7:00 – 8:30 Research

• Sent a note to Don about getting together on Thursday
• Added to the list of journals and conferences. Included the Journal of Political Philosophy, which is where The Law of GP was originally published

9:00 – 4:30 BRC

• Installing Tensorflow as per the instructions for CUDA and Anaconda
  • May need to install Python 2.7 version due to TF incompatibility with prebuilt python distros
  • Looks like I need visual studio for CUDA support, which is excessive. Going to try the CPU-only version
  • Installing Anaconda3-4.3.0.1-Windows-x86_64.exe.  Nope, based on Aaron’s experiences, I’m going to install natively
• Tensorflow native pip installation
  • Uninstalled old Python
  • Installed python-3.5.2-amd64.exe from here
  • Did the cpu install:

     pip3 install --upgrade tensorflow

  • Ran the ‘hello world’ program

    import tensorflow as tf
    hello = tf.constant('Hello, TensorFlow!')
    sess = tf.Session()
    print(sess.run(hello))

  • Success!!!
