def multi_gpu_model(model, gpus):
    """Replicates a model on different GPUs.

    Specifically, this function implements single-machine
    multi-GPU data parallelism. It works in the following way:

    - Divide the model's input(s) into multiple sub-batches.
    - Apply a model copy on each sub-batch. Every model copy
        is executed on a dedicated GPU.
    - Concatenate the results (on CPU) into one big batch.

    E.g. if your `batch_size` is 64 and you use `gpus=2`,
    then we will divide the input into 2 sub-batches of 32 samples,
    process each sub-batch on one GPU, then return the full
    batch of 64 processed samples.

    This induces quasi-linear speedup on up to 8 GPUs.

    This function is only available with the TensorFlow backend
    for the time being.

    # Arguments
        model: A Keras model instance. To avoid OOM errors,
            this model could have been built on CPU, for instance
            (see usage example below).
        gpus: Integer >= 2, number of on GPUs on which to create
            model replicas.

    # Returns
        A Keras `Model` instance which can be used just like the initial
        `model` argument, but which distributes its workload on multiple GPUs.

    # Example

                             classes=num_classes)

        # Replicates the model on 8 GPUs.
        # This assumes that your machine has 8 available GPUs.

        x = np.random.random((num_samples, height, width, 3))
        y = np.random.random((num_samples, num_classes))

        # This `fit` call will be distributed on 8 GPUs.
        # Since the batch size is 256, each GPU will process 32 samples.
