    # Machine Learning
    
    This section overviews machine learning frameworks and libraries available on the clusters.
    
    ## TensorFlow
    
    TensorFlow is an end-to-end open source platform for machine learning. It has a comprehensive, flexible ecosystem of tools, libraries, and community resources that lets researchers push the state-of-the-art in ML and developers easily build and deploy ML powered applications. For more information, see the [official website][a].
    
    For the list of available versions, see the [TensorFlow][1] section:
    
    ## Theano
    
    Theano is a Python library that allows you to define, optimize, and evaluate mathematical expressions involving multi-dimensional arrays efficiently. It can use GPUs and perform efficient symbolic differentiation. For more information, see the [official webpage][b] (GitHub).
    
    For the list of available versions, type:
    
    ```console
    $ ml av Theano
    ```
    
    ## Keras
    
    Keras is an API designed for human beings, not machines. Keras follows best practices for reducing cognitive load: it offers consistent & simple APIs, it minimizes the number of user actions required for common use cases, and it provides clear & actionable error messages. It also has extensive documentation and developer guides. For more information, see the [official website][c].
    
    For the list of available versions, type:
    
    ```console
    $ ml av Keras
    ```

    It is necessary to load the correct NumPy / SciPy modules along with the Tensorflow one.
    
    Obsolete 2021-03-31
    ## Todo
    Salomon -> Theano/0.9.0-Python-3.6.1 does NOT include several mandatory modules, like NumPy and SciPy
    Salomon -> Keras/2.0.5-Theano-1.2.0-Python-3.6.1 loads Theano/0.9.0-Python-3.6.1, meaning it also does not include mandatory librarie
    
    Salomon -> /apps/modules/math/Keras/2.3.0-Tensorflow-1.13.1-Python-3.7.2 works, others miss NumPy or other libraries
    
    What seems to work on Salomon:
    for theano:
    /apps/modules/python/Theano/1.0.1-Py-3.6, and Keras with this backend
    
    for keras:
    /apps/modules/math/Keras/2.3.0-Tensorflow-1.13.1-Python-3.7.2
    /apps/modules/python/Keras/2.1.4-Py-3.6-Tensorflow-1.6.0rc0
