Porting Modes

You have the two options for porting your training script developed based on the TensorFlow Python APIs to the Ascend AI Processor:

• Automated porting

  Algorithm engineers can use the porting tool to analyze the support for the TensorFlow Python and Horovod APIs on the Ascend AI Processor, and automatically port native TensorFlow training scripts to those supported by the Ascend AI Processor. For APIs unportable by the tool, modify your training scripts according to the tool report.

• Manual porting

  Algorithm engineers can modify TensorFlow training scripts to adapt them to the Ascend AI Processor. This mode is more complex. The more friendly automated porting mode is recommended.
