How to see how the layer method and others are written in tensorflow?

Question

Machine learning

How can I see how different tensorflow layers are written, like Dense, Conv2D, etc., to better understand how neural networks work?

Answer 1

TensorFlow has great documentation . There are also links to github where you can dig deeper into the sources.

Answer 2

For most tasks, looking at the source code to understand the basics is a good idea, but reading the tf code to understand neural networks is overkill. Frameworks of this level are overly optimized, and optimizations lead to code complexity.
