Introduction to the Python Deep Learning Library Theano

Last Updated on August 19, 2019

Theano is a Python library for fast numerical computation that can be run on the CPU or GPU.

It is a key foundational library for Deep Learning in Python that you can use directly to create Deep Learning models or wrapper libraries that greatly simplify the process.

In this post you will discover the Theano Python library.

Kick-start your project with my new book Deep Learning With Python, including step-by-step tutorials and the Python source code files for all examples.

Let’s get started.

What is Theano?

Theano is an open source project released under the BSD license and was developed by the LISA (now MILA) group at the University of Montreal, Quebec, Canada (home of Yoshua Bengio). It is named after a Greek mathematician.

At it’s heart Theano is a compiler for mathematical expressions in Python. It knows how to take your structures and
