Brief Description:
TensorFlow is an open source software library for numerical computation using data flow graphs. Nodes in the graph represent mathematical operations, while the graph edges represent the multidimensional data arrays (tensors) communicated between them. The flexible architecture allows you to deploy computation to one or more CPUs or GPUs in a desktop, server, or mobile device with a single API.
What’s Unique about it:
TensorFlow was developed by Google to meet their needs for systems capable of building and training neural networks to detect and decipher patterns and correlations, analogous to the learning and reasoning which humans use. It is currently used for both research and production at Google products. (More from Wikipedia)
Where it is Used on Campus:
TensorFlow is utilized within research based in The College of Engineering and Computer Science.
How it is Used on Campus:
TensorFlow is used for machine learning focused on deep neural networks.
