[FLsystem-paper](https://github.com/AmberLJC/FLsystem-paper) reports 75 GitHub stars, 7 forks, and 1 open issues, last pushed Feb 7, 2024. [keras](http://keras.io/) has 64k stars, 20k forks, and 228 open issues, last pushed Jul 7, 2026. Figures are from public GitHub metadata via [FLsystem-paper's repository](https://github.com/AmberLJC/FLsystem-paper) and [keras's repository](https://github.com/keras-team/keras). | | [FLsystem-paper](/tools/amberljc-flsystem-paper.md) | [keras](/tools/keras-team-keras.md) | | --- | --- | --- | | Tagline | Federated Learning Systems Paper List | Deep Learning for humans | | Stars | 75 | 64,191 | | Forks | 7 | 19,752 | | Open issues | 1 | 228 | | Language | - | Python | | Adopt for | - | - | | Persona | - | - | | Runtime | - | - | | License | - | Apache-2.0 | | Categories | Inference & Serving, LLM Frameworks, Model Training | Model Training | ## Trust and health _Sourced signals - not a safety guarantee.

Validate activity before betting a new project on FLsystem-paper. - Inference & Serving: Self-hosting rarely beats a hosted API on cost until you have steady, high-volume traffic. - LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves. - Model Training: Try prompting and RAG first; fine-tuning is the answer to style/format, not missing knowledge. ## When NOT to use keras - Model Training: Try prompting and RAG first; fine-tuning is the answer to style/format, not missing knowledge. ## Common questions ### What is the difference between FLsystem-paper and keras? FLsystem-paper: Federated Learning Systems Paper List. keras: Deep Learning for humans. See the comparison table for live GitHub stats and shared categories. ### When should I choose FLsystem-paper over keras?

Stars measure visibility, not whether either tool fits your constraints. ### Are FLsystem-paper and keras open source? Yes - both are open-source projects on GitHub. ### Where can I find alternatives to FLsystem-paper or keras? GraphCanon lists graph-backed alternatives at [FLsystem-paper alternatives](/tools/amberljc-flsystem-paper/alternatives) and [keras alternatives](/tools/keras-team-keras/alternatives) ([FLsystem-paper markdown twin](/tools/amberljc-flsystem-paper/alternatives.md), [keras markdown twin](/tools/keras-team-keras/alternatives.md)), ranked by typed relationship edges rather than popularity votes. ### Is there a machine-readable version of this comparison? Yes. The markdown twin at [this comparison](/compare/amberljc-flsystem-paper-vs-keras-team-keras.md) mirrors this page for agents and LLM crawlers, with the same stats table and FAQ answers. ### Which is better maintained, FLsystem-paper or keras? FLsystem-paper: Dormant. keras: Very active. Compare maintenance labels, days since push, and release cadence in the trust section below - stars alone do not measure maintenance. ### Where are the full trust reports for FLsystem-paper and keras? GraphCanon publishes per-repo trust reports with dated maintenance, provenance, and scan summaries: [FLsystem-paper trust report](/tools/amberljc-flsystem-paper/trust); [keras trust report](/tools/keras-team-keras/trust). --- **Machine-readable endpoints** - JSON: [`/api/graphcanon/graph?tool=amberljc-flsystem-paper`](/api/graphcanon/graph?tool=amberljc-flsystem-paper) - LLM index: [/llms.txt](/llms.txt) - Full corpus: [/llms-full.txt](/llms-full.txt) _GraphCanon - The knowledge graph for AI development. https://www.graphcanon.com/_
