Tensorflow.js tf.getBackend() Function

Tensorflow.js is an open-source library developed by Google for running machine learning models and deep learning neural networks in the browser or node environment. It also helps the developers to develop ML models in JavaScript language and can use ML directly in the browser or in Node.js.

The tf.getBackend() function is used to return the current backend name.

Syntax:

tf.getBackend()

Parameters:

  • It takes no parameters

Return Value: It returns a string value.

Example 1:

Javascript




// Setting the backend
tf.setBackend("cpu")
  
// Getting the backend using getBackend method
console.log(tf.getBackend())


Output:

cpu

Example 2: In this example, we have set the backend to the string “cpu” and then removed it and then set it to string “webgl”.

Javascript




// Setting the backend
tf.setBackend("cpu")
  
tf.removeBackend('cpu')
  
console.log(tf.getBackend())
  
tf.setBackend("webgl")
// Getting the backend using getBackend method

As a software developer I’m interested in the intersection of computational thinking and design thinking when solving human problems. As a professional I am guided by the principles of experiential learning; experience, reflect, conceptualise and experiment.
