Keras Tokenizer Gist

tokenizer_serialization.py

# Keras tokenizer lacks serialization. Therefore I created the below to address this without changing the API.
# (Since I don't know how long it'll take for keras to support it)
# The Tokenizer __init__ should be modified to take the word_stats dictionary as a kwarg, 
# and a method added to the class to return the stats
# Expiermentally this works, but I am not sure of any nuances in the Tokenizer class.

{'word_counts': tokenizer.word_counts, 'word_docs': tokenizer.word_counts} should have tokenizer.word_docs for the key word_docs, no?
