Visualizing Keras neural networks with Net2Vis and Docker

Click for: original source

Visualizing the structure of your neural network is quite useful for publications, such as papers and blogs. Written by @MachineCurve (Christian).

Today, various tools exist for generating these visualizations – allowing engineers and researchers to generate them either by hand, or even (partially) automated.

In this blog post, we’ll take a look at Net2Vis. Firstly, we’ll inspect the challenges of current tools in more detail, followed by the introduction of Net2Vis. We then suggest a different way of installing it, by using our Docker-based installation process, saving you quite some time on installing dependencies. Subsequently, we’ll talk you through our experience with Net2Vis – and show you what it’s capable of.

The article then walks over these topics:

  • What is Net2Vis?
  • Using Net2Vis online
  • How does Net2Vis work?

Often, print media requires horizontal visualizations, maintaining the natural flow of reading, while still conveying all important information. Very useful for anybody interested into machine learning. Nice one!
