What is the earliest version of Tensorflow that contains Tensorflow Lite?

I'm wondering when exactly Tensorflow Lite was first introduced into the Tensorflow source code? What was the first Tensorflow release date / version that contained TFLite?

Solution

  • Edit: Looking at the past releases, I see that tensorflow lite was made an official module in 1.13.1 2019 version. Here is what is stated: TensorFlow Lite Move from tensorflow/contrib/lite to tensorflow/lite

    Old Answer: The details of when it was released are in this article: https://venturebeat.com/2019/03/06/google-launches-tensorflow-lite-1-0-for-mobile-and-embeddable-devices/.

    It was introduced in 2019, but was demoed earlier in May 2017. The earliest version is Tensorflow Lite 1.0.
