Keras

High-level neural networks API


What is Keras?.

Keras is a high-level neural networks API, written in Python and capable of running on top of TensorFlow, CNTK, or Theano. Keras provides scikit-learn type API (written in Python) which help developers to quickly build neural networks without the mathematical aspect’s tensor algebra, numerical techniques and optimization methods. It was developed with a focus on enabling fast experimentation, it is compact, easier to debug and provides extensible flexibility.

  Pros:
  • Allows easy and fast prototyping (through user friendliness, modularity, and extensibility).
  • Supports both convolutional networks and recurrent networks, as well as combinations of the two.
  • Runs seamlessly on CPU and GPU.
  Cons:
  • Doesn’t provide as many functionalities as compared to other few technologies, and ensures less control over the network.
