Introduction to High Performance Computing in Python. HPC in Python with TensorFlow. Part 2
Jonas Eschle, University of Zurich
While Python is a beautiful dynamic language, it lacks the ability to use native language elements for fast computing. Many libraries exist to take over this part, most notably TensorFlow, which does not only function as a deep learning library what it is famous for. An overview over the problematics and difficulties for HPC in general and especially in Python will be given in order to understand what problems we try to solve. Furthermore, an introduction into the functionality of TensorFlow as a HPC library with a comparison to other libraries follows.
