Fabrik is an online collaborative platform to build, visualize and train deep learning models via a simple drag-and-drop interface. It allows researchers to collaboratively develop and debug models using a web GUI that supports importing, editing and exporting networks written in widely popular frameworks like Caffe, Keras, and TensorFlow.

This app is presently under active development and we welcome contributions. Please check out our issues thread to find things to work on, or ping us on Gitter.

How to setup

1. First set up a virtualenv

   sudo apt-get install python-pip python-dev python-virtualenv 
   virtualenv --system-site-packages ~/Fabrik
   source ~/Fabrik/bin/activate
   

2. Clone the repository

   git clone --recursive https://github.com/Cloud-CV/Fabrik.git
   

3. If you have Caffe, Keras and Tensorflow already installed on your computer, skip this step

   • For Linux users

     cd Fabrik/requirements
     yes Y | sh caffe_tensorflow_keras_install.sh
     

     Open your ~/.bashrc file and append this line at the end

     export PYTHONPATH=~/caffe/caffe/python:$PYTHONPATH
     

     Save, exit and then run

     source ~/.bash_profile
     cd .. 
     

   • For Mac users
     • Install Caffe
     • Install Tensorflow
     • Install Keras

4. Install dependencies

• For developers:

  pip install -r requirements/dev.txt
  

• Others:

  pip install -r requirements/common.txt
  

5. Install postgres >= 9.5

• Setup postgres database

  • Start postgresql by typing sudo service postgresql start
  • Now login as user postgres by running sudo -u postgres psql and type the commands below

    CREATE DATABASE fabrik;
    CREATE USER admin WITH PASSWORD 'fabrik';
    ALTER ROLE admin SET client_encoding TO 'utf8';
    ALTER ROLE admin SET default_transaction_isolation TO 'read committed';
    ALTER ROLE admin SET timezone TO 'UTC';
    ALTER USER admin CREATEDB;
  

  • Exit psql by typing in \q and hitting enter.

• Migrate

  
  python manage.py makemigrations caffe_app
  python manage.py migrate
  

6. Install node modules

npm install
sudo npm install -g webpack
webpack --progress --watch --colors

Usage

python manage.py runserver

Example

• Use example/tensorflow/GoogleNet.pbtxt for tensorflow import
• Use example/caffe/GoogleNet.prototxt for caffe import
• Use example/keras/vgg16.json for keras import
