**tl;dr:** keras-pandas allows users to rapidly build and iterate on deep learning models.
Getting data formatted and into keras can be tedious, time consuming, and require domain expertise, whether your a
veteran or new to Deep Learning. `keras-pandas` overcomes these issues by (automatically) providing:
- **Data transformations**: A cleaned, transformed and correctly formatted `X` and `y` (good for keras, sklearn or any
other ML
platform)
- **Data piping**: Correctly formatted keras input, hidden and output layers to quickly start iterating on
These approaches are build on best in world approaches from practitioners, kaggle grand masters, papers, blog posts,
and coffee chats, to simple entry point into the world of deep learning, and a strong foundation for deep learning
experts.

## Quick Start
Let's build a model with the [lending club data set](https://www.lendingclub.com/info/download-data.action). This data set is
particularly fun because this data set contains a mix of text, categorical and numerical data types, and features a
lot of null values.
```bash
pip install --upgrade keras-pandas
```
```python
from keras import Model
from keras_pandas import lib
from keras_pandas.Automater import Automater
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
# Load data
observations = lib.load_lending_club()
# Train /test split
train_observations, test_observations = train_test_split(observations)
train_observations = train_observations.copy()
test_observations = test_observations.copy()
# List out variable types
data_type_dict = {'numerical': ['loan_amnt', 'annual_inc', 'open_acc', 'dti', 'delinq_2yrs',
'inq_last_6mths', 'mths_since_last_delinq', 'pub_rec', 'revol_bal',
'revol_util',
'total_acc', 'pub_rec_bankruptcies'],
'categorical': ['term', 'grade', 'emp_length', 'home_ownership', 'loan_status', 'addr_state',
'application_type', 'disbursement_method'],
'text': ['desc', 'purpose', 'title']}
output_var = 'loan_status'
# Create and fit Automater
auto = Automater(data_type_dict=data_type_dict, output_var=output_var)
auto.fit(train_observations)
# Transform data
train_X, train_y = auto.fit_transform(train_observations)
test_X, test_y = auto.transform(test_observations)
# Create and fit keras (deep learning) model.
x = auto.input_nub
x = auto.output_nub(x)
model = Model(inputs=auto.input_layers, outputs=x)
model.compile(optimizer='adam', loss=auto.suggest_loss())
```
And that's it! In a couple of lines, we've created a model that accepts a few dozen variables, and can create a world
class deep learning model
## Usage
### Installation
You can install `keras-pandas` with `pip`:
```bash
pip install -U keras-pandas
```
### Creating an Automater
The `Automater` object is the central object in `keras-pandas`. It accepts a dictionary of the format `{'datatype':
['var1', var2']}`
For example we could create an automater using the built in `numerical`, `categorical`, and `text` datatypes, by
calling:
```python
# List out variable types
data_type_dict = {'numerical': ['loan_amnt', 'annual_inc', 'open_acc', 'dti', 'delinq_2yrs',
'inq_last_6mths', 'mths_since_last_delinq', 'pub_rec', 'revol_bal',
'revol_util',
'total_acc', 'pub_rec_bankruptcies'],
'categorical': ['term', 'grade', 'emp_length', 'home_ownership', 'loan_status', 'addr_state',
'application_type', 'disbursement_method'],
'text': ['desc', 'purpose', 'title']}
output_var = 'loan_status'
# Create and fit Automater
auto = Automater(data_type_dict=data_type_dict, output_var=output_var)
```
As a side note, the response variable must be in one of the variable type lists (e.g. `loan_status` is in `categorical_vars`)
#### One variable type
If you only have one variable type, only use one variable type!
```python
# List out variable types
data_type_dict = {'categorical': ['term', 'grade', 'emp_length', 'home_ownership', 'loan_status', 'addr_state',
'application_type', 'disbursement_method']}
output_var = 'loan_status'
# Create and fit Automater
auto = Automater(data_type_dict=data_type_dict, output_var=output_var)
```
#### Multiple variable types
If you have multiple variable types, feel free to use all of them! Built in datatypes are listed in `Automater.datatype_handlers`
```python
# List out variable types
data_type_dict = {'numerical': ['loan_amnt', 'annual_inc', 'open_acc', 'dti', 'delinq_2yrs',
'inq_last_6mths', 'mths_since_last_delinq', 'pub_rec', 'revol_bal',
'revol_util',
'total_acc', 'pub_rec_bankruptcies'],
'categorical': ['term', 'grade', 'emp_length', 'home_ownership', 'loan_status', 'addr_state',
'application_type', 'disbursement_method'],
'text': ['desc', 'purpose', 'title']}
output_var = 'loan_status'
# Create and fit Automater
auto = Automater(data_type_dict=data_type_dict, output_var=output_var)
```
#### Custom datatypes
If there's a specific datatype you'd like to use that's not built in (such as images, videos, or geospatial), you can
include it by using `Automater`'s `datatype_handlers` parameter.
A template datatype can be found in `keras_pandas/data_types/Abstract.py`. Filling out this template will yield a new
datatype handler. If you're happy with your work and want to share your new datatype handler, create a PR (and check
out `contributing.md`)
#### No `output_var`
If your model doesn't need a response var, or your use case doesn't use `keras-pandas`'s output functionality, you
can skip the `output_var` by setting it to None
```python
# List out variable types
data_type_dict = {'categorical': ['term', 'grade', 'emp_length', 'home_ownership', 'loan_status', 'addr_state',
'application_type', 'disbursement_method']}
output_var = None
# Create and fit Automater
auto = Automater(data_type_dict=data_type_dict, output_var=output_var)
```
### Fitting the Automater
Before use, the `Automator` must be fit. The `fit()` method accepts a pandas DataFrame, which must contain all of the
columns listed during initialization.
```python
auto.fit(observations)
```
### Transforming data
Now, we can use our `Automater` to transform the dataset, from a pandas DataFrame to numpy objects properly formatted
for Keras's input and output layers.
```python
X, y = auto.transform(observations, df_out=False)
```
This will return two objects:
- `X`: An array, containing numpy object for each Keras input. This is generally one Keras input for each user
input variable.
- `y`: A numpy object, containing the response variable (if one was provided)
### Using input / output nubs
Setting up correctly formatted, heuristically 'good' input and output layers is often
- Tedious
- Time consuming
- Difficult for those new to Keras
With this in mind, `keras-pandas` provides correctly formatted input and output 'nubs'.
The input nub is correctly formatted to accept the output from `auto.transform()`. It contains one Keras Input layer
for each generated input, may contain addition layers, and has all input piplines joined with a `Concatenate` layer.
The output layer is correctly formatted to accept the response variable numpy object.

I enjoy bridging the gap between data science and engineering, to build and
deploy data products. I'm not currently pursuing contract work.
I've enjoyed building a unique combination of machine learning, deep learning, and software engineering skills. In my
previous work at Capital One and startups, I've has built authorization fraud, insider threat, and legal discovery
automation platforms. In each of these cases I've lead a team of data scientists and data engineers to enable and
elevate our client's business workflow (and capture some amazing data).
When I'm not knee deep in a code base, I can be found traveling, sharing my collection of Japanese teas, and playing
board games with my partner in Seattle.
