What is this?
This is the original Google Research notebook demonstrating DeepDream, a technique for generating surreal 'neural network art' by amplifying the patterns a trained neural network detects in an image.
Is this a packaged library or just sample code?
It is a single IPython/Jupyter notebook (dream.ipynb) with sample code, not a packaged library or application.
How do I run it?
You can view dream.ipynb directly on GitHub without running anything, or clone the repository, install the dependencies listed inside the notebook, and run it locally.
What do I need installed before I can run the notebook?
The notebook itself lists the specific packages (a Python/Jupyter environment plus the deep learning stack it uses) you need to install — they are not spelled out separately in the README.
Is this still maintained?
No, the repository is archived on GitHub, so it is a frozen snapshot of the 2015 DeepDream research code rather than an actively developed project.
Can I share the images I make with this?
Yes, the README encourages posting generated images to Google+, Facebook, or Twitter tagged with #deepdream so other researchers can find them.
Where can I see more example DeepDream images?
The README links to an original gallery accompanying the Google Research blog post with additional example outputs from the technique.
