Course software for introductory deep learning
The practicals can be done in three ways:
- Laptop:
- JupyterLab:
- Curnagl:
Laptop
Python installation
Here are some instructions for installing Keras with TensorFlow at the backend (for Python3), and other libaries, on your laptop. All the required libraries are listed here:
https://c4science.ch/source/DL_INTRO/browse/master/requirements.txt
You may copy/paste this list of libraries in a text editor and name the file "requirements.txt" or use Git:
$ git clone https://c4science.ch/source/DL_INTRO.git
Then you may use a Python IDE (e.g. Jupyter Notebook or PyCharm) or a terminal to install the libraries (see below).
Use a Python IDE (e.g. Jupyter Notebook or PyCharm)
Launch a Python IDE.
HOW DO WE CREATE A VIRTUAL ENVIRONMENT WITHOUT A TERMINAL ?
$ python -m venv mlcourse
$ source mlcourse/bin/activate
$ pip install -r DL_INTRO/requirements.txt
To check that Tensorflow was installed:
$ python -c 'import tensorflow; print(tensorflow.version.VERSION)'
There might be a warning message (see above) and the output should be something like "2.8.0".
You can terminate the current session:
$ deactivate
$ exit
Use your terminal
Open your terminal.
$ python -m venv mlcourse
$ source mlcourse/bin/activate
$ pip install -r DL_INTRO/requirements.txt
To check that Tensorflow was installed:
$ python -c 'import tensorflow; print(tensorflow.version.VERSION)'
There might be a warning message (see above) and the output should be something like "2.8.0".
You can terminate the current session:
$ deactivate
$ exit
R installation
Here are some instructions for installing Keras with TensorFlow at the backend, and other libaries, on your laptop. The R keras is actually an interface to the Python Keras. In simple terms, this means that the keras R package allows you to enjoy the benefit of R programming while having access to the capabilities of the Python Keras package.
IMPORTANT: Since Keras is using Python in the background, you need some development tools in your computer. For example, if you have a Mac you need to install Xcode. For Windows users, you need to install Rtools (and possibly also Anaconda).
Run R in your terminal or launch RStudio.
REMARK: The R libraries will be installed in your home directory. To allow it, you must answer yes to the questions:
Would you like to use a personal library instead? (yes/No/cancel) yes
Would you like to create a personal library to install packages into? (yes/No/cancel) yes
And select Switzerland for the CRAN mirror.

> library(keras)

To check that Keras was properly installed:

There might be a warning message (see above) and the output should be something like "TRUE".
You can terminate the current R session:

JupyterLab
Python installation
Here are some instructions for installing Keras with TensorFlow at the backend (for Python3), and other libaries, on the JupyterLab of the EPFL.
Go to the webpage: https://noto.epfl.ch/
Use your Switch AAI login: University of Lausanne
Enter you login and password associated to your Switch edu-ID (and NOT your UNIL credentials).
Select Git / Clone a Repository (at the top of the window) and enter the following URI:
https://c4science.ch/source/DL_INTRO.git
Python installation
Click on the Bash square button in the Notebook panel, and type in the first cell:
my_venvs_create mlcourse
Click on "Run the selected cells and advance" (the right arrow).
Then type and run the following commands in the cells:
my_venvs_activate mlcourse
pip install -r DL_INTRO/requirements.txt
my_kernels_create py3_dl "Py3 DL"
my_venvs_deactivate
Close the tab.
The installation is complete !
To do the practicals, click on the "Py3 DL" square button in the Notebook panel.

The R keras is actually an interface toin the PythonNotebook Keras. In simple terms, this means that the keras R package allows you to enjoy the benefit of R programming while having access to the capabilities of the Python Keras package. Open a terminal on your laptoppanel, and type (if you are located outside the UNIL you will need to activate the UNIL VPN):
$ ssh -Y < my unil username >@curnagl.dcsr.unil.ch
Here and in what follows we added the brackets < > to emphasize the username, but you should not write them in the command.first Enter your UNIL password.cell:
For Windows users with the MobaXterm terminal: Launch MobaXterm, click on Start local terminal and type the command ssh -Y < my unil username >@curnagl.dcsr.unil.ch. Enter your UNIL password. Then you should be on Curnagl. Alternatively, launch MobaXterm, click on the session icon and then click on the SSH icon. Fill in: remote host = curnagl.dcsr.unil.ch, specify username = < my unil username >. Finally, click ok, enter your password. If you have the question “do you want to save password ?” Say No if your are not sure. Then you should be on Curnagl.

$ mkdir < my unil username >

For convenience, you will install the libraries from the frontal node to do the practicals. Note however that it is normally recommended to install libraries from the interactive partition by using (Sinteractive -m 4G -c 1).
$ module load gcc python/3.8.8 r/4.0.5
$ R

Curnagl
For the practicals, it will be convenient to be able to copy/paste text from a web page to the terminal on Curnagl. So please make sure you can do it before the course. You also need to make sure that your terminal has a X server.
For Mac users, download and install XQuartz (X server): https://www.xquartz.org/
For Windows users, download and install MobaXterm terminal (which includes a X server). Click on the "Installer edition" button on the following webpage: https://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/download-home-edition.html
For Linux users, you do not need to install anything.
When testing if Keras was properly installed (see below) you may receive a warning

You should not worry. By default, Keras is trying to use GPUs and since there are no GPUs, it writes a warning and decides to use CPUs (which is enough for our course).
