We're happy that our work on tensorflow.net has attracted many users. However, at this time, none of the main maintainers of this repo is available for new features and bug fix. We won't refuse PRs and will help to review them.
If you would like to be a contributor or maintainer of tensorflow.net, we'd like to help you to start up.
We feel sorry for that and we'll resume the maintaining for this project once one of us has bandwidth for it.
master branch and v0.100.x is corresponding to tensorflow v2.10, v0.6x branch is from tensorflow v2.6, v0.15-tensorflow1.15 is from tensorflow1.15. Please add https://www.myget.org/F/scisharp/api/v3/index.json
to nuget source to use nightly release.
SciSharp STACK
's mission is to bring popular data science technology into the .NET world and to provide .NET developers with a powerful Machine Learning tool set without reinventing the wheel. Since the APIs are kept as similar as possible you can immediately adapt any existing TensorFlow code in C# or F# with a zero learning curve. Take a look at a comparison picture and see how comfortably a TensorFlow/Python script translates into a C# program with TensorFlow.NET.
SciSharp's philosophy allows a large number of machine learning code written in Python to be quickly migrated to .NET, enabling .NET developers to use cutting edge machine learning models and access a vast number of TensorFlow resources which would not be possible without this project.
In comparison to other projects, like for instance TensorFlowSharp which only provide TensorFlow's low-level C++ API and can only run models that were built using Python, Tensorflow.NET makes it possible to build the pipeline of training and inference with pure C# and F#. Besides, Tensorflow.NET provides binding of Tensorflow.Keras to make it easy to transfer your code from python to .NET.
ML.NET also take Tensorflow.NET as one of the backends to train and infer your model, which provides better integration with .NET.

You can search the package name in NuGet Manager, or use the commands below in package manager console.
The installation contains two parts, the first is the main body:
### Install Tensorflow.NET
PM> Install-Package TensorFlow.NET
### Install Tensorflow.Keras
PM> Install-Package TensorFlow.Keras
The second part is the computing support part. Only one of the following packages is needed, depending on your device and system.
### CPU version for Windows and Linux
PM> Install-Package SciSharp.TensorFlow.Redist
### CPU version for MacOS
PM> Install-Package SciSharp.TensorFlow.Redist-OSX
### GPU version for Windows (CUDA and cuDNN are required)
PM> Install-Package SciSharp.TensorFlow.Redist-Windows-GPU
### GPU version for Linux (CUDA and cuDNN are required)
PM> Install-Package SciSharp.TensorFlow.Redist-Linux-GPU
Two simple examples are given here to introduce the basic usage of Tensorflow.NET. As you can see, it's easy to write C# code just like that in Python.

Feel like contributing to one of the hottest projects in the Machine Learning field? Want to know how Tensorflow magically creates the computational graph?
We appreciate every contribution however small! There are tasks for novices to experts alike, if everyone tackles only a small task the sum of contributions will be huge.
You can:
The best way to find out why a unit test is failing is to single step it in C# or F# and its corresponding Python at the same time to see where the flow of execution digresses or where variables exhibit different values. Good Python IDEs like PyCharm let you single step into the tensorflow library code.
