# Fast-Layers Fast-Layers is a python library for Keras and Tensorflow users: The fastest way to build complex deep neural network architectures with sequential models

## Introduction Tensorflow’s sequential model is a very intuitive way to start learning about Deep Neural Networks. However it is quite hard to dive into more complex networks without learning more about Keras.

Well it won’t be hard anymore with Fast-layers! Define your Connectors and Pipes to start building complex layers in a sequential fashion.

I create fast-layers for beginners who wants to build more advanced networks and for experimented users who wants to quickly build and test complex module architectures.

#### class Sequence:

Arguments:

name: str, positional arg inputs: str: name of input pipe/connector | list: names of input pipes/connectors, positional arg sequence=None: list of keras.layers objects, is_output_layer=False, trainable=True,

Attributes:

inputs: str or list of input names. sequence: list of keras.layers objects, is_output_layer: True if this is the output Sequence of a Layer object.

Methods:

call(x, training=False): by calling the sequence through __call__(), computes x. self_build(): build the layers of the sequence into this Sequence object.

#### class Layer:

Arguments:

sequences: list of sequences, trainable=True, n_iteration_error=50: max number of iteration permitted in the computation loop before break

Attributes:

names: list of sequences names trainable: True if the weights of this layer are trainable. sequences: list of sequences first_call=True: False means the Layer object has been called and n_iteration_error: max number of iteration permitted in the computation loop before break

Methods:

init_layer(sequences): Takes a list of sequences and initialize the layer. Is called on __init__() if the layer object has been instantiate with the argument sequences=*List of sequences* call(x, training=False): by calling the layer through __call__(), computes x.
