Hi,
There has been a previous project trying to build an Octave interface to TensorFlow via Pytave [1].
As Pytave has since evolved to become Pythonic [2], one approach worth considering would be to pick-up
where that project had left and complete it using Pythonic.

Sure, 
I will check it out. Sorry I did not know about the previous attempts and try to get a hold of them. 
I have one more approach in mind, which would be using MLPack and integrate it with the octave framework. MLpack is completely written in C++, it will therefore give us more flexibility to integrate it with octave. 
I will check out pythonic and will discuss maybe how to go about it and continue the project. 
Thank and Regards
