Learn Tensorflow with online courses and programs

Explore the powerful world of machine learning with TensorFlow. Take online courses delivered through edX and unleash your data’s potential.

What is Tensorflow?

TensorFlow is a helpful open-source library tool for machine learning. Machine learning by definition, is a subfield of AI, which enables a computer to learn to perform tasks.Footnote 1

Created by the Google Brain team to speed up the learning process for complex tasks, Tensorflow is used when creating artificial brain-like networks, called neural networks. The end goal is for it to gather and use data for training purposes easier.Footnote 2

By using the universal code Python, prompt commands are sent to its inbuilt system calculator, and in turn, the calculator (which runs on super speed C++ code) does the heavy math equations for the user in minimal time.
