15 awesome opensource Tensorflow Projects

TensorFlow is a free and open-source software library for dataflow and differentiable programming across a range of tasks.

It is greatly used for Machine Learning Application, Developed in 2015 by the Google Brain Team and Written in Python and C++.

I will be introducing you to 15 opensource TensorFlow projects, you would like either as a Beginner in Machine Learning, an expert or a Python/C++ Developer, exploring new possibilities.

15. Tensornets

High level network definitions with pre-trained weights in TensorFlow

Features

• Applicability: Many people already have their own ML workflows, and want to put a new model on their workflows.
• Manageability: Models are written in tf.contrib.layers, which is lightweight like PyTorch and Keras, and allows for ease of accessibility to every weight and end-point.
• Readability. With recent TensorFlow APIs, more factoring and less indenting can be possible.
• Reproducibility. You can always reproduce the original results with simple APIs including feature extractions.
