Data-Structures Machine-Learning New Features Software Design
See in schedule Download SlidesAutoGraph is one of the most exciting new features of Tensorflow 2.0: it allows transforming a subset of Python syntax into its portable, high-performance and language agnostic graph representation bridging the gap between Tensorflow 1.x and the 2.0 release based on eager execution.
Using AutoGraph with the `@tf.fuction` decorator seems easy, but in practice, writing efficient and correctly graph-convertible code requires to know in detail how AutoGraph and tf.function work.
In particular, knowing how:
- A graph is created and when it is re-used;
- To deal with functions that create a state;
- To correctly use the Tensorflow `tf.Tensor` object instead of using the Python native types to speed-up the computation;
defines the minimum skill-set required to write correct graph-accelerable code.
The talk will guide you trough AutoGraph and `tf.function` highlighting all the peculiarities that are worth knowing to build the right skill-set.
