Top AI Repos — open-source AI, indexed and scored

Top AI Repos tracks AI repositories on GitHub and answers two different questions about each one: is it moving right now, and would you bet a product on it.

# Keras 3: Deep Learning for Humans Keras 3 is a multi-backend deep learning framework, with support for JAX, TensorFlow, PyTorch, and OpenVINO (for inference-only). Effortlessly build and train models for computer vision, natural language processing, audio processing, timeseries forecasting, recommender systems, etc. - **Accelerated model development**: Ship deep learning solutions faster thanks to the high-level UX of Keras and the availability of easy-to-debug runtimes like PyTorch or JAX eager execution. - **State-of-the-art performance**: By picking the backend that is the fastest for your model architecture (often JAX!), leverage speedups ranging from 20% to 350% compared to other frameworks. [Benchmark here](https://keras.io/getting_started/benchmarks/). - **Datacenter-scale training**: Scale confidently from your laptop to large clusters of GPUs or TPUs. Join nearly three million developers, from burgeoning startups to global enterprises, in harnessing the power of Keras 3. ## Installation ### Install with pip Keras 3 is available on PyPI as `keras`. Note that Keras 2 remains available as the `tf-keras` package. 1. Install `keras`: ``` pip install keras --upgrade ``` 2. Install backend package(s). To use `keras`, you should also install the backend of choice: `tensorflow`, `jax`, or `torch`. Additionally, The `openvino` backend is available with support for model inference only. ### Local installation #### Minimal installation Keras 3 is compatible with Linux and macOS systems. For Windows users, we recommend using WSL2 to run Keras. To install a local development version: 1. Install dependencies: ``` pip install -r requirements.txt ``` 2. Run installation command from the root directory. ``` python pip_build.py --install ``` 3. Run API generation script when creating PRs that update `keras_export` public APIs: ``` ./shell/api_gen.sh ``` ## Backend Compatibility Table The following table lists the minimum supported versions of each backend for the latest stable release of Keras (v3.x): | Backend | Minimum Supported Version | |------------|---------------------------| | TensorFlow | 2.16.1 | | JAX | 0.4.20 | | PyTorch | 2.1.0 | | OpenVINO | 2025.3.0 | #### Adding GPU support The `requirements.txt` file will install a CPU-only version of TensorFlow, JAX, and PyTorch. For GPU support, we also provide a separate `requirements-{backend}-cuda.txt` for TensorFlow, JAX, and PyTorch. These install all CUDA dependencies via `pip` and expect a NVIDIA driver to be pre-installed. We recommend a clean Python environment for each backend to avoid CUDA version mismatches. As an example, here is how to create a JAX GPU environment with `conda`: ```shell conda create -y -n keras-jax python=3.10 conda activate keras-jax pip install -r requirements-jax-cuda.txt python pip_build.py --install ``` ## Configuring your backend You can export the environment variable `KERAS_BACKEND` or you can edit your local config file at `~/.keras/keras.json` to configure your backend. Available backend options are: `"tensorflow"`, `"jax"`, `"torch"`, `"openvino"`. Example: ``` export KERAS_BACKEND="jax" ``` In Colab, you can do: ```python import os os.environ["KERAS_BACKEND"] = "jax" import keras ``` **Note:** The backend must be configured before importing `keras`, and the backend cannot be changed after the package has been imported. **Note:** The OpenVINO backend is an inference-only backend, meaning it is designed only for running model predictions using `model.predict()` method. ## Backwards compatibility Keras 3 is intended to work as a drop-in replacement for `tf.keras` (when using the TensorFlow backend). Just take your existing `tf.keras` code, make sure that your calls to `model.save()` are using the up-to-date `.keras` format, and you're done. If your `tf.keras` model does not include custom components, you can start runn
