Description
Keras is an open-source library of neural network components written in Python. Keras is capable of running atop TensorFlow, Theano, PlaidML and others. The library was developed to be modular and user-friendly. Keras enables fast experimentation through a high level, user-friendly, modular and extensible API. Keras can also be run on both CPU and GPU. Keras was developed and is maintained by Francois Chollet and is part of the TensorFlow core, which makes it TensorFlow preferred high-level API.

Comprised of a library of commonly used machine learning components including objectives, activation functions, and optimizers, Keras' open-source platform also offers support for recurrent and convolutional neural networks. Additionally, Keras offers mobile platform development for users intending to implement deep learning models on smartphones, both iOS and Android.

Keras is essentially an API designed for machine learning and deep learning engineers and follows best practices for reducing cognitive load. Keras offers consistent & simple APIs, minimizes the number of user actions required for common use cases, and provides clear & actionable error messages. It also supports extensive documentation and developer guides.

It is made user-friendly, extensible, and modular for facilitating faster experimentation with deep neural networks. It not only supports Convolutional Networks and Recurrent Networks individually but also their combination

Why do we need Machine Learning libraries such as Keras?

Machine learning uses a variety of math models and calculations to answer specific questions about data. Examples of machine learning in action include detecting spam emails, determining certain objects using computer vision, recognizing speech, recommending products, and even predicting commodities values years in the future.

The calculations implicit in machine learning and deep learning are very complicated to set up to ensure correct output (answers). A variety of machine learning libraries have emerged to help navigate these complexities. With these options, new folks can start getting into data science easily. Some of the most popular machine learning libraries include:

TensorFlow

Keras

sciKit learn

Theano

Microsoft Cognitive Toolkit (CNTK)

Uplatz provides this comprehensive course on Deep Learning with Keras. This Keras course will help you implement deep learning in Python, preprocess your data, model, build, evaluate and optimize neural networks. The Keras training will teach you how to use Keras, a neural network API written in Python. This Keras course will show how the full implementation is done in code using Keras and Python. You will learn how to organize data for training, build and train an artificial neural network from scratch, build and fine-tune convolutional neural networks (CNNs), implement fine-tuning and transfer learning, deploy models using both front-end and back-end deployment techniques.
