TF-Keras (legacy)

tf-keras is the name given to Keras 2.x version. It is now hosted as a separate GitHub repo here. Though it’s a legacy framework, there are still 4.5k+ models hosted on the Hub. These models can be loaded using the huggingface_hub library. You must have either tf-keras or keras<3.x installed on your machine.

If you are interested in Keras 3.x support, check out this guide.

Once installed, you just need to use the from_pretrained_keras method to load a model from the Hub. Read more about from_pretrained_keras here.

from huggingface_hub import from_pretrained_keras model = from_pretrained_keras("keras-io/mobile-vit-xxs") prediction = model.predict(image) prediction = tf.squeeze(tf.round(prediction)) print(f'The image is a {classes[(np.argmax(prediction))]}!') <CopyLLMTxtMenu containerStyle="float: right; margin-left: 10px; display: inline-flex; position: relative; z-index: 10;"></CopyLLMTxtMenu> # The image is a sunflower!

You can also host your tf-keras model on the Hub. However, keep in mind that tf-keras is a legacy framework. To reach a maximum number of users, we recommend to create your model using Keras 3.x and share it natively as described above. For more details about uploading tf-keras models, check out push_to_hub_keras documentation.

from huggingface_hub import push_to_hub_keras push_to_hub_keras(model, "your-username/your-model-name", "your-tensorboard-log-directory", tags = ["object-detection", "some_other_tag"], **model_save_kwargs, )
