be replaced by calling `embedding_lookup` or `layers.dense` as pre- or post-
processing of the rnn. For RNN decoding, this functionality has been replaced
with an alternative API in `tf.contrib.seq2seq`.
+* Intel MKL Integration (https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/tensorflow-optimizations-on-modern-intel-architecture). Intel developed a number of
+ optimized deep learning primitives: In addition to matrix multiplication and
+ convolution, these building blocks include:
+ Direct batched convolution
+ Pooling: maximum, minimum, average
+ Normalization: LRN, batch normalization
+ Activation: rectified linear unit (ReLU)
+ Data manipulation: multi-dimensional transposition (conversion), split,
+ concat, sum and scale.
