Summary

TensorFlow is designed to make distributed machine and deep learning easy for everyone, but using it does require understanding some general principles and algorithms. Furthermore, the latest release of TensorFlow comes with lots of exciting features. Thus we also tried to cover them so that you can use them with ease. We have shown how to install TensorFlow on different platforms including Linux, Windows, and Mac OS. Before, covering this in even greater depth, we showed some example of how to upgrade the source code from the previous version of TensorFlow to the latest version 1.x.

In summary, here is a brief recap of the key concepts of TensorFlow explained in this chapter:

  • Graph: A TensorFlow computation is represented as dataflow graph. Each graph is built as a set of operations (http://www.tensorflow.org/api_docs/python/framework.html#Operation) objects.
  • Operation: Each Operation object represents...

Ever wonder why speech recognition systems don't understand the Scottish accent, or what would happen if an astronaut only ate mac 'n' cheese, or other spurious reflections you'd have at a bar? We did, then collated those deliberations into absurd research articles with fake figures and methodologies inspired by even more fictionally absurd studies.
