keras-remote 0.0.1

Run Keras models remotely on TPU seamlessly.

Keras Remote

Run Keras models remotely on TPU as seamlessly as running the same code locally.

Prerequisites

1. Google Cloud SDK: Install the gcloud CLI.
2. Authentication: Run gcloud auth login and gcloud auth application-default login.
3. Permissions: Ensure your GCP user has permissions to create and manage TPU VMs.

Installation

pip install -r requirements.txt

Running the Demo

The demo_train.py script demonstrates how to run a Keras model on a remote TPU.

# Optional: Set your GCP project and zone
export KERAS_REMOTE_PROJECT="your-project-id"
export KERAS_REMOTE_ZONE="us-central1-f"  # or other zones like europe-west4-a

python demo_train.py

Note: TPU availability varies by zone. If you encounter a RESOURCE_EXHAUSTED error, try a different zone or accelerator type (e.g., v2-8 vs v3-8).

The @keras_remote.run decorator handles:

1. Packaging your local code.
2. Provisioning (or finding) a TPU VM.
3. Uploading your code and dependencies.
4. Executing the function inside a Docker container on the TPU VM.
