I've shared a question with tensorflow tag on stackoverflow. It was not answered and the number of views is very low. Then I noticed that, many of the questions asked before me share the same fate as my question. Many of them were unanswered. 19,225 questions were shared with the Tensorflow tag and 9,391 were unanswered.

    If it's still unanswered and you actively want an answer to it, pease link it here. I'll make sure it gets triaged.

    And thanks to OP. It looks like there are a lot of them that can be closed manually - a quick scan found quite a few that're dupes, but didn't get enough votes to close, or just had the dup in a comment. I'll prune some of those. (That's not to say there are unanswered ones that don't need answers.)

      Thanks for your interest, I found the answer from my project advisor. In this case I will answer my own question.

      The problem you explained is the same to the other topics. But unanswered rate is not that high. I think the tensorflow question are hard to answer even it can find in internet. And also answering a question gets lots of time. In this case lots of people do not give this time for a question.

        I agree - they're hard. I found a bunch that could be handled mechanically, and I think we had a problem last year of answering questions in comments and then never creating a formal answer. But some of the problems are just head-scratchers, as you observe.

Very interesting, I had upvoted this. But this isn't something that should be tagged as "Show HN".

    Yeah you are right. A momentary blindness.
