Quick Start: Keras Convolutional Neural Networks for Kaggling

I’ve been messing around with a few things during my time off for the Holidays:

• Kaggle
  • This one, for the Nature Conservatory, specifically
• Keras
  • For using Convolution Neural Networks, without the headaches
• Jupyter Notebooks
  • For presenting data analysis results in Python
  • Also experimenting with whether I can port these to WordPress easily

So here’s a quick combination of these things, in the form of a simple guide to using Keras on the Nature Conservatory image recognition Kaggle.

Hopefully it serves as an easy introduction to get up and running with neural networks for this competition.
