seaborn VS Keras

If you are doing data analysis I don't think any of the 3 pieces of software you mentioned are going to be that helpful.

I see these products as tools for data visualization and reporting i.e. presenting prepared datasets to users in a visually appealing way. They aren't as well suited for serious analytics.

I can't comment on Superset or Tableau but I am familiar with Power BI (it has been rolled out across my org), the type of statistics you can do with it are fairly rudimentary. If you need to do any thing beyond summarizing (counts, averages, min, max etc). It is not particularly easy.

For data analysis I use SAS or R. This software allows you do things like multivariate regression, timeseries forecasting, PCA, Cluster analysis etc. There is also plotting capability.

Both these products are kind of old school, I've been using them since early 2000's, the "new school" seems to be Python. Pretty much all the recent data science people in my organization use Python. Particularly Pandas and libraries like Seaborn (https://seaborn.pydata.org/).

The "power" users of Power BI in my organization tend to be finance/HR people for use cases like drill down into cost figures or Interactively presenting KPI's and other headline figures to management things like that.

It's referring to the seaborn library (https://seaborn.pydata.org/), a Python library for data visualization (built on top of matplotlib).

While it’s not perfect and it’s not ggplot2, Seaborn is definitely a big improvement over bare matplotlib. You can still use matplotlib to modify the plots it spits out if you want to but the defaults are pretty good most of the time.

You've done a great job presenting this. Maybe you already know, but seaborne is an extension of matplotlib that makes it pretty easy to "beautify" matplotlib charts

Keras

As a beginner, I was looking for something simple and flexible for developing deep learning models and that is when I found Keras. Many AI/ML professionals appreciate Keras for its simplicity and efficiency in prototyping and developing deep learning models, making it a preferred choice, especially for beginners and for projects requiring rapid development.

After setting the variables for the environment, the next step is to install dependencies. To use Gemma, KerasNLP is the dependency used. KerasNLP is a collection of natural language processing (NLP) models implemented in Keras and runnable on JAX, PyTorch, and TensorFlow.

All breaking changes are listed here: https://github.com/keras-team/keras/issues/18467

You can use this migration guide to identify and fix each of these issues (and further, making your code run on JAX or PyTorch): https://keras.io/guides/migrating_to_keras_3/

I'm guessing the "real" keras code is coming from the keras repository. Is that a correct assumption? How does that version of Keras get there? If I wanted to write my own activation layer next to ELU, where exactly would I do that?

Other popular machine learning tools include PyTorch, Keras, and Scikit-learn. PyTorch is an open-source machine learning library developed by Facebook that is known for its ease of use and flexibility. Keras is a high-level neural networks API that is written in Python and is known for its simplicity. Scikit-learn is a machine learning library for Python that is used for data analysis and data mining tasks.

I'm not aware of anything off-the-shelf, but if you have sufficient programming experience, one way to do this would be to build a large dataset of reference images and pictures and use something like keras to train a convolutional neural network on them.
