TensorFlow: A Flexible, Scalable & Portable System
Summary
Rajat Monga talks about why engineers at Google built TensorFlow, an open source software library for numerical computation using data flow graphs, and what were some of the technical challenges in building it. TensorFlow leverages a general computational model that is applicable in a wide variety of other domains, especially for performing large-scale numerical computations.
