DeepCTR

DeepCTR is a Easy-to-use, Modular and Extendible package of deep-learning based CTR models along with lots of core components layers which can be used to easily build custom models.You can use any complex model with model.fit() ，and model.predict() .

Provide tf.keras.Model like interfaces for quick experiment. example
Provide tensorflow estimator interface for large scale data and distributed training. example
It is compatible with both tf 1.x and tf 2.x.
