Release Notes Published

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](soumith/convnet-benchmarks#66) 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

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.
