Welcome to the Swift for TensorFlow development community!
Swift for TensorFlow is a new way to develop machine learning models. It gives you the power of TensorFlow directly integrated into the Swift programming language. With Swift, you can write the following imperative code the and Swift automatically turns it into a single TensorFlow Graph and runs it with the full performance of TensorFlow Sessions on CPU, GPU and TPU.
import TensorFlow
var x = Tensor([[1, 2, 3]])
for i in 1...100 {
if x > 50 { break }
x += tanh(x)
}
print(x)
Swift combines the flexibility of Eager execution with the high performance of Graphs. Behind the scenes, Swift analyzes your Tensor code and automatically builds graphs for you. Swift also catches type errors and shape error before running your code. We believe that machine learning tools are so important that they deserve a first-class language and a compiler.
Note: Swift for TensorFlow is an early stage research project. It has been released to enable open source development and is not yet ready for general use by machine learning developers.
You can download a pre-built package for Swift for TensorFlow here. After installing Swift for TensorFlow, you can learn how to use the project here.
For instructions on building from source, visit google/swift.
Below are some documents explaining the Swift for TensorFlow project.
Conceptual overview:
Technical deeper dives:
Swift API reference:
Currently, the active development of Swift for TensorFlow will happen under the "tensorflow" branch of google/swift.
These projects include:
- The compiler and standard libraries: google/swift
- Debugger and REPL support: google/swift-lldb
As the code matures, we aim to move it upstream to the corresponding Swift.org repositories.
You can find example models in tensorflow/swift-models.
