Ubuntu16.04 under Keras Installation

Installation

Before installing Keras, install one of its backend engines:tensorflow, Theano, or CNTK. We recommend the TensorFlow backend.

• TensorFlow installation instructions. (installed)
• Theano installation instructions.
• CNTK installation instructions.

Also consider installing the following optional dependencies:

• CuDNN (Recommended if you plan on the running Keras on GPU). (installed)
• HDF5 and h5py (required if you plan on saving Keras models to disk). (sudo pip install h5py)
• Graphviz and Pydot (used by visualization utilities to plot model graphs). (sudo apt install python-pydot python-pydot-ng graphviz )

Then, you can install Keras itself. There is ways to install Keras:

• Install Keras from PyPI (recommended):

sudo pip install keras

If you were using a virtualenv, you could want to avoid using sudo: (Installed in the TensorFlow virtual environment created)

pip install keras
