Keras ignores values ​​in $ HOME / .keras / keras.json

Question

I know that the default backend for Keras switched from Theano to TensorFlow, but with the Dev version of Theano I can train on GPUs with OpenCL (I have an AMD card).

However, when I import Keras, it only uses TensorFlow support even after changing the values ​​in the Keras configuration file :

~ $ cat $HOME/.keras/keras.json
{"epsilon": 1e-07, "floatx": "float32", "backend": "theano"}

~ $ python -c 'import keras'
Using TensorFlow backend.

~ $ KERAS_BACKEND=theano python -c 'import keras'
Using Theano backend.
Mapped name None to device opencl0:2: AMD Radeon R9 M370X Compute Engine

In addition, I know that Keras reads the configuration file after import, because if I fill in some invalid value for "backend", I get an error message:

~ $ cat $HOME/.keras/keras.json
{"epsilon": 1e-07, "floatx": "float32", "backend": "foobar"}


~ $ python -c 'import keras'
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/Users/antalek/anaconda/envs/ENVPy3/lib/python3.5/site-packages/keras/__init__.py", line 3, in <module>

    assert _backend in {'theano', 'tensorflow'}
AssertionError

System Information:

• Mac OSX 10.11.6
• Anaconda Python v 3.5
• Keras v 2.0.2

I would like Keras to use Theano as the default backend. Does anyone know how to install it as such?

EDIT:

@Marcin Możejko:

~ $ which python
/Users/<my name>/anaconda/envs/ENVPy3/bin/python

conda, ​​Keras.

Answer 1

, :

• Ubuntu 16.04
• Anaconda + Python 3.6
• Keras 2.0.2

backend - KERAS_BACKEND. Json .

EDIT: Anaconda, anaconda3/envs/ENV-NAME/etc/conda/activate.d/keras_activate.sh

#!/bin/bash
if [ "$(uname)" == "Darwin" ]
then
    # for Mac OSX
    export KERAS_BACKEND=tensorflow
elif [ "$(uname)" == "Linux" ]
then
    # for Linux
    export KERAS_BACKEND=theano
fi
