 # Siamese Neural Network for Keras

+This project provides a lightweight siamese neural network module for use with the Keras 
 framework. 
 
-Siamese neural networks are used to generate embeddings that describe inter and extra class relationships. 
-This makes Siamese Networks like many other similarity learning algorithms suitable as a pre-training step for many 
-classification problems.
+The neural network compares two images and returns their similarity in a 0-1 float value.
+The datasets used are the fruit-360 dataset, COCO 2014 and 2017 as well as some ImageNet data.
 
-An example of the siamese network module being used to produce a noteworthy 99.85% validation performance on the MNIST 
-dataset with no data augmentation and minimal modification from the Keras example is provided.
+# Installation
 
-## Installation
-
-Create and activate a virtual environment for the project.
-```sh
-$ virtualenv env
-$ source env/bin/activate
-```
-
-To install the module directly from GitHub:
-```
-$ pip install git+https://github.com/aspamers/siamese
-```
-
-The module will install keras and numpy but no back-end (like tensorflow). This is deliberate since it leaves the module 
-decoupled from any back-end and gives you a chance to install whatever backend you prefer.

-## To run examples
-
-With the activated virtual environment with the installed python package run the following commands.
