Changelog

1.1.0

Major Features and Improvements

• Added Java API support for Windows.
• Added tf.spectral module. Moved existing FFT ops to tf.spectral while
  keeping an alias in the old location (tf.*).
• Added 1D, 2D and 3D Fourier transform ops for real signals to tf.spectral.
• Added a tf.bincount function.
• Added Keras 2 API to contrib.
• Added a new lightweight queue-like object - RecordInput.
• Added tf.contrib.image.compose_transforms function.
• Bring tf.estimator.* into the API. Non-deprecated functionality from tf.contrib.learn.Estimator is moved to tf.estimator.Estimator with cosmetic changes.
• Docker images: TF images on gcr.io and Docker Hub are upgraded to ubuntu:16.04.
• Added the following features to TensorFlow Debugger (tfdbg):
• Ability to inspect Python source file against TF ops and tensors (command print_source / ps)

• Initial release of installation guides for Java, C, and Go.
• Added Text Dashboard to TensorBoard.

Deprecations

• TensorFlow 1.1.0 will be the last time we release a binary with Mac GPU support. Going forward, we will stop testing on Mac GPU systems. We continue to welcome patches that maintain Mac GPU support, and we will try to keep the Mac GPU build working.

Changes to contrib APIs

• The behavior of RNNCells is now stricter due to the transition towards making RNNCells act more like Keras layers.
• If an RNNCell is used twice in two different variable scopes, an error is raised describing how to avoid this behavior.
• If an RNNCell is used in a variable scope with existing conflicting variables, an error is raised showing that the RNNCell must be constructed with argument reuse=True.
• Deprecated contrib/distributions pmf, pdf, log_pmf, log_pdf.
• Moved bayesflow.special_math to distributions.
• tf.contrib.tensor_forest.python.tensor_forest.RandomForestDeviceAssigner removed.

1.0.1

Bug Fixes and Other Changes

• Change GraphConstructor to not increase the version when importing, but instead take the min of all versions.
• Google Cloud Storage fixes.
• Removed tf.core and tf.python modules from the API. These were never intended to be exposed. Please use the same objects through top-level tf module instead.

1.0.0

Major Features and Improvements

• XLA (experimental): initial release of XLA, a domain-specific compiler for TensorFlow graphs, that targets CPUs and GPUs.
• TensorFlow Debugger (tfdbg): command-line interface and API.
• New python 3 docker images added.
• Made pip packages pypi compliant. TensorFlow can now be installed by pip install tensorflow command.
• Several python API calls have been changed to resemble NumPy more closely.
• Android: person detection + tracking demo implementing Scalable Object
  Detection using Deep Neural Networks.
• New (experimental) Java API.
• Add new Android image stylization demo based on "A Learned Representation For Artistic Style", and add YOLO object detector support.

Breaking Changes to the API
To help you upgrade your existing TensorFlow Python code to match the API changes below, we have prepared a conversion script.

• TensorFlow/models have been moved to a separate github repository.
• Division and modulus operators (/, //, %) now match Python (flooring)
  semantics. This applies to tf.div and tf.mod as well. To obtain forced
  integer truncation based behaviors you can use tf.truncatediv
  and tf.truncatemod.
• tf.divide() is now the recommended division function. tf.div() will
  remain, but its semantics do not respond to Python 3 or from future
  mechanisms.
• tf.reverse() now takes indices of axes to be reversed. E.g.
  tf.reverse(a, [True, False, True]) must now be written as
  tf.reverse(a, [0, 2]). tf.reverse_v2() will remain until 1.0 final.
• tf.mul, tf.sub and tf.neg are deprecated in favor of tf.multiply,
  tf.subtract and tf.negative.
• tf.pack and tf.unpack are deprecated in favor of tf.stack and
  tf.unstack.
• TensorArray.pack and TensorArray.unpack are getting deprecated in favor of
  TensorArray.stack and TensorArray.unstack.
• The following Python functions have had their arguments changed to use axis
  when referring to specific dimensions. We have kept the old keyword arguments
  for compatibility currently, but we will be removing them well before the
  final 1.0.
• tf.argmax: dimension becomes axis
• tf.argmin: dimension becomes axis
• tf.count_nonzero: reduction_indices becomes axis
• tf.expand_dims: dim becomes axis
• tf.reduce_all: reduction_indices becomes axis
• tf.reduce_any: reduction_indices becomes axis
• tf.reduce_join: reduction_indices becomes axis
• tf.reduce_logsumexp: reduction_indices becomes axis
• tf.reduce_max: reduction_indices becomes axis
• tf.reduce_mean: reduction_indices becomes axis
• tf.reduce_min: reduction_indices becomes axis
• tf.reduce_prod: reduction_indices becomes axis
• tf.reduce_sum: reduction_indices becomes axis
• tf.reverse_sequence: batch_dim becomes batch_axis, seq_dim becomes seq_axis
• tf.sparse_concat: concat_dim becomes axis
• tf.sparse_reduce_sum: reduction_axes becomes axis
• tf.sparse_reduce_sum_sparse: reduction_axes becomes axis
• tf.sparse_split: split_dim becomes axis
• tf.listdiff has been renamed to tf.setdiff1d to match NumPy naming.
• tf.inv has been renamed to be tf.reciprocal (component-wise reciprocal)
  to avoid confusion with np.inv which is matrix inversion
• tf.round now uses banker's rounding (round to even) semantics to match NumPy.
• tf.split now takes arguments in a reversed order and with different
  keywords. In particular, we now match NumPy order as
  tf.split(value, num_or_size_splits, axis).
• tf.sparse_split now takes arguments in reversed order and with different
  keywords. In particular we now match NumPy order as
  tf.sparse_split(sp_input, num_split, axis). NOTE: we have temporarily
  made tf.sparse_split require keyword arguments.
• tf.concat now takes arguments in reversed order and with different keywords. In particular we now match NumPy order as tf.concat(values, axis, name).
• tf.image.decode_jpeg by default uses the faster DCT method, sacrificing
  a little fidelity for improved speed. One can revert to the old
  behavior by specifying the attribute dct_method='INTEGER_ACCURATE'.
• tf.complex_abs has been removed from the Python interface. tf.abs
  supports complex tensors and should be used instead.
• In the C++ API (in tensorflow/cc), Input, Output, etc. have moved
  from the tensorflow::ops namespace to tensorflow.
• Template.var_scope property renamed to .variable_scope
• SyncReplicasOptimizer is removed and SyncReplicasOptimizerV2 renamed to SyncReplicasOptimizer.
• tf.zeros_initializer() and tf.ones_initializer() now return a callable
  that must be called with initializer arguments, in your code replace
  tf.zeros_initializer with tf.zeros_initializer().
• SparseTensor.shape has been renamed to SparseTensor.dense_shape. Same for
  SparseTensorValue.shape.
• Replace tf.scalar_summary, tf.histogram_summary, tf.audio_summary, tf.image_summary with tf.summary.scalar, tf.summary.histogram, tf.summary.audio, tf.summary.image, respectively. The new summary ops take name rather than tag as their first argument, meaning summary ops now respect TensorFlow name scopes.
• Replace tf.train.SummaryWriter and tf.train.SummaryWriterCache with tf.summary.FileWriter and tf.summary.FileWriterCache.
• Removes RegisterShape from public API. Use C++ shape function registration
  instead.
• Deprecated _ref dtypes from the python API.
• In the C++ API (in tensorflow/cc), Input, Output, etc. have moved
  from the tensorflow::ops namespace to tensorflow.
• Change arg order for {softmax,sparse_softmax,sigmoid}_cross_entropy_with_logits to be (labels, predictions), and force use of named args.
• tf.nn.rnn_cell.* and most functions in tf.nn.rnn.* (with the exception of dynamic_rnn and raw_rnn) are temporarily in tf.contrib.rnn. They will be moved back into core for TF 1.2.
• tf.nn.sampled_softmax_loss and tf.nn.nce_loss have both changed their API such that you need to switch the inputs, labels to labels, inputs parameters.
• The shape keyword argument of the SparseTensor constructor changes its name to dense_shape between Tensorflow 0.12 and Tensorflow 1.0.

Bug Fixes and Other Changes

• Numerous C++ API updates.
• New op: parallel_stack.
• Introducing common tf io compression options constants for
  RecordReader/RecordWriter.
• Add sparse_column_with_vocabulary_file, to specify a feature column that
  transform string features to IDs, where the mapping is defined by a vocabulary
  file.
• Added index_to_string_table which returns a lookup table that maps indices to
  strings.
• Add string_to_index_table, which returns a lookup table that matches strings
  to indices.
• Add a ParallelForWithWorkerId function.
• Add string_to_index_table, which returns a lookup table that matches strings
  to indices.
• Support restore session from checkpoint files in v2 in contrib/session_bundle.
• Added a tf.contrib.image.rotate function for arbitrary angles.
• Added tf.contrib.framework.filter_variables as a convenience function to
  filter lists of variables based on regular expressions.
• make_template() takes an optional custom_getter_ param.
• Added comment about how existing directories are handled by
  recursive_create_dir.
• Added an op for QR factorizations.
• Divides and mods in Python API now use flooring (Python) semantics.
• Android: pre-built libs are now built nightly.
• Android: cmake/gradle build for TensorFlow Inference library under
  contrib/android/cmake
• Android: Much more robust Session initialization code.
• Android: TF stats now exposed directly in demo and log when debug mode is
  active
• Android: new/better README.md documentation
• saved_model is available as tf.saved_model.
• Empty op is now stateful.
• Improve speed of scatter_update on the cpu for ASSIGN operations.
• Change reduce_join to treat reduction_indices in the same way as other reduce_ ops.
• Move TensorForestEstimator to contrib/tensor_forest.
• Enable compiler optimizations by default and allow configuration in configure.
• tf.divide now honors the name field.
• Make metrics weight broadcasting more strict.

0.12.0

Major Features and Improvements

• TensorFlow now builds and runs on Microsoft Windows (tested on Windows 10,
  Windows 7, and Windows Server 2016). Supported languages include Python (via a
  pip package) and C++. CUDA 8.0 and cuDNN 5.1 are supported for GPU
  acceleration. Known limitations include: It is not currently possible to load
  a custom op library. The GCS and HDFS file systems are not currently
  supported. The following ops are not currently implemented:
  Dequantize, QuantizeAndDequantize, QuantizedAvgPool,
  QuantizedBatchNomWithGlobalNormalization, QuantizedBiasAdd, QuantizedConcat,
  QuantizedConv2D, QuantizedMatmul, QuantizedMaxPool,
  QuantizeDownAndShrinkRange, QuantizedRelu, QuantizedRelu6, QuantizedReshape,
  QuantizeV2, RequantizationRange, and Requantize.
• Go: Experimental API in Go to create and execute graphs
  (https://godoc.org/github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/tensorflow/go)
• New checkpoint format becomes the default in tf.train.Saver. Old V1
  checkpoints continue to be readable; controlled by the write_version
  argument, tf.train.Saver now by default writes out in the new V2
  format. It significantly reduces the peak memory required and latency
  incurred during restore.
• Added a new library for library of matrix-free (iterative) solvers for linear
  equations, linear least-squares, eigenvalues and singular values in
  tensorflow/contrib/solvers. Initial version has lanczos bidiagonalization,
  conjugate gradients and CGLS.
• Added gradients for matrix_solve_ls and self_adjoint_eig.
• Large cleanup to add second order gradient for ops with C++ gradients and
  improve existing gradients such that most ops can now be differentiated
  multiple times.
• Added a solver for ordinary differential equations,
  tf.contrib.integrate.odeint.
• New contrib module for tensors with named axes, tf.contrib.labeled_tensor.
• Visualization of embeddings in TensorBoard.

Breaking Changes to the API

• BusAdjacency enum replaced with a protocol buffer DeviceLocality. PCI bus
  indexing now starts from 1 instead of 0, and bus_id==0 is used where
  previously BUS_ANY was used.
• Env::FileExists and FileSystem::FileExists now return a tensorflow::Status
  instead of a bool. Any callers to this function can be converted to a bool
  by adding .ok() to the call.
• The C API type TF_SessionWithGraph has been renamed to TF_Session,
  indicating its preferred use in language bindings for TensorFlow.
  What was previously TF_Session has been renamed to TF_DeprecatedSession.
• Renamed TF_Port to TF_Output in the C API.
• Removes RegisterShape from public API. Use C++ shape function registration instead.
  indexing now starts from 1 instead of 0, and bus_id==0 is used where
  previously BUS_ANY was used.
• Most RNN cells and RNN functions now use different variable scopes to be
  consistent with layers (tf.contrib.layers). This means old checkpoints
  written using this code will not load after this change without providing
  Saver a list of variable renames. Examples of variable scope changes
  include RNN -> rnn in tf.nn.rnn, tf.nn.dynamic_rnn and moving from
  Linear/Matrix -> weights and Linear/Bias -> biases in most RNN cells.
• Deprecated tf.select op. tf.where should be used instead.
• SparseTensor.shape has been renamed to SparseTensor.dense_shape. Same for
  SparseTensorValue.shape.
• Env::FileExists and FileSystem::FileExists now return a
  tensorflow::Status instead of a bool. Any callers to this function can be
  converted to a bool by adding .ok() to the call.
• C API: Type TF_SessionWithGraph has been renamed to TF_Session, indicating
  its preferred use in language bindings for TensorFlow. What was previously
  TF_Session has been renamed to TF_DeprecatedSession.
• C API: Renamed TF_Port to TF_Output.
• C API: The caller retains ownership of TF_Tensor objects provided to
  TF_Run, TF_SessionRun, TF_SetAttrTensor etc.
• Renamed tf.image.per_image_whitening() to
  tf.image.per_image_standardization()
• Move Summary protobuf constructors to tf.summary submodule.
• Deprecate histogram_summary, audio_summary, scalar_summary,
  image_summary, merge_summary, and merge_all_summaries.
• Combined batch_* and regular version of linear algebra and FFT ops. The
  regular op now handles batches as well. All batch_* Python interfaces were
  removed.
• tf.all_variables, tf.VARIABLES and tf.initialize_all_variables renamed
  to tf.global_variables, tf.GLOBAL_VARIABLES and
  tf.global_variables_initializer respectively.
• tf.zeros_initializer() and tf.ones_initializer() now return a callable
  that must be called with initializer arguments, in your code replace
  tf.zeros_initializer with tf.zeros_initializer()

Bug Fixes and Other Changes

• Use threadsafe version of lgamma function.
• Fix tf.sqrt handling of negative arguments.
• Fixed bug causing incorrect number of threads to be used for multi-threaded
  benchmarks.
• Performance optimizations for batch_matmul on multi-core CPUs.
• Improve trace, matrix_set_diag, matrix_diag_part and their gradients to
  work for rectangular matrices.
• Support for SVD of complex valued matrices.

0.11.0

Major Features and Improvements

• CUDA 8 support.
• cuDNN 5 support.
• HDFS Support.
• Adds Fused LSTM support via cuDNN 5 in tensorflow/contrib/cudnn_rnn.
• Improved support for NumPy style basic slicing including non-1 strides,
  ellipses, newaxis, and negative indices. For example complicated expressions
  like foo[1, 2:4, tf.newaxis, ..., :-3:-1, :] are now supported. In addition
  we have preliminary (non-broadcasting) support for sliced assignment to
  variables. In particular one can write var[1:3].assign([1,11,111]).
• Deprecated tf.op_scope and tf.variable_op_scope in favor of a unified tf.name_scope and tf.variable_scope. The new argument order of tf.variable_scope is incompatible with previous versions.
• Introducing core/util/tensor_bundle module: a module to efficiently
  serialize/deserialize tensors to disk. Will be used in TF's new checkpoint
  format.
• Added tf.svd for computing the singular value decomposition (SVD) of dense
  matrices or batches of matrices (CPU only).
• Added gradients for eigenvalues and eigenvectors computed using
  self_adjoint_eig or self_adjoint_eigvals.
• Eliminated batch_* methods for most linear algebra and FFT ops and promoted
  the non-batch version of the ops to handle batches of matrices.
• Tracing/timeline support for distributed runtime (no GPU profiler yet).
• C API gives access to inferred shapes with TF_GraphGetTensorNumDims and
  TF_GraphGetTensorShape.
• Shape functions for core ops have moved to C++ via
  REGISTER_OP(...).SetShapeFn(...). Python shape inference RegisterShape calls
  use the C++ shape functions with common_shapes.call_cpp_shape_fn. A future
  release will remove RegisterShape from python.

Bug Fixes and Other Changes

• Documentation now includes operator overloads on Tensor and Variable.
• tensorflow.__git_version__ now allows users to identify the version of the
  code that TensorFlow was compiled with. We also have
  tensorflow.__git_compiler__ which identifies the compiler used to compile
  TensorFlow's core.
• Improved multi-threaded performance of batch_matmul.
• LSTMCell, BasicLSTMCell, and MultiRNNCell constructors now default to
  state_is_tuple=True. For a quick fix while transitioning to the new
  default, simply pass the argument state_is_tuple=False.
• DeviceFactory's AddDevices and CreateDevices functions now return
  a Status instead of void.
• Int32 elements of list(type) arguments are no longer placed in host memory by
  default. If necessary, a list(type) argument to a kernel can be placed in host
  memory using a HostMemory annotation.
• uniform_unit_scaling_initializer() no longer takes a full_shape arg,
  instead relying on the partition info passed to the initializer function when
  it's called.
• The NodeDef protocol message is now defined in its own file node_def.proto
instead of graph.proto.
• ops.NoGradient was renamed ops.NotDifferentiable. ops.NoGradient will
  be removed soon.
• dot.h / DotGraph was removed (it was an early analysis tool prior
  to TensorBoard, no longer that useful). It remains in history
  should someone find the code useful.
• re2 / regexp.h was removed from being a public interface of TF.
  Should users need regular expressions, they should depend on the RE2
  library directly rather than via TensorFlow.

0.7.1

Bug Fixes and Other Changes

• Added gfile.Open and gfile.Copy, used by input_data.py.
• Fixed Saver bug when MakeDirs tried to create empty directory.
• GPU Pip wheels are built with cuda 7.5 and cudnn-v4, making them
  required for the binary releases. Lower versions of cuda/cudnn can
  be supported by installing from sources and setting the options
  during ./configure
• Fix dataset encoding example for Python3 (danijar)
• Fix PIP installation by not packaging protobuf as part of wheel,
  require protobuf 3.0.0b2.
• Fix Mac pip installation of numpy by requiring pip >= 1.10.1.
• Improvements and fixes to Docker image.

0.7.0

Major Features and Improvements

• Allow using any installed Cuda >= 7.0 and cuDNN >= R2, and add support
  for cuDNN R4
• Added a contrib/ directory for unsupported or experimental features,
  including higher level layers module
• Added an easy way to add and dynamically load user-defined ops
• Built out a good suite of tests, things should break less!
• Added MetaGraphDef which makes it easier to save graphs with metadata
• Added assignments for "Deep Learning with TensorFlow" udacity course

Bug Fixes and Other Changes

• Added a versioning framework for GraphDefs to ensure compatibility
• Enforced Python 3 compatibility
• Internal changes now show up as sensibly separated commits
• Open-sourced the doc generator
• Un-fork Eigen
• Simplified the BUILD files and cleaned up C++ headers
• TensorFlow can now be used as a submodule in another bazel build
• New ops (e.g., *fft, *_matrix_solve)
• Support for more data types in many ops
• Performance improvements
• Various bugfixes
• Documentation fixes and improvements

Breaking Changes to the API

• AdjustContrast kernel deprecated, new kernel AdjustContrastv2 takes and
  outputs float only. adjust_contrast now takes all data types.
• adjust_brightness's delta argument is now always assumed to be in [0,1]
  (as is the norm for images in floating point formats), independent of the
  data type of the input image.
• The image processing ops do not take min and max inputs any more, casting
  safety is handled by saturate_cast, which makes sure over- and underflows
  are handled before casting to data types with smaller ranges.
• For C++ API users: IsLegacyScalar and IsLegacyVector are now gone from
  TensorShapeUtils since TensorFlow is scalar strict within Google (for
  example, the shape argument to tf.reshape can't be a scalar anymore). The
  open source release was already scalar strict, so outside Google IsScalar
  and IsVector are exact replacements.
• The following files are being removed from tensorflow/core/public/:
  • env.h -> ../platform/env.h
  • status.h -> ../lib/core/status.h
  • tensor.h -> ../framework/tensor.h
  • tensor_shape.h -> ../framework/tensor_shape.h
  • partial_tensor_shape.h -> ../framework/partial_tensor_shape.h
  • tensorflow_server.h deleted
• For C++ API users: TensorShape::ShortDebugString has been renamed to
  DebugString, and the previous DebugString behavior is gone (it was
  needlessly verbose and produced a confusing empty string for scalars).
• GraphOptions.skip_common_subexpression_elimination has been removed. All
  graph optimizer options are now specified via
  GraphOptions.OptimizerOptions.
• ASSERT_OK / EXPECT_OK macros conflicted with external projects, so they
  were renamed TF_ASSERT_OK, TF_EXPECT_OK. The existing macros are
  currently maintained for short-term compatibility but will be removed.
• The non-public nn.rnn and the various nn.seq2seq methods now return
  just the final state instead of the list of all states.
• tf.scatter_update now no longer guarantees that lexicographically largest
  index be used for update when duplicate entries exist.
• tf.image.random_crop(image, [height, width]) is now
  tf.random_crop(image, [height, width, depth]), and tf.random_crop works
  for any rank (not just 3-D images). The C++ RandomCrop op has been replaced
  with pure Python.
• Renamed tf.test.GetTempDir and tf.test.IsBuiltWithCuda to
  tf.test.get_temp_dir and tf.test.is_built_with_cuda for PEP-8
  compatibility.
• parse_example's interface has changed, the old interface is accessible in
  legacy_parse_example (same for related functions).
• New Variables are not added to the same collection several times even if
  a list with duplicates is passed to the constructor.
• The Python API will now properly set the list member of AttrValue in
  constructed GraphDef messages for empty lists. The serialization of some
  graphs will change, but the change is both forwards and backwards compatible.
  It will break tests that compare a generated GraphDef to a golden serialized
  GraphDef (which is discouraged).

0.6.0

Major Features and Improvements

• Python 3.3+ support via changes to python codebase and ability
  to specify python version via ./configure.

• Some improvements to GPU performance and memory usage:
  convnet benchmarks
  roughly equivalent with native cudnn v2 performance. Improvements mostly due
  to moving to 32-bit indices, faster shuffling kernels. More improvements to
  come in later releases.

Bug Fixes

• Lots of fixes to documentation and tutorials, many contributed
  by the public.

• 271 closed issues on github issues.

Backwards-Incompatible Changes

• tf.nn.fixed_unigram_candidate_sampler changed its default 'distortion'
  attribute from 0.0 to 1.0. This was a bug in the original release
  that is now fixed.

0.5.0

Initial release of TensorFlow.
