What is TensorFlow?<\/h3>\n<p>TensorFlow is simple a tool developed by Google and used to perform computation.<br \/>\nBut there is more.<br \/>\nTensorFlow is a library and can be imported and used with other programming languages. The typical and most common language used with TensorFlow is Python.<br \/>\nIt is machine learning library and applies in neural network oriented problem<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"t2\">2. How to Use TensorFlow<\/h3>\n<p>TensorFlow is normally used with Python programming language. To use TensorFlow in Python, simply import the TensorFlow library into the session. This is the same way you add numpy or pandas to Python.<br \/>\nOnce imported you can then use functions available in TensorFlow library.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"t3\">3. What is a Tensor?<\/h3>\n<p>In the basic terms, Tensors are arrays used to hold data. But not just any array. Normally, very large high-dimension datasets which are in form of numbers are represented a tensors.<br \/>\nSo we can say that the data we need to analyse a imported in TensorFlow as tensors.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"t4\">4. Advantages of TensorFlow<\/h3>\n<p>TensorFlow can run on a variety of platforms<br \/>\nIt can easily be trained on a CPU as well as GPU for distributed computing<br \/>\nIt has advanced support for asynchronous computations, queues and threads<br \/>\nIt is open source and therefore customisable<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"t5\">5. Final Notes<\/h3>\n<p>Just as I mentioned, this is just a beginner&#8217;s explanation of TensorFlow. In subsequent tutorials, and if you interested in Deep Learning, we would take a look at examples of how to used TensorFlow to perform computation. We would also examine Data Flow Graphs and other elements of TensorFlow.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This would be a very easy explanation of the concept of TensorFlow.
