Neurons in TensorFlow

TensorFlow is currently the most popular neural network and deep learning framework. It was created and is maintained by Google. TensorFlow is used for voice recognition and voice search, and it is also the brain behind translate.google.com. Later in this chapter, we will use TensorFlow to recognize written characters.

The TensorFlow API is available in many languages, including Python, JavaScript, Java, and C. TensorFlow works with tensors. You can think of a tensor as a container composed of a matrix (usually with high dimensions) and additional information related to the operations it will perform (such as weights and biases, which you will be looking at later in this chapter). A tensor with no dimensions (with no rank) is a scalar. A tensor of rank 1 is a vector, rank 2 tensors are matrices, and a rank 3 tensor is a three-dimensional matrix. The rank indicates the dimensions of a tensor. In this chapter, we will be looking at tensors of ranks 2 and...
