I am trying to use keras library installed in Winpython version 3.4.4.amd64 in RStudio (via reticulate and kerasR libraries). I work on windows 7 64bit machine. I also tried the same with Winpython version 3.6.1.amd64
What I have tried in R:
# diagnostics
library(reticulate)
# reticulate::use_python("PATH_TO_PYTHON")
path_to_python <- "C:\\dev\\WinPython3.4\\python-3.4.4.amd64"
use_python(path_to_python)
py_module_available("keras")
[1] FALSE # it responds with TRUE for eg. matplotlib
py_config()
# python: C:\dev\WinPython3.4\python-3.4.4.amd64/python.exe
# libpython: C:/dev/WinPython3.4/python-3.4.4.amd64/python34.dll
# pythonhome: C:\dev\WINPYT~1.4\PYTHON~1.AMD
# version: 3.4.4 (v3.4.4:737efcadf5a6, Dec 20 2015, 20:20:57) [MSC # v.1600 64 bit (AMD64)]
# Architecture: 64bit
# numpy: C:\dev\WINPYT~1.4\PYTHON~1.AMD\lib\site-packages\numpy
# numpy_version: 1.11.3
When I use Spyder IDE and load keras, it does not throw errors at me. Earlier I took care to modify .keras json file to use theano and not tensorflow.
When I try other libs, eg py_module_available("theano") I get TRUE.
I have no idea what I miss here. I would like to use keras with library(kerasR). I am at work and cannot modify registry and environment paths. Would it be the reason?
When I try
reticulate::import("keras")
I get:
Error in py_module_import(module, convert = convert) :
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'write'
Detailed traceback:
File "C:\dev\WINPYT~1.4\PYTHON~1.AMD\lib\site-packages\keras\__init__.py", line 2, in <module>
from . import backend
File "C:\dev\WINPYT~1.4\PYTHON~1.AMD\lib\site-packages\keras\backend\__init__.py", line 66, in <module>
sys.stderr.write('Using TensorFlow backend.\n')
I tried the same for 3.6.1.amd64 with the same result. I am out of ideas, tkanks very much for all suggestions.
Regarding installation of Keras/theano plz check this thread in SO
How do I install Keras and Theano in Anaconda Python on Windows?
Once done restart your comp....then lets try to connect kerasR from R studio as given below (sequentially)...........
########## Deep learning installation & initiation #### First activate environment where keras/theano were installed via anaconda prompt :
(C:\Users\ADMIN\Anaconda3) C:\Users\ADMIN>activate mydeeplearning # mydeeplearning is the my environment name where i installed python keras theano etc.....
devtools::install_github("statsmaths/kerasR")
devtools::install_github("rstudio/reticulate")# install the latest reticulate package as it solves some errors/bugs
library(kerasR)
library(reticulate)
py_available(initialize = FALSE) # should give TRUE
use_python("C:/Users/ADMIN/Anaconda3/envs/mydeeplearning/python.exe") # plz change it to your Path
keras_init() # will give `successfully loaded keras`
# further checks if everything is working
keras_available() # should give `[1] TRUE`
reticulate::py_config() # should show u]the correct python path which we tried changing initially using `use_python("C:/Users/ADMIN/Anaconda3/envs/mydeeplearning/python.exe") `
python: C:/Users/ADMIN/Anaconda3/envs/mydeeplearning/python.exe
libpython: C:/Users/ADMIN/Anaconda3/envs/mydeeplearning/python35.dll

reticulate::py_module_available("keras") #should give `[1] TRUE`
reticulate::py_available()#should give `[1] TRUE`
reticulate::import("keras.models")# should give `Module(keras.models)`
That should do it....Took me almost entire day to install and figure out the errors....But now feeling elated.....
