2.0 or later: http://keras.io

• tensorflow version 1.0 or later: https://www.tensorflow.org

• ipython/jupyter version 4.0 or later, with notebook support

(Optional but recommended):

• pyyaml
• hdf5 and h5py (required if you use model saving/loading functions in keras)
• NVIDIA cuDNN if you have NVIDIA GPUs on your machines. https://developer.nvidia.com/rdp/cudnn-download

The easiest way to get (most) these is to use an all-in-one installer such as Anaconda from Continuum. These are available for multiple architectures.

I'm currently running this tutorial with Python 3 on Anaconda

!python --version

Python 3.5.2

In this repository, files to re-create virtual env with conda are provided for Linux and OSX systems, namely deep-learning.yml and deep-learning-osx.yml, respectively.

To re-create the virtual environments (on Linux, for example):

conda env create -f deep-learning.yml

For OSX, just change the filename, accordingly.

To date tensorflow comes in two different packages, namely tensorflow and tensorflow-gpu, whether you want to install the framework with CPU-only or GPU support, respectively.

For this reason, tensorflow has not been included in the conda envs and has to be installed separately.

pip install tensorflow

pip install tensorflow-gpu

Note: NVIDIA Drivers and CuDNN must be installed and configured before hand. Please refer to the official Tensorflow documentation for further details.

All the code provided+ in this tutorial can run even if tensorflow is not installed, and so using theano as the (default) backend!

This is exactly the power of Keras!

Therefore, installing tensorflow is not stricly required!

+: Apart from the 1.2 Introduction to Tensorflow tutorial, of course.

By default, Keras is configured with theano as backend.

If you want to use tensorflow instead, these are the simple steps to follow:

1. Create the keras.json (if it does not exist):

touch $HOME/.keras/keras.json

2. Copy the following content into the file:

{
    "epsilon": 1e-07,
    "backend": "tensorflow",
    "floatx": "float32",
    "image_data_format": "channels_last"
}

3. Verify it is properly configured:

!cat ~/.keras/keras.json

{
	"epsilon": 1e-07,
	"backend": "tensorflow",
	"floatx": "float32",
	"image_data_format": "channels_last"
}
