TensorFlow

TensorFlow, developed by Google in 2015, is one of the most popular deep learning frameworks in the world. It is used widely for research and commercial projects and boasts a rich set of APIs and functionalities to help researchers and practitioners develop deep learning models. TensorFlow programs can run on GPUs as well as CPUs, and thus abstract the GPU programming to make development more convenient.

Throughout this book, we will be using TensorFlow exclusively, so make sure you are familiar with the basics as you progress through the chapters.
