, for resuming an interrupted fit()
call.
The merging family of layers (layer_add
, layer_concatenate
, etc.) gain the ability to accept layers in ...
, allowing for easier composition of residual blocks with the pipe %>%
. e.g. something like this now works:
model$get_config()
method now returns an R object that can be safely serialized to rds.
keras_array()
now reflects unconverted Python objects. This enables passing objects like pandas.Series()
to fit()
and evaluate()
methods. (#1341)
new_model_class()
new_layer_class()
new_callback_class()
new_metric_class()
new_loss_class()

assignment pipe from magrittr is exported.
format()
method for keras models (and derivative methods print()
, summary()
, str()
, and py_str()
):
compact
. If TRUE
(the default) white-space only lines are stripped out of model.summary()
.freeze_weights()
and unfreeze_weights()
:
which
argument that can accept layer names (as character strings), an integer vector, a boolean vector, or a function that returns a boolean when called with a layer. (see updated examples in ?freeze_weights
from
and to
arguments gain the ability to accept negative integers, to specify layers counting from the end of the layers list.get_weights()
gains a trainable
argument that can accept TRUE
or FALSE

or similar). Appropriate names for the supplied objects are automatically inferred.
Fixed an issue where negative values less than -1 supplied to axis
arguments were selecting the wrong axis.

gains the ability to accept negative values for the index
argument.
Fixed warning from create_layer_wrapper()
when the custom layer didn’t have an overridden initialize
or __init__
method.
min_value
and max_value
gain default values of NULL
, can be omitted. NULL
is taken as -Inf or Inf, respectively.axis
argument can be omitted, in which case all axes of size 1 are dropped.n
argument can now be supplied as a tensor.k_unstack()

, summary
) now accept a width
argument.
evaluate()
, fit()
, and predict()
methods for keras Models now default to verbose = "auto"
, with verbosity adjusted appropriately based on calls to keras$utils$disable_interactive_logging()
, and contexts like ParameterServerStrategy
.
install_keras()
now accepts version = "release-cpu"
as a valid specification.
Breaking change: The semantics of passing a named list to keras_model()
have changed.
Previously, keras_model()
would unname()
supplied inputs
and outputs
. Then, if a named list was passed to subsequent fit()
/evaluate()
/call()
/predict()
invocations, matching of x
and y
was done to the model’s input and outpt tensor$name
’s. Now, matching is done to names()
of inputs
and/or outputs
supplied to keras_model()
. Call unname()
on inputs
and outputs
to restore the old behavior, e.g.: keras_model(unname(inputs), unname(outputs))
keras_model()
can now accept a named list for multi-input and/or multi-output models. The named list is converted to a dict
in python. (Requires Tensorflow >= 2.4, Python >= 3.7).
inputs
is a named list:
call()
, fit()
, evaluate()
, and predict()
methods can also accept a named list for x
, with names matching to the names of inputs
when the model was constructed. Positional matching of x
is still also supported (requires python 3.7+).outputs
is a named list:
fit()
and evaluate()
methods can only accept a named list for y
, with names matching to the names of outputs
when the model was constructed.New layer layer_depthwise_conv_1d()
.
Models gain format()
and print()
S3 methods for compatibility with the latest reticulate. Both are powered by model$summary()
.
summary()
method for Models gains arguments expand_nested
and show_trainable
, both default to FALSE
.
keras_model_custom()
is soft deprecated. Please define custom models by subclassing keras$Model
directly using %py_class%
or R6::R6Class()
.
Fixed warning issued by k_random_binomial()
.
Fixed error raised when k_random_binomial()
was passed a non-floating dtype.
Added k_random_bernouli()
as an alias for k_random_binomial()
.
image_load()
gains a color_mode
argument.
Fixed issue where create_layer_wrapper()
would not include arguments with a NULL
default value in the returned wrapper.
Fixed issue in r_to_py.R6ClassGenerator
(and %py_class%
) where single-expression initialize
functions defined without {
would error.
Deprecated functions are no longer included in the package documentation index.
Default Tensorflow + Keras version is now 2.7.

layer_lstm()
and layer_gru()
: default value for recurrent_activation
changed from "hard_sigmoid"
to "sigmoid"
.

arguments.
Global pooling layers layer_global_{max,average}_pooling_{1,2,3}d()
gain a keepdims
argument with default value FALSE
.
Signatures for layer functions are in the process of being simplified. Standard layer arguments are moving to ...
where appropriate (and will need to be provided as named arguments). Standard layer arguments include: input_shape
, batch_input_shape
, batch_size
, dtype
, name
, trainable
, weights
. Layers updated: layer_global_{max,average}_pooling_{1,2,3}d()

as a synonym for NULL
in arguments that specify shape as a vector of dimension values, e.g., input_shape
, batch_input_shape
.
k_random_uniform()
now automatically casts minval
and maxval
to the output dtype.
install_keras()
gains arg with default pip_ignore_installed = TRUE
.
New family of preprocessing layers. These are the spiritual successor to the tfdatasets::step_*
family of data transformers (to be deprecated in a future release). Added a new vignette: “Working with Preprocessing Layers”. New functions:

output_mode
change: "binary"
is renamed to "multi_hot"
and "tf-idf"
is renamed to "tf_idf"
(backwards compatibility is preserved).output_mode = "int"
would incorrectly return a ragged tensor output shape.Existing layer instances gain the ability to be added to sequential models via a call. E.g.:
Functions in the merging layer family gain the ability to return a layer instance if the first argument inputs
is missing. (affected: layer_concatenate()
, layer_add()

, layer_multiply()
, layer_average()
, layer_maximum()
, layer_minimum()
, layer_dot()
)
%py_class%
gains the ability to delay initializing the Python session until first use. It is now safe to implement and export %py_class%
objects in an R package.
Fixed an issue in layer_input()
where passing a tensorflow DType
objects to argument dtype
would throw an error.
Fixed an issue in compile()
where passing an R function via an in-line call would result in an error from subsequent fit()
calls. (e.g., compile(loss = function(y_true, y_pred) my_loss(y_true, y_pred))
now succeeds)
clone_model()
gains a clone_function
argument that allows you to customize each layer as it is cloned.
Bumped minimum R version to 3.4. Expanded CI to test on all supported R version. Fixed regression that prevented package installation on R <= 3.4
Breaking changes (Tensorflow 2.6): - Note: The following breaking changes are specific to Tensorflow version 2.6.0. However, the keras R package maintains compatibility with multiple versions of Tensorflow/Keras. You can upgrade the R package and still preserve the previous behavior by installing a specific version of Tensorflow: keras::install_keras(tensorflow="2.4.0")
predict_proba()
and predict_classes()
were removed.model_to_yaml()
and model_from_yaml()

Better support for training models from data tensors in TensorFlow (e.g. Datasets, TFRecords). Add a related example script.
Add clone_model()
function, enabling to construct a new model, given an existing model to use as a template. Works even in a TensorFlow graph different from that of the original model.
Add target_tensors
argument in compile()
, enabling to use custom tensors or placeholders as model targets.
Add steps_per_epoch
argument in fit()
, enabling to train a model from data tensors in a way that is consistent with training from arrays. Similarly, add steps
argument in predict()
and evaluate()
.
Add layer_subtract()
layer function.
Add weighted_metrics
argument in compile to specify metric functions meant to take into account sample_weight
or class_weight
.
Enable stateful RNNs with CNTK.
install_keras()
function which installs both TensorFlow and Keras
Use keras package as default implementation rather than tf.contrib.keras
Training metrics plotted in realtime within the RStudio Viewer during fit
serialize_model()
and unserialize_model()
functions for saving Keras models as ‘raw’ R objects.
Automatically convert 64-bit R floats to backend default float type
Ensure that arrays passed to generator functions are normalized to C-order
to_numpy_array()
utility function for custom generators (enables custom generators to yield C-ordered arrays of the correct float type)
Added batch_size
and write_grads
arguments to callback_tensorboard()
Added return_state
argument to recurrent layers.
Don’t re-export install_tensorflow()
and tf_config()
from tensorflow package.
is_keras_available()
function to probe whether the Keras Python package is available in the current environment.
as.data.frame()
S3 method for Keras training history
Remove names from keras_model()
inputs
Return result of evaluate()
as named list
Write run metrics and evaluation data to tfruns
Provide hint to use r-tensorflow environment when importing keras
