I've just added the binding today.

https://github.com/charlie5/cBound/tree/master/tier-1/tensorflow

Install instructions are in the top-level 'README.md'.

Bear in mind the binding is auto generated, thin and is the C API 
version '2.11.0'.

It's also auto-formatted using 'gnatpp' (for the Ada code) and 'indent' 
(for the C code).

Other than the 'hello_tf' demo, it's also untested.

I'll spend some time tomorrow cleaning up the formatting and removing 
some of the source code 'warts' (such as redundant 'with's).

If you try it, please let me know how it goes (especially bugs :) ).


Regards.
