This blog post will guide you through the process of install Swift for Tensorflow on Ubuntu 18.04 (Local Machine/VM instance) and Start Coding with Swift on the Jupyter Notebook like you do in Python for Tensorflow.

Step 01: Installing CUDA

There are several versions of Swift-TF available to install as you prefer. Namely (on 30th March 2019), CPU only version, CUDA 9.2 version and CUDA 10.0 version. This section is only focused on CUDA installation. You can skip to the next step if you prefer CPU only installation.

If you have been working on Tensorflow or PyTorch, CUDA might be installed on your ubuntu machine. You can check the installed CUDA version using the below command

Welcome Everyone to the journey into Neural Style transfer. Let’s dive. 😃

Level one : Introduction

With the rise of Deep Learning technology people invented awesome things using this technology. Neural style transfer (aka Artistic style transfer) is one of the amazing works. It is introduced in 2015 by Gatys et al. I’m not going to make you sleepy by discussing details in the paper at this level. Let’s talk about the things can be done using the technology. I believe you all like to draw your painting in your favorite artist’s style. It not an easy task if you do not have enough skills in painting. Don’t worry, Deep Learning have power to reincarnate your favorite artist and make him/her to draw your painting. Looking amazing right?. Let me show you an example.
