Prepare PyPI release

My reading of regularizers is that they cannot be reused, but it doesn't actually fail in any way and seems like it results in only regularizing the last layer. Having an exception prevent this would probably improve the ergonomics.

+# On Github Issues and Pull Requests
+
+Found a bug? Have a new feature to suggest? Want to contribute changes to the codebase? Make sure to read this first.
+
+## Bug reporting
+
+Your code doesn't work, and you have determined that the issue lies with Keras? Follow these steps to report a bug.
+
+1. Your bug may already be fixed. Make sure to update to the current Keras master branch, as well as the latest Theano/TensorFlow master branch.
+To easily update Theano: `pip install git+git://github.com/Theano/Theano.git --upgrade`
+
+2. Search for similar issues. Make sure to delete `is:open` on the issue search to find solved tickets as well. It's possible somebody has encountered this bug already. Also remember to check out Keras' [FAQ](http://keras.io/faq/). Still having a problem? Open an issue on Github to let us know.
+
+3. Make sure you provide us with useful information about your configuration: what OS are you using? What Keras backend are you using? Are you running on GPU? If so, what is your version of Cuda, of cuDNN? What is your GPU?
+
+4. Provide us with a script to reproduce the issue. This script should be runnable as-is and should not require external data download (use randomly generated data if you need to run a model on some test data). We recommend that you use Github Gists to post your code. Any issue that cannot be reproduced is likely to be closed.
+
+5. If possible, take a stab at fixing the bug yourself --if you can!
+
+The more information you provide, the easier it is for us to validate that there is a bug and the faster we'll be able to take action. If you want your issue to be resolved quickly, following the steps above is crucial.
+
+
+## Requesting a Feature
+
+You can also use Github issues to request features you would like to see in Keras, or changes in the Keras API.
+
+1. Provide a clear and detailed explanation of the feature you want and why it's important to add. Keep in mind that we want features that will be useful to the majority of our users and not just a small subset. If you're just targeting a minority of users, consider writing an add-on library for Keras. It is crucial for Keras to avoid bloating the API and codebase.
+
+2. Provide code snippets demonstrating the API you have in mind and illustrating the use cases of your feature. Of course, you don't need to write any real code at this point!
+
+3. After discussing the feature you may choose to attempt a Pull Request. If you're at all able, start writing some code. We always have more work to do than time to do it. If you can write some code then that will speed the process along.
+
+## Pull Requests
+
+We love pull requests. Here's a quick guide:
+
+1. If your PR introduces a change in functionality, make sure you start by opening an issue to discuss whether the change should be made, and how to handle it. This will save you from having your PR closed down the road! Of course, if your PR is a simple bug fix, you don't need to do that.
+
+2. Write the code. This is the hard part!
+
+3. Make sure any new function or class you introduce has proper docstrings. Make sure any code you touch still has up-to-date docstrings and documentation.
+
+4. Write tests. Your code should have full unit test coverage. If you want to see your PR merged promptly, this is crucial.
+
+5. Run our test suite locally. It's easy: from the Keras folder, simply run: `py.test tests/`.
+  - You will need to install `pytest`, `coveralls`, `pytest-cov`, `pytest-xdist`: `pip install pytest pytest-cov python-coveralls pytest-xdist pep8 pytest-pep8`
+
+6. Make sure all tests are passing:
+  - with the Theano backend, on Python 2.7 and Python 3.5
+  - with the TensorFlow backend, on Python 2.7
+
+7. We use PEP8 syntax conventions, but we aren't dogmatic when it comes to line length. Make sure your lines stay reasonably sized, though. To make your life easier, we recommend running a PEP8 linter:
+  - Install PEP8 packages: `pip install pep8 pytest-pep8 autopep8`
+  - Run a standalone PEP8 check: `py.test --pep8 -m pep8`
+  - You can automatically fix some PEP8 error by running: `autopep8 -i --select <errors> <FILENAME>` for example: `autopep8 -i --select E128 tests/keras/backend/test_backends.py`
+
+8. When committing, use appropriate, descriptive commit messages. Make sure that your branch history is not a string of "bug fix", "fix", "oops", etc. When submitting your PR, squash your commits into a single commit with an appropriate commit message, to make sure the project history stays clean and readable. See ['rebase and squash'](http://rebaseandsqua.sh/) for technical help on how to squash your commits.
+
+9. Update the documentation. If introducing new functionality, make sure you include code snippets demonstrating the usage of your new feature.
+
+10. Submit your PR. If your changes have been approved in a previous discussion, and if you have complete (and passing) unit tests, your PR is likely to be merged promptly. Otherwise, well...
+
+## Adding new examples
+
+Even if you don't contribute to the Keras source code, if you have an application of Keras that is concise and powerful, please consider adding it to our collection of examples. [Existing examples](https://github.com/fchollet/keras/tree/master/examples) show idiomatic Keras code: make sure to keep your own script in the same spirit.

 ## You have just found Keras.
 
-Keras is a minimalist, highly modular neural network library in the spirit of Torch, written in Python / Theano so as not to have to deal with the dearth of ecosystem in Lua. It was developed with a focus on enabling fast experimentation. Being able to go from idea to result with the least possible delay is key to doing good research.

-- supports both convolutional networks (for vision) and recurrent networks (for sequence data). As well as combinations of the two. 
-- runs seamlessly on the CPU and the GPU.

 ## Guiding principles
 
-- __Modularity.__ A model is understood as a sequence of standalone, fully-configurable modules that can be plugged together with as little restrictions as possible. In particular, neural layers, cost functions, optimizers, initialization schemes, activation functions and dropout are all standalone modules that you can combine to create new models.

In particular, neural layers, cost functions, optimizers, initialization schemes, activation functions, regularization schemes are all standalone modules that you can combine to create new models.
 
-- __Minimalism.__ Each module should be kept short and simple (<100 lines of code). Every piece of code should be transparent upon first reading. No black magic: it hurts iteration speed and ability to innovate.

Models are described in Python code, which is compact, easier to debug, benefits from syntax highlighting, and most of all, allows for ease of extensibility. See for yourself with the examples below.

-## Examples
 
-### Multilayer Perceptron (MLP):
+------------------
+
+
+## Getting started: 30 seconds to Keras
+
+The core data structure of Keras is a __model__, a way to organize layers. The main type of model is the [`Sequential`](http://keras.io/getting-started/sequential-model-guide) model, a linear stack of layers. For more complex architectures, you should use the [Keras functional API](http://keras.io/getting-started/functional-api-guide).
+
+Here's the `Sequential` model:
 
 ```python
 from keras.models import Sequential
-from keras.layers.core import Dense, Dropout, Activation
+
+model = Sequential()
+```
+
+Stacking layers is as easy as `.add()`:
+
+```python
+from keras.layers import Dense, Activation
+
+model.add(Dense(output_dim=64, input_dim=100))
+model.add(Activation("relu"))
+model.add(Dense(output_dim=10))
+model.add(Activation("softmax"))
+```
+
+Once your model looks good, configure its learning process with `.compile()`:
+```python
+model.compile(loss='categorical_crossentropy', optimizer='sgd', metrics=['accuracy'])
+```
+
+If you need to, you can further configure your optimizer. A core principle of Keras is to make things reasonably simple, while allowing the user to be fully in control when they need to (the ultimate control being the easy extensibility of the source code).
+```python
 from keras.optimizers import SGD
-
-model = Sequential()
-model.add(Dense(20, 64, init='uniform'))
-model.add(Activation('tanh'))
-model.add(Dropout(0.5))
-model.add(Dense(64, 64, init='uniform'))
-model.add(Activation('tanh'))
-model.add(Dropout(0.5))
-model.add(Dense(64, 2, init='uniform'))
-model.add(Activation('softmax'))
-
-sgd = SGD(lr=0.1, decay=1e-6, momentum=0.9, nesterov=True)
-model.compile(loss='mean_squared_error', optimizer=sgd)
-
-model.fit(X_train, y_train, nb_epoch=20, batch_size=16)
-score = model.evaluate(X_test, y_test, batch_size=16)
+model.compile(loss='categorical_crossentropy', optimizer=SGD(lr=0.01, momentum=0.9, nesterov=True))
 ```
 
-### Alternative implementation of MLP:
-
+You can now iterate on your training data in batches:
 ```python
-model = Sequential()
-model.add(Dense(20, 64, init='uniform', activation='tanh'))
-model.add(Dropout(0.5))
-model.add(Dense(64, 64, init='uniform', activation='tanh'))
-model.add(Dropout(0.5))
-model.add(Dense(64, 2, init='uniform', activation='softmax'))
-
-sgd = SGD(lr=0.1, decay=1e-6, momentum=0.9, nesterov=True)
-model.compile(loss='mean_squared_error', optimizer=sgd)
+model.fit(X_train, Y_train, nb_epoch=5, batch_size=32)
 ```
 
-### VGG-like convnet:
-
+Alternatively, you can feed batches to your model manually:
 ```python
-from keras.models import Sequential
-from keras.layers.core import Dense, Dropout, Activation, Flatten
-from keras.layers.convolutional import Convolution2D, MaxPooling2D
-from keras.optimizers import SGD
-
-model = Sequential()
-model.add(Convolution2D(32, 3, 3, 3, border_mode='full')) 
-model.add(Activation('relu'))
-model.add(Convolution2D(32, 32, 3, 3))
-model.add(Activation('relu'))
-model.add(MaxPooling2D(poolsize=(2, 2)))
-model.add(Dropout(0.25))
-
-model.add(Convolution2D(64, 32, 3, 3, border_mode='full')) 
-model.add(Activation('relu'))
-model.add(Convolution2D(64, 64, 3, 3)) 
-model.add(Activation('relu'))
-model.add(MaxPooling2D(poolsize=(2, 2)))
-model.add(Dropout(0.25))
-
-model.add(Flatten())
-model.add(Dense(64*8*8, 256))
-model.add(Activation('relu'))
-model.add(Dropout(0.5))
-
-model.add(Dense(256, 10))
-model.add(Activation('softmax'))
-
-sgd = SGD(lr=0.1, decay=1e-6, momentum=0.9, nesterov=True)
-model.compile(loss='categorical_crossentropy', optimizer=sgd)
-
-model.fit(X_train, Y_train, batch_size=32, nb_epoch=1)
-
+model.train_on_batch(X_batch, Y_batch)
 ```
 
-### Sequence classification with LSTM:
-
+Evaluate your performance in one line:
 ```python
-from keras.models import Sequential
-from keras.layers.core import Dense, Dropout, Activation
-from keras.layers.embeddings import Embedding
-from keras.layers.recurrent import LSTM
-
-model = Sequential()
-model.add(Embedding(max_features, 256))
-model.add(LSTM(256, 128, activation='sigmoid', inner_activation='hard_sigmoid'))
-model.add(Dropout(0.5))
-model.add(Dense(128, 1))
-model.add(Activation('sigmoid'))
-
-model.compile(loss='binary_crossentropy', optimizer='rmsprop')
-
-model.fit(X_train, Y_train, batch_size=16, nb_epoch=10)
-score = model.evaluate(X_test, Y_test, batch_size=16)
+loss_and_metrics = model.evaluate(X_test, Y_test, batch_size=32)
 ```
 
-### Architecture for learning image captions with a convnet and a Gated Recurrent Unit:
-(word-level embedding, caption of maximum length 16 words).
-
-Note that getting this to actually "work" will require using a bigger convnet, initialized with pre-trained weights.
-Displaying readable results will also require an embedding decoder.
-
+Or generate predictions on new data:
 ```python
-max_caption_len = 16
-
-model = Sequential()
-model.add(Convolution2D(32, 3, 3, 3, border_mode='full')) 
-model.add(Activation('relu'))
-model.add(Convolution2D(32, 32, 3, 3))
-model.add(Activation('relu'))
-model.add(MaxPooling2D(poolsize=(2, 2)))
-
-model.add(Convolution2D(64, 32, 3, 3, border_mode='full')) 
-model.add(Activation('relu'))
-model.add(Convolution2D(64, 64, 3, 3)) 
-model.add(Activation('relu'))
-model.add(MaxPooling2D(poolsize=(2, 2)))
-
-model.add(Convolution2D(128, 64, 3, 3, border_mode='full')) 
-model.add(Activation('relu'))
-model.add(Convolution2D(128, 128, 3, 3)) 
-model.add(Activation('relu'))
-model.add(MaxPooling2D(poolsize=(2, 2)))
-
-model.add(Flatten())
-model.add(Dense(128*4*4, 256))
-model.add(Activation('relu'))
-model.add(Dropout(0.5))
-
-model.add(Repeat(max_caption_len)) 
-# the GRU below returns sequences of max_caption_len vectors of size 256 (our word embedding size)
-model.add(GRU(256, 256, return_sequences=True))
-
-model.compile(loss='mean_squared_error', optimizer='rmsprop')
-
-# "images" is a numpy array of shape (nb_samples, nb_channels=3, width, height) 
-# "captions" is a numpy array of shape (nb_samples, max_caption_len=16, embedding_dim=256)
-# captions are supposed already embedded (dense vectors).
-model.fit(images, captions, batch_size=16, nb_epoch=100)
-    
+classes = model.predict_classes(X_test, batch_size=32)
+proba = model.predict_proba(X_test, batch_size=32)
 ```
 
-In the examples folder, you will find example models for real datasets:
-- CIFAR10 small images classification: Convnet with realtime data augmentation
-- IMDB movie review sentiment classification: LSTM over sequences of words
-- Reuters newswires topic classification: Multilayer Perceptron
-- MNIST handwritten digits classification: Multilayer Perceptron
+Building a question answering system, an image classification model, a Neural Turing Machine, a word2vec embedder or any other model is just as fast. The ideas behind deep learning are simple, so why should their implementation be painful?

 ## Installation
 
 Keras uses the following dependencies:
 
 - numpy, scipy
-
-- Theano
-    - See installation instructions: http://deeplearning.net/software/theano/install.html#install
-
+- pyyaml
 - HDF5 and h5py (optional, required if you use model saving/loading functions)
-
 - Optional but recommended if you use CNNs: cuDNN.
 
-Once you have the dependencies installed, cd to the Keras folder and run the install command:
-```
+
+*When using the TensorFlow backend:*
+
+- TensorFlow
+    - [See installation instructions](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow#download-and-setup).
+
+*When using the Theano backend:*
+
+- Theano
+    - [See installation instructions](http://deeplearning.net/software/theano/install.html#install).

 ## Why this name, Keras?
 
 Keras (κέρας) means _horn_ in Greek. It is a reference to a literary image from ancient Greek and Latin literature, first found in the _Odyssey_, where dream spirits (_Oneiroi_, singular _Oneiros_) are divided between those who deceive men with false visions, who arrive to Earth through a gate of ivory, and those who announce a future that will come to pass, who arrive through a gate of horn. It's a play on the words κέρας (horn) / κραίνω (fulfill), and ἐλέφας (ivory) / ἐλεφαίρομαι (deceive).
 
-Keras was developed as part of the research effort of project ONEIROS (Open-ended Neuro-Electronic Intelligent Robot Operating System).

Two gates there are that give passage to fleeting Oneiroi; one is made of horn, one of ivory. The Oneiroi that pass through sawn ivory are deceitful, bearing a message that will not be fulfilled; those that come out through polished horn have truth behind them, to be accomplished for men who see them."_ Homer, Odyssey 19. 562 ff (Shewring translation).

+# Using Keras via Docker
+
+This directory contains `Dockerfile` to make it easy to get up and running with
+Keras via [Docker](http://www.docker.com/).
+
+## Installing Docker
+
+General installation instructions are
+[on the Docker site](https://docs.docker.com/installation/), but we give some
+quick links here:
+
+* [OSX](https://docs.docker.com/installation/mac/): [docker toolbox](https://www.docker.com/toolbox)
+* [ubuntu](https://docs.docker.com/installation/ubuntulinux/)
+
+## Running the container
+
+We are using `Makefile` to simplify docker commands within make commands.
+
+Build the container and start a jupyter notebook
+
+    $ make notebook
+
+Build the container and start an iPython shell
+
+    $ make ipython
+
+Build the container and start a bash
+
+    $ make bash
+
+For GPU support install NVidia drivers (ideally latest) and
+[nvidia-docker](https://github.com/NVIDIA/nvidia-docker). Run using
+
+    $ make notebook GPU=0 # or [ipython, bash]
+
+Switch between Theano and TensorFlow
+
+    $ make notebook BACKEND=theano
+    $ make notebook BACKEND=tensorflow
+
+Mount a volume for external data sets
+
+    $ make DATA=~/mydata
+
+Prints all make tasks
+
+    $ make help
+
+You can change Theano parameters by editing `/docker/theanorc`.
+
+
+Note: If you would have a problem running nvidia-docker you may try the old way
+we have used. But it is not recommended. If you find a bug in the nvidia-docker report
+it there please and try using the nvidia-docker as described above.

-# Keras: Theano-based Deep Learning library
-
-## Overview
-
-Keras is a minimalist, highly modular neural network library in the spirit of Torch, written in Python, that uses [Theano](http://deeplearning.net/software/theano/) under the hood for optimized tensor manipulation on GPU and CPU. It was developed with a focus on enabling fast experimentation. 
-
-Use Keras if you need a deep learning library that:
-
-- allows for easy and fast prototyping (through total modularity, minimalism, and extensibility).
-- supports both __convolutional networks__ and __recurrent networks__ (LSTM, GRU, etc). As well as combinations of the two. 
-- runs seamlessly on the CPU and the GPU.
-
-## Guiding principles
-
-- __Modularity.__ A model is understood as a sequence or a graph of standalone, fully-configurable modules that can be plugged together with as little restrictions as possible. In particular, neural layers, cost functions, optimizers, initialization schemes, activation functions, regularization schemes are all standalone modules that you can combine to create new models.
-
-- __Minimalism.__ Each module should be kept short and simple (<100 lines of code). Every piece of code should be transparent upon first reading. No black magic: it hurts iteration speed and ability to innovate.
-
-- __Easy extensibility.__ New modules are dead simple to add (as new classes/functions), and existing modules provide ample examples. To be able to easily create new modules allows for total expressiveness, making Keras suitable for adavanced research.
-
-- __Work with Python__. No separate models configuration files in a declarative format (like in Caffe or PyLearn2). Models are described in Python code, which is compact, easier to debug, and allows for ease of extensibility.
-
-## Code
-
-Find the code on Github: [fchollet/keras](https://github.com/fchollet/keras).
-
-## License
-
-Keras is licensed under the [MIT license](http://opensource.org/licenses/MIT). 
-
-## Getting started: 30 seconds to Keras
-
-The core datastructure of Keras is a __model__, a way to organize layers. There are two types of models: [`Sequential`](/models/#sequential) and [`Graph`](/models/#graph).
-
-Here's the `Sequential` model (a linear pile of layers):
-
-```python
-from keras.models import Sequential
-
-model = Sequential()
-```
-
-Stacking layers is as easy as `.add()`:
-
-```python
-from keras.layers.core import Dense, Activation
-
-model.add(Dense(input_dim=100, output_dim=64, init="glorot_uniform"))
-model.add(Activation("relu"))
-model.add(Dense(input_dim=64, output_dim=10, init="glorot_uniform"))
-model.add(Activation("softmax"))
-```
-
-Once your model looks good, configure its learning process with `.compile()`:
-```python
-model.compile(loss='categorical_crossentropy', optimizer='sgd')
-```
-
-If you need to, you can further configure your optimizer. A core principle of Keras is make things things reasonably simple, while allowing the user to be fully in control when they need to (the ultimate control being the easy extensibility of the source code).
-```python
-from keras.optimizers import SGD
-model.compile(loss='categorical_crossentropy', optimizer=SGD(lr=0.01, momentum=0.9, nesterov=True))
-```
-
-You can now iterate on your training data in batches:
-```python
-model.fit(X_train, Y_train, nb_epoch=5, batch_size=32)
-```
-
-Alternatively, you can feed batches to your model manually:
-```python
-model.train_on_batch(X_batch, Y_batch)
-```
-
-Evaluate your performance in one line:
-```python
-objective_score = model.evaluate(X_test, Y_test, batch_size=32)
-```
-
-Or generate predictions on new data:
-```python
-classes = model.predict_classes(X_test, batch_size=32)
-proba = model.predict_proba(X_test, batch_size=32)
-```
-
-Building a network of LSTMs, a deep CNN, a Neural Turing Machine, a word2vec embedder or any other model is just as fast. The ideas behind deep learning are simple, so why should their implementation be painful?
-
-Have a look at the [examples](examples.md).
-
-## Installation
-
-Keras uses the following dependencies:
-
-- __numpy__, __scipy__
-- __Theano__
-    - See [installation instructions](http://deeplearning.net/software/theano/install.html#install).
-- __HDF5__ and __h5py__ (optional, required if you use model saving/loading functions)
-- Optional but recommended if you use CNNs: __cuDNN__.
-
-Once you have the dependencies installed, clone the repo:
-```bash
-git clone https://github.com/fchollet/keras.git
-```
-Go to the Keras folder and run the install command:
-```bash
-cd keras
-sudo python setup.py install
-```
-
-## Support
-
-You can ask questions and join the development discussion on the [Keras Google group](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/keras-users).
-
-## Contribution Guidelines
-
-Keras welcomes all contributions from the community. 
-
-- Keep a pragmatic mindset and avoid bloat. Only add to the source if that is the only path forward.
-- New features should be documented. Make sure you update the documentation along with your Pull Request.
-- The documentation for every new feature should include a usage example in the form of a code snippet. 
-- All changes should be tested. Make sure any new feature you add has a corresponding unit test.
-- Even if you don't contribute to the Keras source code, if you have an application of Keras that is concise and powerful, please consider adding it to our collection of [examples](https://github.com/fchollet/keras/tree/master/examples).

-## Why this name, Keras?
-
-Keras (κέρας) means _horn_ in Greek. It is a reference to a literary image from ancient Greek and Latin literature, first found in the _Odyssey_, where dream spirits (_Oneiroi_, singular _Oneiros_) are divided between those who deceive men with false visions, who arrive to Earth through a gate of ivory, and those who announce a future that will come to pass, who arrive through a gate of horn. It's a play on the words κέρας (horn) / κραίνω (fulfill), and ἐλέφας (ivory) / ἐλεφαίρομαι (deceive).
-
-Keras was developed as part of the research effort of project __ONEIROS__ (*Open-ended Neuro-Electronic Intelligent Robot Operating System*).
-
-> _"Oneiroi are beyond our unravelling --who can be sure what tale they tell? Not all that men look for comes to pass. Two gates there are that give passage to fleeting Oneiroi; one is made of horn, one of ivory. The Oneiroi that pass through sawn ivory are deceitful, bearing a message that will not be fulfilled; those that come out through polished horn have truth behind them, to be accomplished for men who see them."_ 
-
-> -- Homer, Odyssey 19. 562 ff (Shewring translation).

-## Usage of initializations
-
-Initializations define the probability distribution used to set the initial random weights of Keras layers.
-
-The keyword arguments used for passing initializations to layers will depend on the layer. Usually it is simply `init`:
-
-```python
-model.add(Dense(64, 64, init='uniform'))
-```
-
-## Available initializations
-
-- __uniform__
-- __lecun_uniform__: Uniform initialization scaled by the square root of the number of inputs (LeCun 98).
-- __normal__
-- __identity__: Use with square 2D layers (`shape[0] == shape[1]`).
-- __orthogonal__: Use with square 2D layers (`shape[0] == shape[1]`).
-- __zero__
-- __glorot_normal__: Gaussian initialization scaled by fan_in + fan_out (Glorot 2010)
-- __glorot_uniform__
-- __he_normal__: Gaussian initialization scaled by fan_in (He et al., 2014)

-## Usage of optimizers
-
-An optimizer is one of the two arguments required for compiling a Keras model:

+# Applications
+
+Keras Applications are deep learning models that are made available alongside pre-trained weights.
+These models can be used for prediction, feature extraction, and fine-tuning.
+
+Weights are downloaded automatically when instantiating a model. They are stored at `~/.keras/models/`.
+
+## Available models
+
+Models for image classification with weights trained on ImageNet:
+
+- [VGG16](#vgg16)
+- [VGG19](#vgg19)
+- [ResNet50](#resnet50)
+- [InceptionV3](#inceptionv3)
+
+All of these architectures are compatible with both TensorFlow and Theano, and upon instantiation the models will be built according to the image dimension ordering set in your Keras configuration file at `~/.keras/keras.json`. For instance, if you have set `image_dim_ordering=tf`, then any model loaded from this repository will get built according to the TensorFlow dimension ordering convention, "Width-Height-Depth".

+# Keras backends
+
+## What is a "backend"?
+
+Keras is a model-level library, providing high-level building blocks for developing deep learning models. It does not handle itself low-level operations such as tensor products, convolutions and so on. Instead, it relies on a specialized, well-optimized tensor manipulation library to do so, serving as the "backend engine" of Keras. Rather than picking one single tensor library and making the implementation of Keras tied to that library, Keras handles the problem in a modular way, and several different backend engines can be plugged seamlessly into Keras.
+
+At this time, Keras has two backend implementations available: the **TensorFlow** backend and the **Theano** backend.
+
+- [TensorFlow](http://www.tensorflow.org/) is an open-source symbolic tensor manipulation framework developed by Google, Inc.
+- [Theano](http://deeplearning.net/software/theano/) is an open-source symbolic tensor manipulation framework developed by LISA/MILA Lab at Université de Montréal.
+
+In the future, we are likely to add more backend options. If you are interested in developing a new backend, get in touch!
+
+----
+
+## Switching from one backend to another
+
+If you have run Keras at least once, you will find the Keras configuration file at:
+
+`~/.keras/keras.json`
+
+If it isn't there, you can create it.
+
+The default configuration file looks like this:
+
+```
+{
+    "image_dim_ordering": "tf",
+    "epsilon": 1e-07,
+    "floatx": "float32",
+    "backend": "tensorflow"
+}
+```
+
+Simply change the field `backend` to either `"theano"` or `"tensorflow"`, and Keras will use the new configuration next time you run any Keras code.
+
+You can also define the environment variable ``KERAS_BACKEND`` and this will
+override what is defined in your config file :
+
+```bash
+KERAS_BACKEND=tensorflow python -c "from keras import backend"
+Using TensorFlow backend.
+```
+
+----
+
+## Using the abstract Keras backend to write new code
+
+If you want the Keras modules you write to be compatible with both Theano and TensorFlow, you have to write them via the abstract Keras backend API. Here's an intro.
+
+You can import the backend module via:
+```python
+from keras import backend as K
+```
+
+The code below instantiates an input placeholder. It's equivalent to `tf.placeholder()` or `T.matrix()`, `T.tensor3()`, etc.
+
+```python
+input = K.placeholder(shape=(2, 4, 5))
+# also works:
+input = K.placeholder(shape=(None, 4, 5))
+# also works:
+input = K.placeholder(ndim=3)
+```
+
+The code below instantiates a shared variable. It's equivalent to `tf.variable()` or `theano.shared()`.
+
+```python
+val = np.random.random((3, 4, 5))
+var = K.variable(value=val)
+
+# all-zeros variable:
+var = K.zeros(shape=(3, 4, 5))
+# all-ones:
+var = K.ones(shape=(3, 4, 5))
+```
+
+Most tensor operations you will need can be done as you would in TensorFlow or Theano:
+
+```python
+a = b + c * K.abs(d)
+c = K.dot(a, K.transpose(b))
+a = K.sum(b, axis=2)
+a = K.softmax(b)
+a = concatenate([b, c], axis=-1)
+# etc...
+```

     - __maxlen__: int. Maximum sequence length. Any longer sequence will be truncated.
-    - __test_split__: float. Fraction of the dataset to be used as test data.
     - __seed__: int. Seed for reproducible data shuffling.
+    - __start_char__: char. The start of a sequence will be marked with this character.
+        Set to 1 because 0 is usually the padding character.
+    - __oov_char__: char. words that were cut out because of the `nb_words`
+        or `skip_top` limit will be replaced with this character.
+    - __index_from__: int. Index actual words with this index and higher.

+
+### How should I cite Keras?
+
+Please cite Keras in your publications if it helps your research. Here is an example BibTeX entry:
+
+```
+@misc{chollet2015keras,
+  title={Keras},
+  author={Chollet, Fran\c{c}ois},
+  year={2015},
+  publisher={GitHub},
+  howpublished={\url{https://github.com/fchollet/keras}},
+}
+```
+
+### How can I run Keras on GPU?
+
+If you are running on the TensorFlow backend, your code will automatically run on GPU if any available GPU is detected.
+If you are running on the Theano backend, you can use one of the following methods:
+
+Method 1: use Theano flags.
+```bash
+THEANO_FLAGS=device=gpu,floatX=float32 python my_keras_script.py
+```
+
+The name 'gpu' might have to be changed depending on your device's identifier (e.g. `gpu0`, `gpu1`, etc).
+
+Method 2: set up your `.theanorc`: [Instructions](http://deeplearning.net/software/theano/library/config.html)
+
+Method 3: manually set `theano.config.device`, `theano.config.floatX` at the beginning of your code:
+```python
+import theano
+theano.config.device = 'gpu'
+theano.config.floatX = 'float32'
+```
+
+---
+
+### How can I save a Keras model?
+
+*It is not recommended to use pickle or cPickle to save a Keras model.*
+
+You can use `model.save(filepath)` to save a Keras model into a single HDF5 file which will contain:
+
+- the architecture of the model, allowing to re-create the model
+- the weights of the model
+- the training configuration (loss, optimizer)
+- the state of the optimizer, allowing to resume training exactly where you left off.
+
+You can then use `keras.models.load_model(filepath)` to reinstantiate your model.
+`load_model` will also take care of compiling the model using the saved training configuration
+(unless the model was never compiled in the first place).
+
+Example:
+
+```python
+from keras.models import load_model
+
+model.save('my_model.h5')  # creates a HDF5 file 'my_model.h5'
+del model  # deletes the existing model
+
+# returns a compiled model
+# identical to the previous one
+model = load_model('my_model.h5')
+```
+
+If you only need to save the **architecture of a model**, and not its weights or its training configuration, you can do:
+
+```python
+# save as JSON
+json_string = model.to_json()
+
+# save as YAML
+yaml_string = model.to_yaml()
+```
+
+The generated JSON / YAML files are human-readable and can be manually edited if needed.
+
+You can then build a fresh model from this data:
+
+```python
+# model reconstruction from JSON:
+from keras.models import model_from_json
+model = model_from_json(json_string)
+
+# model reconstruction from YAML
+model = model_from_yaml(yaml_string)
+```
+
+If you need to save the **weights of a model**, you can do so in HDF5 with the code below.
+
+Note that you will first need to install HDF5 and the Python library h5py, which do not come bundled with Keras.
+
+```python
+model.save_weights('my_model_weights.h5')
+```
+
+Assuming you have code for instantiating your model, you can then load the weights you saved into a model with the *same* architecture:
+
+```python
+model.load_weights('my_model_weights.h5')
+```
+
+If you need to load weights into a *different* architecture (with some layers in common), for instance for fine-tuning or transfer-learning, you can load weights by *layer name*:
+
+```python
+model.load_weights('my_model_weights.h5', by_name=True)
+```
+
+For example:
+
+```python
+"""
+Assume original model looks like this:
+    model = Sequential()
+    model.add(Dense(2, input_dim=3, name="dense_1"))
+    model.add(Dense(3, name="dense_2"))
+    ...
+    model.save_weights(fname)
+"""
+
+# new model
+model = Sequential()
+model.add(Dense(2, input_dim=3, name="dense_1"))  # will be loaded
+model.add(Dense(10, name="new_dense"))  # will not be loaded
+
+# load weights from first model; will only affect the first layer, dense_1.
+model.load_weights(fname, by_name=True)
+```
+
+---
+
+### Why is the training loss much higher than the testing loss?
+
+A Keras model has two modes: training and testing. Regularization mechanisms, such as Dropout and L1/L2 weight regularization, are turned off at testing time.
+
+Besides, the training loss is the average of the losses over each batch of training data. Because your model is changing over time, the loss over the first batches of an epoch is generally higher than over the last batches. On the other hand, the testing loss for an epoch is computed using the model as it is at the end of the epoch, resulting in a lower loss.
+
+---
+
+### How can I visualize the output of an intermediate layer?
+
+You can build a Keras function that will return the output of a certain layer given a certain input, for example:
+
+```python
+from keras import backend as K
+
+# with a Sequential model
+get_3rd_layer_output = K.function([model.layers[0].input],
+                                  [model.layers[3].output])
+layer_output = get_3rd_layer_output([X])[0]
+```
+
+Similarly, you could build a Theano and TensorFlow function directly.
+
+Note that if your model has a different behavior in training and testing phase (e.g. if it uses `Dropout`, `BatchNormalization`, etc.), you will need
+to pass the learning phase flag to your function:
+
+```python
+get_3rd_layer_output = K.function([model.layers[0].input, K.learning_phase()],
+                                  [model.layers[3].output])
+
+# output in test mode = 0
+layer_output = get_3rd_layer_output([X, 0])[0]
+
+# output in train mode = 1
+layer_output = get_3rd_layer_output([X, 1])[0]
+```
+
+Another more flexible way of getting output from intermediate layers is to use the [functional API](/getting-started/functional-api-guide). For example, if you have created an autoencoder for MNIST:
+
+```python
+inputs = Input(shape=(784,))
+encoded = Dense(32, activation='relu')(inputs)
+decoded = Dense(784)(encoded)
+model = Model(input=inputs, output=decoded)
+```
+
+After compiling and training the model, you can get the output of the data from the encoder like this:
+
+```python
+encoder = Model(input=inputs, output=encoded)
+X_encoded = encoder.predict(X)
+```
+
+---
+
+### How can I use Keras with datasets that don't fit in memory?
+
+You can do batch training using `model.train_on_batch(X, y)` and `model.test_on_batch(X, y)`. See the [models documentation](/models/sequential).
+
+Alternatively, you can write a generator that yields batches of training data and use the method `model.fit_generator(data_generator, samples_per_epoch, nb_epoch)`.
+
+You can see batch training in action in our [CIFAR10 example](https://github.com/fchollet/keras/blob/master/examples/cifar10_cnn.py).
+
+---
+
+### How can I interrupt training when the validation loss isn't decreasing anymore?
+
+You can use an `EarlyStopping` callback:
+
+```python
+from keras.callbacks import EarlyStopping
+early_stopping = EarlyStopping(monitor='val_loss', patience=2)
+model.fit(X, y, validation_split=0.2, callbacks=[early_stopping])
+```
+
+Find out more in the [callbacks documentation](/callbacks).
+
+---
+
+### How is the validation split computed?
+
+If you set the `validation_split` argument in `model.fit` to e.g. 0.1, then the validation data used will be the *last 10%* of the data. If you set it to 0.25, it will be the last 25% of the data, etc.
+
+
+---
+
+### Is the data shuffled during training?
+
+Yes, if the `shuffle` argument in `model.fit` is set to `True` (which is the default), the training data will be randomly shuffled at each epoch.
+
+Validation data is never shuffled.
+
+---
+
+
+### How can I record the training / validation loss / accuracy at each epoch?
+
+The `model.fit` method returns an `History` callback, which has a `history` attribute containing the lists of successive losses and other metrics.
+
+```python
+hist = model.fit(X, y, validation_split=0.2)
+print(hist.history)
+```
+
+---
+
+### How can I "freeze" Keras layers?
+
+To "freeze" a layer means to exclude it from training, i.e. its weights will never be updated. This is useful in the context of fine-tuning a model, or using fixed embeddings for a text input.
+
+You can pass a `trainable` argument (boolean) to a layer constructor to set a layer to be non-trainable:
+
+```python
+frozen_layer = Dense(32, trainable=False)
+```
+
+Additionally, you can set the `trainable` property of a layer to `True` or `False` after instantiation. For this to take effect, you will need to call `compile()` on your model after modifying the `trainable` property. Here's an example:
+
+```python
+x = Input(shape=(32,))
+layer = Dense(32)
+layer.trainable = False
+y = layer(x)
+
+frozen_model = Model(x, y)
+# in the model below, the weights of `layer` will not be updated during training
+frozen_model.compile(optimizer='rmsprop', loss='mse')
+
+layer.trainable = True
+trainable_model = Model(x, y)
+# with this model the weights of the layer will be updated during training
+# (which will also affect the above model since it uses the same layer instance)
+trainable_model.compile(optimizer='rmsprop', loss='mse')
+
+frozen_model.fit(data, labels)  # this does NOT update the weights of `layer`
+trainable_model.fit(data, labels)  # this updates the weights of `layer`
+```
+
+---
+
+### How can I use stateful RNNs?
+
+Making a RNN stateful means that the states for the samples of each batch will be reused as initial states for the samples in the next batch.
+
+When using stateful RNNs, it is therefore assumed that:
+
+- all batches have the same number of samples
+- If `X1` and `X2` are successive batches of samples, then `X2[i]` is the follow-up sequence to `X1[i]`, for every `i`.
+
+To use statefulness in RNNs, you need to:
+
+- explicitly specify the batch size you are using, by passing a `batch_input_shape` argument to the first layer in your model. It should be a tuple of integers, e.g. `(32, 10, 16)` for a 32-samples batch of sequences of 10 timesteps with 16 features per timestep.
+- set `stateful=True` in your RNN layer(s).
+
+To reset the states accumulated:
+
+- use `model.reset_states()` to reset the states of all layers in the model
+- use `layer.reset_states()` to reset the states of a specific stateful RNN layer
+
+Example:
+
+```python
+
+X  # this is our input data, of shape (32, 21, 16)
+# we will feed it to our model in sequences of length 10
+
+model = Sequential()
+model.add(LSTM(32, batch_input_shape=(32, 10, 16), stateful=True))
+model.add(Dense(16, activation='softmax'))
+
+model.compile(optimizer='rmsprop', loss='categorical_crossentropy')
+
+# we train the network to predict the 11th timestep given the first 10:
+model.train_on_batch(X[:, :10, :], np.reshape(X[:, 10, :], (32, 16)))
+
+# the state of the network has changed. We can feed the follow-up sequences:
+model.train_on_batch(X[:, 10:20, :], np.reshape(X[:, 20, :], (32, 16)))
+
+# let's reset the states of the LSTM layer:
+model.reset_states()
+
+# another way to do it in this case:
+model.layers[0].reset_states()
+```
+
+Notes that the methods `predict`, `fit`, `train_on_batch`, `predict_classes`, etc. will *all* update the states of the stateful layers in a model. This allows you to do not only stateful training, but also stateful prediction.
+
+---
+
+### How can I remove a layer from a Sequential model?
+
+You can remove the last added layer in a Sequential model by calling `.pop()`:
+
+```python
+model = Sequential()
+model.add(Dense(32, activation='relu', input_dim=784))
+model.add(Dense(32, activation='relu'))
+
+print(len(model.layers))  # "2"
+
+model.pop()
+print(len(model.layers))  # "1"
+```
+
+---
+
+### How can I use pre-trained models in Keras?
+
+Code and pre-trained weights are available for the following image classification models:
+
+- VGG16
+- VGG19
+- ResNet50
+- Inception v3
+
+They can be imported from the module `keras.applications`:
+
+```python
+from keras.applications.vgg16 import VGG16
+from keras.applications.vgg19 import VGG19
+from keras.applications.resnet50 import ResNet50
+from keras.applications.inception_v3 import InceptionV3
+
+model = VGG16(weights='imagenet', include_top=True)
+```
+
+For a few simple usage examples, see [the documentation for the Applications module](/applications).
+
+For a detailed example of how to use such a pre-trained model for feature extraction or for fine-tuning, see [this blog post](http://blog.keras.io/building-powerful-image-classification-models-using-very-little-data.html).
+
+The VGG16 model is also the basis for several Keras example scripts:
+
+- [Style transfer](https://github.com/fchollet/keras/blob/master/examples/neural_style_transfer.py)

+# Getting started with the Keras functional API
+
+The Keras functional API is the way to go for defining complex models, such as multi-output models, directed acyclic graphs, or models with shared layers.
+
+This guide assumes that you are already familiar with the `Sequential` model.
+
+Let's start with something simple.
+
+-----
+
+## First example: fully connected network
+
+The `Sequential` model is probably a better choice to implement such a network, but it helps to start with something really simple.
+
+- A layer instance is callable (on a tensor), and it returns a tensor
+- Input tensor(s) and output tensor(s) can then be used to define a `Model`
+- Such a model can be trained just like Keras `Sequential` models.
+
+```python
+from keras.layers import Input, Dense
+from keras.models import Model
+
+# this returns a tensor
+inputs = Input(shape=(784,))
+
+# a layer instance is callable on a tensor, and returns a tensor
+x = Dense(64, activation='relu')(inputs)
+x = Dense(64, activation='relu')(x)
+predictions = Dense(10, activation='softmax')(x)
+
+# this creates a model that includes
+# the Input layer and three Dense layers
+model = Model(input=inputs, output=predictions)
+model.compile(optimizer='rmsprop',
+              loss='categorical_crossentropy',
+              metrics=['accuracy'])
+model.fit(data, labels)  # starts training
+```
+
+-----
+
+## All models are callable, just like layers
+
+With the functional API, it is easy to re-use trained models: you can treat any model as if it were a layer, by calling it on a tensor. Note that by calling a model you aren't just re-using the *architecture* of the model, you are also re-using its weights.
+
+```python
+x = Input(shape=(784,))
+# this works, and returns the 10-way softmax we defined above.
+y = model(x)
+```
+
+This can allow, for instance, to quickly create models that can process *sequences* of inputs. You could turn an image classification model into a video classification model, in just one line.
+
+```python
+from keras.layers import TimeDistributed
+
+# input tensor for sequences of 20 timesteps,
+# each containing a 784-dimensional vector
+input_sequences = Input(shape=(20, 784))
+
+# this applies our previous model to every timestep in the input sequences.
+# the output of the previous model was a 10-way softmax,
+# so the output of the layer below will be a sequence of 20 vectors of size 10.
+processed_sequences = TimeDistributed(model)(input_sequences)
+```
+
+-----
+
+## Multi-input and multi-output models
+
+Here's a good use case for the functional API: models with multiple inputs and outputs. The functional API makes it easy to manipulate a large number of intertwined datastreams.
+
+Let's consider the following model. We seek to predict how many retweets and likes a news headline will receive on Twitter. The main input to the model will be the headline itself, as a sequence of words, but to spice things up, our model will also have an auxiliary input, receiving extra data such as the time of day when the headline was posted, etc.
+The model will also be supervised via two loss functions. Using the main loss function earlier in a model is a good regularization mechanism for deep models.
+
+Here's what our model looks like:
+
+<img src="https://s3.amazonaws.com/keras.io/img/multi-input-multi-output-graph.png" alt="multi-input-multi-output-graph" style="width: 400px;"/>
+
+Let's implement it with the functional API.
+
+The main input will receive the headline, as a sequence of integers (each integer encodes a word).
+The integers will be between 1 and 10,000 (a vocabulary of 10,000 words) and the sequences will be 100 words long.
+
+```python
+from keras.layers import Input, Embedding, LSTM, Dense, merge
+from keras.models import Model
+
+# headline input: meant to receive sequences of 100 integers, between 1 and 10000.
+# note that we can name any layer by passing it a "name" argument.
+main_input = Input(shape=(100,), dtype='int32', name='main_input')
+
+# this embedding layer will encode the input sequence
+# into a sequence of dense 512-dimensional vectors.
+x = Embedding(output_dim=512, input_dim=10000, input_length=100)(main_input)
+
+# a LSTM will transform the vector sequence into a single vector,
+# containing information about the entire sequence
+lstm_out = LSTM(32)(x)
+```
+
+Here we insert the auxiliary loss, allowing the LSTM and Embedding layer to be trained smoothly even though the main loss will be much higher in the model.
+
+```python
+auxiliary_loss = Dense(1, activation='sigmoid', name='aux_output')(lstm_out)
+```
+
+At this point, we feed into the model our auxiliary input data by concatenating it with the LSTM output:
+
+```python
+auxiliary_input = Input(shape=(5,), name='aux_input')
+x = merge([lstm_out, auxiliary_input], mode='concat')
+
+# we stack a deep fully-connected network on top
+x = Dense(64, activation='relu')(x)
+x = Dense(64, activation='relu')(x)
+x = Dense(64, activation='relu')(x)
+
+# and finally we add the main logistic regression layer
+main_loss = Dense(1, activation='sigmoid', name='main_output')(x)
+```
+
+This defines a model with two inputs and two outputs:
+
+```python
+model = Model(input=[main_input, auxiliary_input], output=[main_loss, auxiliary_loss])
+```
+
+We compile the model and assign a weight of 0.2 to the auxiliary loss.
+To specify different `loss_weights` or `loss` for each different output, you can use a list or a dictionary.
+Here we pass a single loss as the `loss` argument, so the same loss will be used on all outputs.
+
+```python
+model.compile(optimizer='rmsprop', loss='binary_crossentropy',
+              loss_weights=[1., 0.2])
+```
+
+We can train the model by passing it lists of input arrays and target arrays:
+
+```python
+model.fit([headline_data, additional_data], [labels, labels],
+          nb_epoch=50, batch_size=32)
+```
+
+Since our inputs and outputs are named (we passed them a "name" argument),
+We could also have compiled the model via:
+
+```python
+model.compile(optimizer='rmsprop',
+              loss={'main_output': 'binary_crossentropy', 'aux_output': 'binary_crossentropy'},
+              loss_weights={'main_output': 1., 'aux_output': 0.2})
+
+# and trained it via:
+model.fit({'main_input': headline_data, 'aux_input': additional_data},
+          {'main_output': labels, 'aux_output': labels},
+          nb_epoch=50, batch_size=32)

+
+## Shared layers
+
+Another good use for the functional API are models that use shared layers. Let's take a look at shared layers.
+
+Let's consider a dataset of tweets. We want to build a model that can tell whether two tweets are from the same person or not (this can allow us to compare users by the similarity of their tweets, for instance).
+
+One way to achieve this is to build a model that encodes two tweets into two vectors, concatenates the vectors and adds a logistic regression of top, outputting a probability that the two tweets share the same author. The model would then be trained on positive tweet pairs and negative tweet pairs.
+
+Because the problem is symmetric, the mechanism that encodes the first tweet should be reused (weights and all) to encode the second tweet. Here we use a shared LSTM layer to encode the tweets.
+
+Let's build this with the functional API. We will take as input for a tweet a binary matrix of shape `(140, 256)`, i.e. a sequence of 140 vectors of size 256, where each dimension in the 256-dimensional vector encodes the presence/absence of a character (out of an alphabet of 256 frequent characters).
+
+```python
+from keras.layers import Input, LSTM, Dense, merge
+from keras.models import Model
+
+tweet_a = Input(shape=(140, 256))
+tweet_b = Input(shape=(140, 256))
+```
+
+To share a layer across different inputs, simply instantiate the layer once, then call it on as many inputs as you want:
+
+```python
+# this layer can take as input a matrix
+# and will return a vector of size 64
+shared_lstm = LSTM(64)
+
+# when we reuse the same layer instance
+# multiple times, the weights of the layer
+# are also being reused
+# (it is effectively *the same* layer)
+encoded_a = shared_lstm(tweet_a)
+encoded_b = shared_lstm(tweet_b)
+
+# we can then concatenate the two vectors:
+merged_vector = merge([encoded_a, encoded_b], mode='concat', concat_axis=-1)
+
+# and add a logistic regression on top
+predictions = Dense(1, activation='sigmoid')(merged_vector)
+
+# we define a trainable model linking the
+# tweet inputs to the predictions
+model = Model(input=[tweet_a, tweet_b], output=predictions)
+
+model.compile(optimizer='rmsprop',
+              loss='binary_crossentropy',
+              metrics=['accuracy'])
+model.fit([data_a, data_b], labels, nb_epoch=10)
+```
+
+Let's pause to take a look at how to read the shared layer's output or output shape.
+
+-----
+
+## The concept of layer "node"
+
+Whenever you are calling a layer on some input, you are creating a new tensor (the output of the layer), and you are adding a "node" to the layer, linking the input tensor to the output tensor. When you are calling the same layer multiple times, that layer owns multiple nodes indexed as 0, 1, 2...
+
+In previous versions of Keras, you could obtain the output tensor of a layer instance via `layer.get_output()`, or its output shape via `layer.output_shape`. You still can (except `get_output()` has been replaced by the property `output`). But what if a layer is connected to multiple inputs?
+
+As long as a layer is only connected to one input, there is no confusion, and `.output` will return the one output of the layer:
+
+```python
+a = Input(shape=(140, 256))
+
+lstm = LSTM(32)
+encoded_a = lstm(a)
+
+assert lstm.output == encoded_a
+```
+
+Not so if the layer has multiple inputs:
+```python
+a = Input(shape=(140, 256))
+b = Input(shape=(140, 256))
+
+lstm = LSTM(32)
+encoded_a = lstm(a)
+encoded_b = lstm(b)
+
+lstm.output
+```
+```
+>> AssertionError: Layer lstm_1 has multiple inbound nodes,
+hence the notion of "layer output" is ill-defined.
+Use `get_output_at(node_index)` instead.
+```
+
+Okay then. The following works:
+
+```python
+assert lstm.get_output_at(0) == encoded_a
+assert lstm.get_output_at(1) == encoded_b
+```
+
+Simple enough, right?
+
+The same is true for the properties `input_shape` and `output_shape`: as long as the layer has only one node, or as long as all nodes have the same input/output shape, then the notion of "layer output/input shape" is well defined, and that one shape will be returned by `layer.output_shape`/`layer.input_shape`. But if, for instance, you apply a same `Convolution2D` layer to an input of shape `(3, 32, 32)`, and then to an input of shape `(3, 64, 64)`, the layer will have multiple input/output shapes, and you will have to fetch them by specifying the index of the node they belong to:
+
+```python
+a = Input(shape=(3, 32, 32))
+b = Input(shape=(3, 64, 64))
+
+conv = Convolution2D(16, 3, 3, border_mode='same')
+conved_a = conv(a)
+
+# only one input so far, the following will work:
+assert conv.input_shape == (None, 3, 32, 32)
+
+conved_b = conv(b)
+# now the `.input_shape` property wouldn't work, but this does:
+assert conv.get_input_shape_at(0) == (None, 3, 32, 32)
+assert conv.get_input_shape_at(1) == (None, 3, 64, 64)
+```
+

+## More examples
+
+Code examples are still the best way to get started, so here are a few more.
+
+### Inception module
+
+For more information about the Inception architecture, see [Going Deeper with Convolutions](http://arxiv.org/abs/1409.4842).
+
+```python
+from keras.layers import merge, Convolution2D, MaxPooling2D, Input
+
+input_img = Input(shape=(3, 256, 256))
+
+tower_1 = Convolution2D(64, 1, 1, border_mode='same', activation='relu')(input_img)
+tower_1 = Convolution2D(64, 3, 3, border_mode='same', activation='relu')(tower_1)
+
+tower_2 = Convolution2D(64, 1, 1, border_mode='same', activation='relu')(input_img)
+tower_2 = Convolution2D(64, 5, 5, border_mode='same', activation='relu')(tower_2)
+
+tower_3 = MaxPooling2D((3, 3), strides=(1, 1), border_mode='same')(input_img)
+tower_3 = Convolution2D(64, 1, 1, border_mode='same', activation='relu')(tower_3)
+
+output = merge([tower_1, tower_2, tower_3], mode='concat', concat_axis=1)
+```
+
+### Residual connection on a convolution layer
+
+For more information about residual networks, see [Deep Residual Learning for Image Recognition](http://arxiv.org/abs/1512.03385).
+
+```python
+from keras.layers import merge, Convolution2D, Input
+
+# input tensor for a 3-channel 256x256 image
+x = Input(shape=(3, 256, 256))
+# 3x3 conv with 3 output channels (same as input channels)
+y = Convolution2D(3, 3, 3, border_mode='same')(x)
+# this returns x + y.
+z = merge([x, y], mode='sum')
+```
+
+### Shared vision model
+
+This model re-uses the same image-processing module on two inputs, to classify whether two MNIST digits are the same digit or different digits.
+
+```python
+from keras.layers import merge, Convolution2D, MaxPooling2D, Input, Dense, Flatten
+from keras.models import Model
+
+# first, define the vision modules
+digit_input = Input(shape=(1, 27, 27))
+x = Convolution2D(64, 3, 3)(digit_input)
+x = Convolution2D(64, 3, 3)(x)
+x = MaxPooling2D((2, 2))(x)
+out = Flatten()(x)
+
+vision_model = Model(digit_input, out)
+
+# then define the tell-digits-apart model
+digit_a = Input(shape=(1, 27, 27))
+digit_b = Input(shape=(1, 27, 27))
+
+# the vision model will be shared, weights and all
+out_a = vision_model(digit_a)
+out_b = vision_model(digit_b)
+
+concatenated = merge([out_a, out_b], mode='concat')
+out = Dense(1, activation='sigmoid')(concatenated)
+
+classification_model = Model([digit_a, digit_b], out)
+```
+
+### Visual question answering model
+
+This model can select the correct one-word answer when asked a natural-language question about a picture.
+
+It works by encoding the question into a vector, encoding the image into a vector, concatenating the two, and training on top a logistic regression over some vocabulary of potential answers.
+
+```python
+from keras.layers import Convolution2D, MaxPooling2D, Flatten
+from keras.layers import Input, LSTM, Embedding, Dense, merge
+from keras.models import Model, Sequential
+
+# first, let's define a vision model using a Sequential model.
+# this model will encode an image into a vector.
+vision_model = Sequential()
+vision_model.add(Convolution2D(64, 3, 3, activation='relu', border_mode='same', input_shape=(3, 224, 224)))
+vision_model.add(Convolution2D(64, 3, 3, activation='relu'))
+vision_model.add(MaxPooling2D((2, 2)))
+vision_model.add(Convolution2D(128, 3, 3, activation='relu', border_mode='same'))
+vision_model.add(Convolution2D(128, 3, 3, activation='relu'))
+vision_model.add(MaxPooling2D((2, 2)))
+vision_model.add(Convolution2D(256, 3, 3, activation='relu', border_mode='same'))
+vision_model.add(Convolution2D(256, 3, 3, activation='relu'))
+vision_model.add(Convolution2D(256, 3, 3, activation='relu'))
+vision_model.add(MaxPooling2D((2, 2)))
+vision_model.add(Flatten())
+
+# now let's get a tensor with the output of our vision model:
+image_input = Input(shape=(3, 224, 224))
+encoded_image = vision_model(image_input)
+
+# next, let's define a language model to encode the question into a vector.
+# each question will be at most 100 word long,
+# and we will index words as integers from 1 to 9999.
+question_input = Input(shape=(100,), dtype='int32')
+embedded_question = Embedding(input_dim=10000, output_dim=256, input_length=100)(question_input)
+encoded_question = LSTM(256)(embedded_question)
+
+# let's concatenate the question vector and the image vector:
+merged = merge([encoded_question, encoded_image], mode='concat')
+
+# and let's train a logistic regression over 1000 words on top:
+output = Dense(1000, activation='softmax')(merged)
+
+# this is our final model:
+vqa_model = Model(input=[image_input, question_input], output=output)
+
+# the next stage would be training this model on actual data.
+```
+
+### Video question answering model
+
+Now that we have trained our image QA model, we can quickly turn it into a video QA model. With appropriate training, you will be able to show it a short video (e.g. 100-frame human action) and ask a natural language question about the video (e.g. "what sport is the boy playing?" -> "football").
+
+```python
+from keras.layers import TimeDistributed
+
+video_input = Input(shape=(100, 3, 224, 224))
+# this is our video encoded via the previously trained vision_model (weights are reused)
+encoded_frame_sequence = TimeDistributed(vision_model)(video_input)  # the output will be a sequence of vectors
+encoded_video = LSTM(256)(encoded_frame_sequence)  # the output will be a vector
+
+# this is a model-level representation of the question encoder, reusing the same weights as before:
+question_encoder = Model(input=question_input, output=encoded_question)
+
+# let's use it to encode the question:
+video_question_input = Input(shape=(100,), dtype='int32')
+encoded_video_question = question_encoder(video_question_input)
+
+# and this is our video question answering model:
+merged = merge([encoded_video, encoded_video_question], mode='concat')
+output = Dense(1000, activation='softmax')(merged)
+video_qa_model = Model(input=[video_input, video_question_input], output=output)
+```

+# Getting started with the Keras Sequential model
+
+The `Sequential` model is a linear stack of layers.
+
+You can create a `Sequential` model by passing a list of layer instances to the constructor:
+
+```python
+from keras.models import Sequential
+from keras.layers import Dense, Activation
+
+model = Sequential([
+    Dense(32, input_dim=784),
+    Activation('relu'),
+    Dense(10),
+    Activation('softmax'),
+])
+```
+
+You can also simply add layers via the `.add()` method:
+
+```python
+model = Sequential()
+model.add(Dense(32, input_dim=784))
+model.add(Activation('relu'))
+```
+
+----
+
+## Specifying the input shape
+
+The model needs to know what input shape it should expect. For this reason, the first layer in a `Sequential` model (and only the first, because following layers can do automatic shape inference) needs to receive information about its input shape. There are several possible ways to do this:
+
+- pass an `input_shape` argument to the first layer. This is a shape tuple (a tuple of integers or `None` entries, where `None` indicates that any positive integer may be expected). In `input_shape`, the batch dimension is not included.
+- pass instead a `batch_input_shape` argument, where the batch dimension is included. This is useful for specifying a fixed batch size (e.g. with stateful RNNs).
+- some 2D layers, such as `Dense`, support the specification of their input shape via the argument `input_dim`, and some 3D temporal layers support the arguments `input_dim` and `input_length`.
+
+As such, the following three snippets are strictly equivalent:
+```python
+model = Sequential()
+model.add(Dense(32, input_shape=(784,)))
+```
+```python
+model = Sequential()
+model.add(Dense(32, batch_input_shape=(None, 784)))
+# note that batch dimension is "None" here,
+# so the model will be able to process batches of any size.
+```
+```python
+model = Sequential()
+model.add(Dense(32, input_dim=784))
+```
+
+And so are the following three snippets:
+```python
+model = Sequential()
+model.add(LSTM(32, input_shape=(10, 64)))
+```
+```python
+model = Sequential()
+model.add(LSTM(32, batch_input_shape=(None, 10, 64)))
+```
+```python
+model = Sequential()
+model.add(LSTM(32, input_length=10, input_dim=64))
+```
+
+----
+
+## The Merge layer
+
+Multiple `Sequential` instances can be merged into a single output via a `Merge` layer. The output is a layer that can be added as first layer in a new `Sequential` model. For instance, here's a model with two separate input branches getting merged:
+
+```python
+from keras.layers import Merge
+
+left_branch = Sequential()
+left_branch.add(Dense(32, input_dim=784))
+
+right_branch = Sequential()
+right_branch.add(Dense(32, input_dim=784))
+
+merged = Merge([left_branch, right_branch], mode='concat')
+
+final_model = Sequential()
+final_model.add(merged)
+final_model.add(Dense(10, activation='softmax'))
+```
+
+<img src="https://s3.amazonaws.com/keras.io/img/two_branches_sequential_model.png" alt="two branch Sequential" style="width: 400px;"/>
+
+Such a two-branch model can then be trained via e.g.:
+
+```python
+final_model.compile(optimizer='rmsprop', loss='categorical_crossentropy')
+final_model.fit([input_data_1, input_data_2], targets)  # we pass one data array per model input
+```
+
+The `Merge` layer supports a number of pre-defined modes:
+
+- `sum` (default): element-wise sum
+- `concat`: tensor concatenation. You can specify the concatenation axis via the argument `concat_axis`.
+- `mul`: element-wise multiplication
+- `ave`: tensor average
+- `dot`: dot product. You can specify which axes to reduce along via the argument `dot_axes`.
+- `cos`: cosine proximity between vectors in 2D tensors.
+
+You can also pass a function as the `mode` argument, allowing for arbitrary transformations:
+
+```python
+merged = Merge([left_branch, right_branch], mode=lambda x: x[0] - x[1])
+```
+
+Now you know enough to be able to define *almost* any model with Keras. For complex models that cannot be expressed via `Sequential` and `Merge`, you can use [the functional API](/getting-started/functional-api-guide).
+
+
+----
+
+## Compilation
+
+Before training a model, you need to configure the learning process, which is done via the `compile` method. It receives three arguments:
+
+- an optimizer. This could be the string identifier of an existing optimizer (such as `rmsprop` or `adagrad`), or an instance of the `Optimizer` class. See: [optimizers](/optimizers).
+- a loss function. This is the objective that the model will try to minimize. It can be the string identifier of an existing loss function (such as `categorical_crossentropy` or `mse`), or it can be an objective function. See: [objectives](/objectives).
+- a list of metrics. For any classification problem you will want to set this to `metrics=['accuracy']`. A metric could be the string identifier of an existing metric (only `accuracy` is supported at this point), or a custom metric function.
+
+```python
+# for a multi-class classification problem
+model.compile(optimizer='rmsprop',
+              loss='categorical_crossentropy',
+              metrics=['accuracy'])
+
+# for a binary classification problem
+model.compile(optimizer='rmsprop',
+              loss='binary_crossentropy',
+              metrics=['accuracy'])
+
+# for a mean squared error regression problem
+model.compile(optimizer='rmsprop',
+              loss='mse')
+```
+
+----
+
+## Training
+
+Keras models are trained on Numpy arrays of input data and labels. For training a model, you will typically use the `fit` function. [Read its documentation here](/models/sequential). 
+
+```python
+# for a single-input model with 2 classes (binary):
+
+model = Sequential()
+model.add(Dense(1, input_dim=784, activation='sigmoid'))
+model.compile(optimizer='rmsprop',
+              loss='binary_crossentropy',
+              metrics=['accuracy'])
+
+# generate dummy data
+import numpy as np
+data = np.random.random((1000, 784))
+labels = np.random.randint(2, size=(1000, 1))
+
+# train the model, iterating on the data in batches
+# of 32 samples
+model.fit(data, labels, nb_epoch=10, batch_size=32)
+```
+```python
+# for a multi-input model with 10 classes:
+
+left_branch = Sequential()
+left_branch.add(Dense(32, input_dim=784))
+
+right_branch = Sequential()
+right_branch.add(Dense(32, input_dim=784))
+
+merged = Merge([left_branch, right_branch], mode='concat')
+
+model = Sequential()
+model.add(merged)
+model.add(Dense(10, activation='softmax'))
+
+model.compile(optimizer='rmsprop',
+              loss='categorical_crossentropy',
+              metrics=['accuracy'])
+
+# generate dummy data
+import numpy as np
+from keras.utils.np_utils import to_categorical
+data_1 = np.random.random((1000, 784))
+data_2 = np.random.random((1000, 784))
+
+# these are integers between 0 and 9
+labels = np.random.randint(10, size=(1000, 1))
+# we convert the labels to a binary matrix of size (1000, 10)
+# for use with categorical_crossentropy
+labels = to_categorical(labels, 10)
+
+# train the model
+# note that we are passing a list of Numpy arrays as training data
+# since the model has 2 inputs
+model.fit([data_1, data_2], labels, nb_epoch=10, batch_size=32)
+```

+# Keras: Deep Learning library for Theano and TensorFlow
+
+## You have just found Keras.
+
+Keras is a minimalist, highly modular neural networks library, written in Python and capable of running on top of either [TensorFlow](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow) or [Theano](https://github.com/Theano/Theano). It was developed with a focus on enabling fast experimentation. *Being able to go from idea to result with the least possible delay is key to doing good research.*
+
+Use Keras if you need a deep learning library that:
+
+- Allows for easy and fast prototyping (through total modularity, minimalism, and extensibility).
+- Supports both convolutional networks and recurrent networks, as well as combinations of the two.
+- Supports arbitrary connectivity schemes (including multi-input and multi-output training).
+- Runs seamlessly on CPU and GPU.
+
+Read the documentation at [Keras.io](http://keras.io).
+
+Keras is compatible with: __Python 2.7-3.5__.
+
+
+------------------
+
+
+## Guiding principles
+
+- __Modularity.__ A model is understood as a sequence or a graph of standalone, fully-configurable modules that can be plugged together with as little restrictions as possible. In particular, neural layers, cost functions, optimizers, initialization schemes, activation functions, regularization schemes are all standalone modules that you can combine to create new models.
+
+- __Minimalism.__ Each module should be kept short and simple. Every piece of code should be transparent upon first reading. No black magic: it hurts iteration speed and ability to innovate.
+
+- __Easy extensibility.__ New modules are dead simple to add (as new classes and functions), and existing modules provide ample examples. To be able to easily create new modules allows for total expressiveness, making Keras suitable for advanced research.
+
+- __Work with Python__. No separate models configuration files in a declarative format. Models are described in Python code, which is compact, easier to debug, and allows for ease of extensibility.
+
+
+------------------
+
+
+## Getting started: 30 seconds to Keras
+
+The core data structure of Keras is a __model__, a way to organize layers. The main type of model is the [`Sequential`](http://keras.io/getting-started/sequential-model-guide) model, a linear stack of layers. For more complex architectures, you should use the [Keras functional API](http://keras.io/getting-started/functional-api-guide).
+
+Here's the `Sequential` model:
+
+```python
+from keras.models import Sequential
+
+model = Sequential()
+```
+
+Stacking layers is as easy as `.add()`:
+
+```python
+from keras.layers import Dense, Activation
+
+model.add(Dense(output_dim=64, input_dim=100))
+model.add(Activation("relu"))
+model.add(Dense(output_dim=10))
+model.add(Activation("softmax"))
+```
+
+Once your model looks good, configure its learning process with `.compile()`:
+```python
+model.compile(loss='categorical_crossentropy', optimizer='sgd', metrics=['accuracy'])
+```
+
+If you need to, you can further configure your optimizer. A core principle of Keras is to make things reasonably simple, while allowing the user to be fully in control when they need to (the ultimate control being the easy extensibility of the source code).
+```python
+from keras.optimizers import SGD
+model.compile(loss='categorical_crossentropy', optimizer=SGD(lr=0.01, momentum=0.9, nesterov=True))
+```
+
+You can now iterate on your training data in batches:
+```python
+model.fit(X_train, Y_train, nb_epoch=5, batch_size=32)
+```
+
+Alternatively, you can feed batches to your model manually:
+```python
+model.train_on_batch(X_batch, Y_batch)
+```
+
+Evaluate your performance in one line:
+```python
+loss_and_metrics = model.evaluate(X_test, Y_test, batch_size=32)
+```
+
+Or generate predictions on new data:
+```python
+classes = model.predict_classes(X_test, batch_size=32)
+proba = model.predict_proba(X_test, batch_size=32)
+```
+
+Building a question answering system, an image classification model, a Neural Turing Machine, a word2vec embedder or any other model is just as fast. The ideas behind deep learning are simple, so why should their implementation be painful?
+
+For a more in-depth tutorial about Keras, you can check out:
+
+- [Getting started with the Sequential model](http://keras.io/getting-started/sequential-model-guide)
+- [Getting started with the functional API](http://keras.io/getting-started/functional-api-guide)
+
+In the [examples folder](https://github.com/fchollet/keras/tree/master/examples) of the repository, you will find more advanced models: question-answering with memory networks, text generation with stacked LSTMs, etc.
+
+
+------------------
+
+
+## Installation
+
+Keras uses the following dependencies:
+
+- numpy, scipy
+- pyyaml
+- HDF5 and h5py (optional, required if you use model saving/loading functions)
+- Optional but recommended if you use CNNs: cuDNN.
+
+
+*When using the TensorFlow backend:*
+
+- TensorFlow
+    - [See installation instructions](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow#download-and-setup).
+
+*When using the Theano backend:*
+
+- Theano
+    - [See installation instructions](http://deeplearning.net/software/theano/install.html#install).
+
+To install Keras, `cd` to the Keras folder and run the install command:
+```sh
+sudo python setup.py install
+```
+
+You can also install Keras from PyPI:
+```sh
+sudo pip install keras
+```
+
+------------------
+
+
+## Switching from TensorFlow to Theano
+
+By default, Keras will use TensorFlow as its tensor manipulation library. [Follow these instructions](http://keras.io/backend/) to configure the Keras backend.
+
+------------------
+
+
+## Support
+
+You can ask questions and join the development discussion on the [Keras Google group](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/keras-users).
+
+You can also post bug reports and feature requests in [Github issues](https://github.com/fchollet/keras/issues). Make sure to read [our guidelines](https://github.com/fchollet/keras/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md) first.
+
+
+------------------
+
+
+## Why this name, Keras?
+
+Keras (κέρας) means _horn_ in Greek. It is a reference to a literary image from ancient Greek and Latin literature, first found in the _Odyssey_, where dream spirits (_Oneiroi_, singular _Oneiros_) are divided between those who deceive men with false visions, who arrive to Earth through a gate of ivory, and those who announce a future that will come to pass, who arrive through a gate of horn. It's a play on the words κέρας (horn) / κραίνω (fulfill), and ἐλέφας (ivory) / ἐλεφαίρομαι (deceive).
+
+Keras was initially developed as part of the research effort of project ONEIROS (Open-ended Neuro-Electronic Intelligent Robot Operating System).
+
+>_"Oneiroi are beyond our unravelling --who can be sure what tale they tell? Not all that men look for comes to pass. Two gates there are that give passage to fleeting Oneiroi; one is made of horn, one of ivory. The Oneiroi that pass through sawn ivory are deceitful, bearing a message that will not be fulfilled; those that come out through polished horn have truth behind them, to be accomplished for men who see them."_ Homer, Odyssey 19. 562 ff (Shewring translation).

+
+## Usage of initializations
+
+Initializations define the way to set the initial random weights of Keras layers.
+
+The keyword arguments used for passing initializations to layers will depend on the layer. Usually it is simply `init`:
+
+```python
+model.add(Dense(64, init='uniform'))
+```
+
+## Available initializations
+
+- __uniform__
+- __lecun_uniform__: Uniform initialization scaled by the square root of the number of inputs (LeCun 98).
+- __normal__
+- __identity__: Use with square 2D layers (`shape[0] == shape[1]`).
+- __orthogonal__: Use with square 2D layers (`shape[0] == shape[1]`).
+- __zero__
+- __glorot_normal__: Gaussian initialization scaled by fan_in + fan_out (Glorot 2010)
+- __glorot_uniform__
+- __he_normal__: Gaussian initialization scaled by fan_in (He et al., 2014)
+- __he_uniform__
+
+
+An initialization may be passed as a string (must match one of the available initializations above), or as a callable.
+If a callable, then it must take two arguments: `shape` (shape of the variable to initialize) and `name` (name of the variable),
+and it must return a variable (e.g. output of `K.variable()`):
+
+```python
+from keras import backend as K
+import numpy as np
+
+def my_init(shape, name=None):
+    value = np.random.random(shape)
+    return K.variable(value, name=name)
+
+model.add(Dense(64, init=my_init))
+```
+
+You could also use functions from `keras.initializations` in this way:
+
+```python
+from keras import initializations
+
+def my_init(shape, name=None):
+    return initializations.normal(shape, scale=0.01, name=name)
+
+model.add(Dense(64, init=my_init))

+# Writing your own Keras layers
+
+For simple, stateless custom operations, you are probably better off using `layers.core.Lambda` layers. But for any custom operation that has trainable weights, you should implement your own layer.
+
+Here is the skeleton of a Keras layer. There are only three methods you need to implement:
+
+- `build(input_shape)`: this is where you will define your weights. Trainable weights should be added to the list `self.trainable_weights`. Other attributes of note are: `self.non_trainable_weights` (list) and `self.updates` (list of update tuples (tensor, new_tensor)). For an example of how to use `non_trainable_weights` and `updates`, see the code for the `BatchNormalization` layer.
+- `call(x)`: this is where the layer's logic lives. Unless you want your layer to support masking, you only have to care about the first argument passed to `call`: the input tensor.
+- `get_output_shape_for(input_shape)`: in case your layer modifies the shape of its input, you should specify here the shape transformation logic. This allows Keras to do automatic shape inference.
+

+- `model.summary()`: prints a summary representation of your model.
+- `model.get_config()`: returns a dictionary containing the configuration of the model. The model can be reinstantiated from its config via:

+- `model.set_weights(weights)`: sets the values of the weights of the model, from a list of Numpy arrays. The arrays in the list should have the same shape as those returned by `get_weights()`.
+- `model.to_json()`: returns a representation of the model as a JSON string. Note that the representation does not include the weights, only the architecture. You can reinstantiate the same model (with reinitialized weights) from the JSON string via:
+```python
+from models import model_from_json
+
+json_string = model.to_json()

+- `model.save_weights(filepath)`: saves the weights of the model as a HDF5 file.
+- `model.load_weights(filepath, by_name=False)`: loads the weights of the model from a HDF5 file (created by `save_weights`). By default, the architecture is expected to be unchanged. To load weights into a different architecture (with some layers in common), use `by_name=True` to load only those layers with the same name.

+## Usage of optimizers
+
+An optimizer is one of the two arguments required for compiling a Keras model:
+
+```python
+model = Sequential()
+model.add(Dense(64, init='uniform', input_dim=10))
+model.add(Activation('tanh'))
+model.add(Activation('softmax'))
+
+sgd = SGD(lr=0.01, decay=1e-6, momentum=0.9, nesterov=True)
+model.compile(loss='mean_squared_error', optimizer=sgd)
+```
+
+You can either instantiate an optimizer before passing it to `model.compile()` , as in the above example, or you can call it by its name. In the latter case, the default parameters for the optimizer will be used.
+
+```python
+# pass optimizer by name: default parameters will be used
+model.compile(loss='mean_squared_error', optimizer='sgd')
+```
+
+---
+
+## Parameters common to all Keras optimizers
+
+The parameters `clipnorm` and `clipvalue` can be used with all optimizers to control gradient clipping:
+
+```python
+# all parameter gradients will be clipped to
+# a maximum norm of 1.
+sgd = SGD(lr=0.01, clipnorm=1.)
+```
+
+```python
+# all parameter gradients will be clipped to
+# a maximum value of 0.5 and
+# a minimum value of -0.5.
+sgd = SGD(lr=0.01, clipvalue=0.5)
+```

+```
+
+Generate batches of tensor image data with real-time data augmentation. The data will be looped over (in batches) indefinitely.
+
+- __Arguments__:
+    - __featurewise_center__: Boolean. Set input mean to 0 over the dataset.
+    - __samplewise_center__: Boolean. Set each sample mean to 0.
+    - __featurewise_std_normalization__: Boolean. Divide inputs by std of the dataset.
+    - __samplewise_std_normalization__: Boolean. Divide each input by its std.
+    - __zca_whitening__: Boolean. Apply ZCA whitening.
+    - __rotation_range__: Int. Degree range for random rotations.
+    - __width_shift_range__: Float (fraction of total width). Range for random horizontal shifts.
+    - __height_shift_range__: Float (fraction of total height). Range for random vertical shifts.
+    - __shear_range__: Float. Shear Intensity (Shear angle in counter-clockwise direction as radians)
+    - __zoom_range__: Float or [lower, upper]. Range for random zoom. If a float, `[lower, upper] = [1-zoom_range, 1+zoom_range]`.
+    - __channel_shift_range__: Float. Range for random channel shifts.
+    - __fill_mode__: One of {"constant", "nearest", "reflect" or "wrap"}.  Points outside the boundaries of the input are filled according to the given mode.
+    - __cval__: Float or Int. Value used for points outside the boundaries when `fill_mode = "constant"`.
+    - __horizontal_flip__: Boolean. Randomly flip inputs horizontally.
+    - __vertical_flip__: Boolean. Randomly flip inputs vertically.
+    - __rescale__: rescaling factor. Defaults to None. If None or 0, no rescaling is applied,
+            otherwise we multiply the data by the value provided (before applying
+            any other transformation).
+    - __dim_ordering__: One of {"th", "tf"}.
+        "tf" mode means that the images should have shape `(samples, width, height, channels)`,
+        "th" mode means that the images should have shape `(samples, channels, width, height)`.
+        It defaults to the `image_dim_ordering` value found in your
+        Keras config file at `~/.keras/keras.json`.

+- __Methods__:
+    - __fit(X)__: Compute the internal data stats related to the data-dependent transformations, based on an array of sample data.
+        Only required if featurewise_center or featurewise_std_normalization or zca_whitening.

+            - __save_prefix__: str (default: `''`). Prefix to use for filenames of saved pictures (only relevant if `save_to_dir` is set).
+            - __save_format__: one of "png", "jpeg" (only relevant if `save_to_dir` is set). Default: "jpeg".
+        - __yields__: Tuples of `(x, y)` where `x` is a numpy array of image data and `y` is a numpy array of corresponding labels.
+            The generator loops indefinitely.
+    - __flow_from_directory(directory)__: Takes the path to a directory, and generates batches of augmented/normalized data. Yields batches indefinitely, in an infinite loop.

+            - __class_mode__: one of "categorical", "binary", "sparse" or None. Default: "categorical". Determines the type of label arrays that are returned: "categorical" will be 2D one-hot encoded labels, "binary" will be 1D binary labels, "sparse" will be 1D integer labels. If None, no labels are returned (the generator will only yield batches of image data, which is useful to use `model.predict_generator()`, `model.evaluate_generator()`, etc.).
+            - __batch_size__: size of the batches of data (default: 32).

+# Wrappers for the Scikit-Learn API
+
+You can use `Sequential` Keras models (single-input only) as part of your Scikit-Learn workflow via the wrappers found at `keras.wrappers.scikit_learn.py`.
+
+There are two wrappers available:
+
+`keras.wrappers.scikit_learn.KerasClassifier(build_fn=None, **sk_params)`, which implements the Scikit-Learn classifier interface,
+
+`keras.wrappers.scikit_learn.KerasRegressor(build_fn=None, **sk_params)`, which implements the Scikit-Learn regressor interface.
+
+### Arguments
+
+- __build_fn__: callable function or class instance
+- __sk_params__: model parameters & fitting parameters
+
+`build_fn` should construct, compile and return a Keras model, which
+will then be used to fit/predict. One of the following
+three values could be passed to build_fn:
+
+1. A function
+2. An instance of a class that implements the __call__ method
+3. None. This means you implement a class that inherits from either
+`KerasClassifier` or `KerasRegressor`. The __call__ method of the
+present class will then be treated as the default build_fn.
+
+`sk_params` takes both model parameters and fitting parameters. Legal model
+parameters are the arguments of `build_fn`. Note that like all other
+estimators in scikit-learn, 'build_fn' should provide default values for
+its arguments, so that you could create the estimator without passing any
+values to `sk_params`.
+
+`sk_params` could also accept parameters for calling `fit`, `predict`,
+`predict_proba`, and `score` methods (e.g., `nb_epoch`, `batch_size`).
+fitting (predicting) parameters are selected in the following order:
+
+1. Values passed to the dictionary arguments of
+`fit`, `predict`, `predict_proba`, and `score` methods
+2. Values passed to `sk_params`
+3. The default values of the `keras.models.Sequential`
+`fit`, `predict`, `predict_proba` and `score` methods
+
+When using scikit-learn's `grid_search` API, legal tunable parameters are
+those you could pass to `sk_params`, including fitting parameters.
+In other words, you could use `grid_search` to search for the best
+`batch_size` or `nb_epoch` as well as the model parameters.

+## Model visualization
+
+The `keras.utils.visualize_util` module provides utility functions to plot
+a Keras model (using graphviz).

+This will plot a graph of the model and save it to a file:
+```python

+`plot` takes two optional arguments:
+
+- `show_shapes` (defaults to False) controls whether output shapes are shown in the graph.
+- `show_layer_names` (defaults to True) controls whether layer names are shown in the graph.
+
+You can also directly obtain the `pydot.Graph` object and render it yourself,

+'''The example demonstrates how to write custom layers for Keras.

+We build a custom activation layer called 'Antirectifier',

+We need to specify two methods: `get_output_shape_for` and `call`.
+
+Note that the same result can also be achieved via a Lambda layer.
+
+Because our custom layer is written with primitives from the Keras
+backend (`K`), our code can run both on TensorFlow and Theano.

+
+Notes:
+
+- With default word, sentence, and query vector sizes, the GRU model achieves:
+  - 100% test accuracy on QA1 in 20 epochs (2 seconds per epoch on CPU)
+  - 50% test accuracy on QA2 in 20 epochs (16 seconds per epoch on CPU)
+In comparison, the Facebook paper achieves 50% and 20% for the LSTM baseline.
+
+- The task does not traditionally parse the question separately. This likely
+improves accuracy and is a good example of merging two RNNs.
+
+- The word vector embeddings are not shared between the story and question RNNs.
+
+- See how the accuracy changes given 10,000 training samples (en-10k) instead
+of only 1000. 1000 was used in order to be comparable to the original paper.
+
+- Experiment with GRU, LSTM, and JZS1-3 as they give subtly different results.
+
+- The length and noise (i.e. 'useless' story components) impact the ability for
+LSTMs / GRUs to provide the correct answer. Given only the supporting facts,
+these RNNs can achieve 100% accuracy on many tasks. Memory networks and neural
+networks that use attentional processes can efficiently search through this
+noise to find the relevant statements, improving performance substantially.
+This becomes especially obvious on QA2 and QA3, both far longer than QA1.

+'''This example uses a convolutional stack followed by a recurrent stack
+and a CTC logloss function to perform optical character recognition
+of generated text images. I have no evidence of whether it actually
+learns general shapes of text, or just is able to recognize all
+the different fonts thrown at it...the purpose is more to demonstrate CTC
+inside of Keras.  Note that the font list may need to be updated
+for the particular OS in use.
+
+This starts off with 4 letter words. After 10 or so epochs, CTC
+learns translational invariance, so longer words and groups of words
+with spaces are gradually fed in.  This gradual increase in difficulty
+is handled using the TextImageGenerator class which is both a generator
+class for test/train data and a Keras callback class. Every 10 epochs
+the wordlist that the generator draws from increases in difficulty.
+
+The table below shows normalized edit distance values. Theano uses
+a slightly different CTC implementation, so some Theano-specific
+hyperparameter tuning would be needed to get it to match Tensorflow.

+"""This is an example of using Hierarchical RNN (HRNN) to classify MNIST digits.
+
+HRNNs can learn across multiple levels of temporal hiearchy over a complex sequence.
+Usually, the first recurrent layer of an HRNN encodes a sentence (e.g. of word vectors)
+into a  sentence vector. The second recurrent layer then encodes a sequence of
+such vectors (encoded by the first layer) into a document vector. This
+document vector is considered to preserve both the word-level and
+sentence-level structure of the context.
+
+# References
+    - [A Hierarchical Neural Autoencoder for Paragraphs and Documents](https://web.stanford.edu/~jurafsky/pubs/P15-1107.pdf)
+        Encodes paragraphs and documents with HRNN.
+        Results have shown that HRNN outperforms standard
+        RNNs and may play some role in more sophisticated generation tasks like
+        summarization or question answering.
+    - [Hierarchical recurrent neural network for skeleton based action recognition](http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=7298714)
+        Achieved state-of-the-art results on skeleton based action recognition with 3 levels
+        of bidirectional HRNN combined with fully connected layers.
+
+In the below MNIST example the first LSTM layer first encodes every
+column of pixels of shape (28, 1) to a column vector of shape (128,). The second LSTM
+layer encodes then these 28 column vectors of shape (28, 128) to a image vector
+representing the whole image. A final Dense layer is added for prediction.
+
+After 5 epochs: train acc: 0.9858, val acc: 0.9864

+'Net2Net: Accelerating Learning via Knowledge Transfer'
+by Tianqi Chen, Ian Goodfellow, and Jonathon Shlens
+
+arXiv:1511.05641v4 [cs.LG] 23 Apr 2016
+http://arxiv.org/abs/1511.05641
+
+Notes
+- What:
+  + Net2Net is a group of methods to transfer knowledge from a teacher neural
+    net to a student net,so that the student net can be trained faster than
+    from scratch.
+  + The paper discussed two specific methods of Net2Net, i.e. Net2WiderNet
+    and Net2DeeperNet.
+  + Net2WiderNet replaces a model with an equivalent wider model that has
+    more units in each hidden layer.
+  + Net2DeeperNet replaces a model with an equivalent deeper model.
+  + Both are based on the idea of 'function-preserving transformations of
+    neural nets'.
+- Why:
+  + Enable fast exploration of multiple neural nets in experimentation and
+    design process,by creating a series of wider and deeper models with
+    transferable knowledge.
+  + Enable 'lifelong learning system' by gradually adjusting model complexity
+    to data availability,and reusing transferable knowledge.
+
+Experiments
+- Teacher model: a basic CNN model trained on MNIST for 3 epochs.
+- Net2WiderNet exepriment:
+  + Student model has a wider Conv2D layer and a wider FC layer.
+  + Comparison of 'random-padding' vs 'net2wider' weight initialization.
+  + With both methods, student model should immediately perform as well as
+    teacher model, but 'net2wider' is slightly better.
+- Net2DeeperNet experiment:
+  + Student model has an extra Conv2D layer and an extra FC layer.
+  + Comparison of 'random-init' vs 'net2deeper' weight initialization.
+  + Starting performance of 'net2deeper' is better than 'random-init'.
+- Hyper-parameters:
+  + SGD with momentum=0.9 is used for training teacher and student models.
+  + Learning rate adjustment: it's suggested to reduce learning rate
+    to 1/10 for student model.
+  + Addition of noise in 'net2wider' is used to break weight symmetry
+    and thus enable full capacity of student models. It is optional
+    when a Dropout layer is used.
+
+Results
+- Tested with 'Theano' backend and 'th' image_dim_ordering.
+- Running on GPU GeForce GTX 980M
+- Performance Comparisons - validation loss values during first 3 epochs:
+(1) teacher_model:             0.075    0.041    0.041
+(2) wider_random_pad:          0.036    0.034    0.032

+'''Trains a stacked what-where autoencoder built on residual blocks on the
+MNIST dataset.  It exemplifies two influential methods that have been developed
+in the past few years.
+
+The first is the idea of properly "unpooling." During any max pool, the
+exact location (the "where") of the maximal value in a pooled receptive field
+is lost, however it can be very useful in the overall reconstruction of an
+input image.  Therefore, if the "where" is handed from the encoder
+to the corresponding decoder layer, features being decoded can be "placed" in
+the right location, allowing for reconstructions of much higher fidelity.

+Junbo Zhao, Michael Mathieu, Ross Goroshin, Yann LeCun
+https://arxiv.org/abs/1506.02351v8
+
+The second idea exploited here is that of residual learning.  Residual blocks
+ease the training process by allowing skip connections that give the network
+the ability to be as linear (or non-linear) as the data sees fit.  This allows
+for much deep networks to be easily trained.  The residual element seems to
+be advantageous in the context of this example as it allows a nice symmetry
+between the encoder and decoder.  Normally, in the decoder, the final
+projection to the space where the image is reconstructed is linear, however
+this does not have to be the case for a residual block as the degree to which
+its output is linear or non-linear is determined by the data it is fed.
+However, in order to cap the reconstruction in this example, a hard softmax is
+applied as a bias because we know the MNIST digits are mapped to [0,1].

+
+# Details
+
+Style transfer consists in generating an image
+with the same "content" as a base image, but with the
+"style" of a different picture (typically artistic).
+
+This is achieved through the optimization of a loss function
+that has 3 components: "style loss", "content loss",
+and "total variation loss":
+
+- The total variation loss imposes local spatial continuity between
+the pixels of the combination image, giving it visual coherence.
+
+- The style loss is where the deep learning keeps in --that one is defined
+using a deep convolutional neural network. Precisely, it consists in a sum of
+L2 distances between the Gram matrices of the representations of
+the base image and the style reference image, extracted from
+different layers of a convnet (trained on ImageNet). The general idea
+is to capture color/texture information at different spatial
+scales (fairly large scales --defined by the depth of the layer considered).
+
+ - The content loss is a L2 distance between the features of the base
+image (extracted from a deep layer) and the features of the combination image,
+keeping the generated image close enough to the original one.

-    We loop over words in a dataset, and for each word, we look at a context window around the word. 
-    We generate pairs of (pivot_word, other_word_from_same_context) with label 1,
-    and pairs of (pivot_word, random_word) with label 0 (skip-gram method).
-
-    We use the layer WordContextProduct to learn embeddings for the word couples,
-    and compute a proximity score between the embeddings (= p(context|word)),
-    trained with our positive and negative labels.
-
-    We then use the weights computed by WordContextProduct to encode words 
-    and demonstrate that the geometry of the embedding space 
-    captures certain useful semantic properties.
-
-    Read more about skip-gram in this particularly gnomic paper by Mikolov et al.: 
-        http://arxiv.org/pdf/1301.3781v3.pdf
-
-    Note: you should run this on GPU, otherwise training will be quite slow. 
-    On a EC2 GPU instance, expect 3 hours per 10e6 comments (~10e8 words) per epoch with dim_proj=256.
-    Should be much faster on a modern GPU.

+'''Inception V3 model for Keras.
+
+Note that the ImageNet weights provided are from a model that had not fully converged.
+Inception v3 should be able to reach 6.9% top-5 error, but our model
+only gets to 7.8% (same as a fully-converged ResNet 50).
+For comparison, VGG16 only gets to 9.9%, quite a bit worse.
+
+Also, do note that the input image format for this model is different than for
+other models (299x299 instead of 224x224), and that the input preprocessing function
+is also different.

+
+    This callback writes a log for TensorBoard, which allows
+    you to visualize dynamic graphs of your training and test
+    metrics, as well as activation histograms for the different
+    layers in your model.
+
+    TensorBoard is a visualization tool provided with TensorFlow.
+
+    If you have installed TensorFlow with pip, you should be able
+    to launch TensorBoard from the command line:
+    ```
+    tensorboard --logdir=/full_path_to_your_logs
+    ```
+    You can find more information about TensorBoard
+    [here](https://www.tensorflow.org/versions/master/how_tos/summaries_and_tensorboard/index.html).
+
+    # Arguments
+        log_dir: the path of the directory where to save the log
+            files to be parsed by Tensorboard
+        histogram_freq: frequency (in epochs) at which to compute activation
+            histograms for the layers of the model. If set to 0,
+            histograms won't be computed.
+        write_graph: whether to visualize the graph in Tensorboard.
+            The log file can become quite large when
+            write_graph is set to True.
