Visualization of model architecture

[kevinykuo]

Something like https://keras.io/visualization/ or https://greta-dev.github.io/greta/get_started.html#plotting

Saves manual draw.io work in papers and presentations.

+1, this is on our short list of things to do to improve the R interface!

[kevinykuo]

@skeydan has this been implemented?

[skeydan]

not to my knowledge; - @jjallaire could you comment on this?

[kevinykuo]

Reopening but please close if it's tracked elsewhere.

[jjallaire]

No, it hasn't yet been implemented (we were bulk closing old/inactive issues). We'll leave it open.

I'm playing with some ideas at https://github.com/andrie/deepviz. I didn't set out to make a replacement for plot_graph() but my ideas could be extended in that direction.

[andrie]

The plot_model() function now supports sequential as well as networked models. See the examples in the documentation at https://andrie.github.io/deepviz/index.html

[skeydan]

@andrie @kevinykuo should we consider this implemented/solved and close this issue?

[andrie]

I don't think so. There are open issues on the deepviz package, and that work hasn't been incorporated into keras, or pulled into this project.

[andrie]

Today I fixed the bugs in deepviz (that I could reproduce). These were due mainly to a change in the internal representation of a network model, and how I extracted the layer information from get_config().

I pushed a new version to https://github.com/andrie/deepviz

Let me know if you discover any new issues.

I think https://github.com/lordmahyar/keras-visualizer seems an excellent Python to create R bindings to, as deepviz is not yet up to speed.
