Using TensorFlow on Windows 10 with Nvidia RTX 3000 series GPUs

Overview

Installing TensorFlow/CUDA/cuDNN for use with accelerating hardware like a GPU can be non-trivial, especially for novice users on a windows machine. The below describes how to build the CUDA/cuDNN packages from source so that TensorFlow tasks can be accelerated with a Nvidia RTX 30XX GPU.

This article assumes that

you are using an IDE like IntelliJ, PyCharm, or Spyder/Anaconda
you have used pip/conda to install packages
you have already physically installed your GPU

We will cover

briefly, checking system/hardware requirements
installing TensorFlow using pip
in depth, building CUDA/cuDNN from source so that TensorFlow can be used with GPU support

Before beginning it is worthwhile to note that TensorFlow and associated dependencies require very specific driver/package versions, as such it is recommended to use the exact versions specified in this article.

Deployment of a TensorFlow model to Production using TensorFlow Serving

Learn step by step deployment of a TensorFlow model to Production using TensorFlow Serving.

You created a deep learning model using Tensorflow, fine-tuned the model for better accuracy and precision, and now want to deploy your model to production for users to use it to make predictions.

TensorFlow Serving allows you to

Easily manage multiple versions of your model, like an experimental or stable version.
Keep your server architecture and APIs the same
Dynamically discovers a new version of the TensorFlow flow model and serves it using (remote procedure protocol) using a consistent API structure
Consistent experience for all clients making inferences by centralizing the location of the model

The key components of TF Serving are

Servables: A Servable is an underlying object used by clients to perform computation or inference**. TensorFlow serving represents the deep learning models as one ore more Servables.
Loaders: Manage the lifecycle of the Servables as Servables cannot manage their own lifecycle. Loaders standardize the APIs for loading and unloading the Servables, independent of the specific learning algorithm.
Source: Finds and provides Servables and then supplies one Loader instance for each version of the servable.
Managers: Manage the full lifecycle of the servable: Loading the servable, Serving the servable, and Unloading the servable
TensorFlow Core: Manages lifecycle and metrics of the Servable by making the Loader and servable as opaque objects

Why Use WordPress? What Can You Do With WordPress?

Can you use WordPress for anything other than blogging? To your surprise, yes. WordPress is more than just a blogging tool, and it has helped thousands of websites and web applications to thrive. The use of WordPress powers around 40% of online projects, and today in our blog, we would visit some amazing uses of WordPress other than blogging.
What Is The Use Of WordPress?

WordPress is the most popular website platform in the world. It is the first choice of businesses that want to set a feature-rich and dynamic Content Management System. So, if you ask what WordPress is used for, the answer is – everything. It is a super-flexible, feature-rich and secure platform that offers everything to build unique websites and applications. Let’s start knowing them:

1. Multiple Websites Under A Single Installation
WordPress Multisite allows you to develop multiple sites from a single WordPress installation. You can download WordPress and start building websites you want to launch under a single server. Literally speaking, you can handle hundreds of sites from one single dashboard, which now needs applause.
It is a highly efficient platform that allows you to easily run several websites under the same login credentials. One of the best things about WordPress is the themes it has to offer. You can simply download them and plugin for various sites and save space on sites without losing their speed.

2. WordPress Social Network
WordPress can be used for high-end projects such as Social Media Network. If you don’t have the money and patience to hire a coder and invest months in building a feature-rich social media site, go for WordPress. It is one of the most amazing uses of WordPress. Its stunning CMS is unbeatable. And you can build sites as good as Facebook or Reddit etc. It can just make the process a lot easier.
To set up a social media network, you would have to download a WordPress Plugin called BuddyPress. It would allow you to connect a community page with ease and would provide all the necessary features of a community or social media. It has direct messaging, activity stream, user groups, extended profiles, and so much more. You just have to download and configure it.
If BuddyPress doesn’t meet all your needs, don’t give up on your dreams. You can try out WP Symposium or PeepSo. There are also several themes you can use to build a social network.

3. Create A Forum For Your Brand’s Community
Communities are very important for your business. They help you stay in constant connection with your users and consumers. And allow you to turn them into a loyal customer base. Meanwhile, there are many good technologies that can be used for building a community page – the good old WordPress is still the best.
It is the best community development technology. If you want to build your online community, you need to consider all the amazing features you get with WordPress. Plugins such as BB Press is an open-source, template-driven PHP/ MySQL forum software. It is very simple and doesn’t hamper the experience of the website.
Other tools such as wpFoRo and Asgaros Forum are equally good for creating a community blog. They are lightweight tools that are easy to manage and integrate with your WordPress site easily. However, there is only one tiny problem; you need to have some technical knowledge to build a WordPress Community blog page.

4. Shortcodes
Since we gave you a problem in the previous section, we would also give you a perfect solution for it. You might not know to code, but you have shortcodes. Shortcodes help you execute functions without having to code. It is an easy way to build an amazing website, add new features, customize plugins easily. They are short lines of code, and rather than memorizing multiple lines; you can have zero technical knowledge and start building a feature-rich website or application.
There are also plugins like Shortcoder, Shortcodes Ultimate, and the Basics available on WordPress that can be used, and you would not even have to remember the shortcodes.

5. Build Online Stores
If you still think about why to use WordPress, use it to build an online store. You can start selling your goods online and start selling. It is an affordable technology that helps you build a feature-rich eCommerce store with WordPress.
WooCommerce is an extension of WordPress and is one of the most used eCommerce solutions. WooCommerce holds a 28% share of the global market and is one of the best ways to set up an online store. It allows you to build user-friendly and professional online stores and has thousands of free and paid extensions. Moreover as an open-source platform, and you don’t have to pay for the license.
Apart from WooCommerce, there are Easy Digital Downloads, iThemes Exchange, Shopify eCommerce plugin, and so much more available.

6. Security Features
WordPress takes security very seriously. It offers tons of external solutions that help you in safeguarding your WordPress site. While there is no way to ensure 100% security, it provides regular updates with security patches and provides several plugins to help with backups, two-factor authorization, and more.
By choosing hosting providers like WP Engine, you can improve the security of the website. It helps in threat detection, manage patching and updates, and internal security audits for the customers, and so much more.

A Demo Code Of Training and Testing using Tensorflow

ProbFace, arxiv

This is a demo code of training and testing [ProbFace] using Tensorflow. ProbFace is a reliable Probabilistic Face Embeddging (PFE) method. The representation of each face will be an Guassian distribution parametrized by (mu, sigma), where mu is the original embedding and sigma is the learned uncertainty. Experiments show that ProbFace could

improve the robustness of PFE.
simplify the calculation of the multal likelihood score (MLS).
improve the recognition performance on the risk-controlled scenarios.
