Via Eiti Kimura. Straight to the point: 1) Install virtualenv via pip

$ pip install virtualenv

2) Define your directory

$ mkdir deep-learning-virtual-env

3) After defining the directory, navigate into it

$ cd deep-learning-virtual-env

4) Initialize your virtualenv

$ virtualenv .

5) Activate your virtualenv

$ source bin/activate

6) To make your work easier, we’ve even created a requirements file with Theano, Keras, Jupyter Notebook, and Scikit-Learn. To install them, just run the following command:

$ pip install -r requirements.key
