+#### Setup TensorFlow with CUDA in a uv Project
+
+TensorFlow can install its required CUDA user-space libraries as optional dependencies on Linux.
+The NVIDIA driver still has to be installed on the host system.
+
+```sh
+nvidia-smi
+uv add 'tensorflow[and-cuda]'
+```
+
+Verify whether TensorFlow was built with CUDA support and detects the GPU.
+
+```sh
+uv run python -c 'import tensorflow as tf; print("CUDA build:", tf.test.is_built_with_cuda()); print(tf.config.list_physical_devices("GPU"))'
+```
+
+If `CUDA build` is `True` but no GPU is listed and TensorFlow reports that it cannot load GPU
+libraries, the dynamic linker may not find the NVIDIA libraries installed inside the virtual
+environment.
+The following command temporarily adds all library directories from the installed `nvidia-*`
+packages.
+
+```sh
+SITE_PACKAGES=$(uv run python -c 'import site; print(site.getsitepackages()[0])')
+CUDA_LIBS=$(find "$SITE_PACKAGES/nvidia" -type d -name lib -printf '%p:')
+
+LD_LIBRARY_PATH="${CUDA_LIBS}/usr/lib" uv run python -c \
+  'import tensorflow as tf; print(tf.config.list_physical_devices("GPU"))'
+```
+
+If the test succeeds, store the path in a machine-specific dotenv file.
+
+```sh
+printf 'LD_LIBRARY_PATH=%s/usr/lib\n' "$CUDA_LIBS" > .env.cuda
+printf '.env.cuda\n' >> .gitignore
+```
+
+Run the project with the file explicitly.
+
+```sh
+uv run --env-file .env.cuda python <script>.py
+```
+
+To load it automatically, create a `.envrc` file and use
+[direnv](https://direnv.net/).
+
+```sh
+printf 'export UV_ENV_FILE="$PWD/.env.cuda"\n' > .envrc
+eval "$(direnv hook zsh)"

+```
+
+For more information about dotenv files in uv, refer to the
+[uv environment variable section](/wiki/programming_language/python/uv.md#loading-environment-variables).
+
+Some recent GPUs may require CUDA kernels to be compiled from PTX on the first run because the
+TensorFlow wheel does not yet contain native kernel binaries for their compute capability.
+For example, TensorFlow 2.21 reports this for an RTX 5060 Ti with compute capability `12.0a`.
+According to NVIDIA's
+[explanation of PTX compatibility](https://developer.nvidia.com/blog/understanding-ptx-the-assembly-language-of-cuda-gpu-computing/),
+embedded PTX can be compiled for newer GPU generations at runtime.
+The first start can therefore take considerably longer, while the resulting binary is normally
+cached for subsequent runs.
+
+Make sure the `ptxas` executable installed by the CUDA dependency is available in the virtual
+environment.
+
+```sh
+VENV_DIR=$(uv run python -c 'import sys; print(sys.prefix)')
+PTXAS=$(find "$VENV_DIR" -type f -name ptxas -print -quit)
+ln -sf "$PTXAS" "$VENV_DIR/bin/ptxas"
+```
+
+The library lookup problem is not caused by the GPU being new; it is an environment configuration
+issue.
+The new GPU generation only explains why TensorFlow falls back to PTX JIT compilation after the
+libraries have been found.

+### Automatically Updating `requirements.txt`
+
+Projects that still require a `requirements.txt` file can regenerate it automatically by using a Git
+`pre-commit` hook.
+The hook is executed before every commit and can export the current project dependencies before the
+changes are committed.
+
+For the export command see the
+[`requirements.txt` export section](#exporting-requirementstxt).
+For a general explanation of Git hooks refer to the
+[Git Hooks section](/wiki/linux/git_%28package%29.md#git-hooks) in the
+[Git package entry](/wiki/linux/git_%28package%29.md).
+
+### Exporting `requirements.txt`
+
+Although `uv` primarily manages dependencies through `pyproject.toml` and `uv.lock`, some tools like
+[pip](/wiki/programming_language/python.md#pip) and other
+[virtual environments](/wiki/programming_language/python.md#using-virtual-environments) still expect
+a `requirements.txt` file.
+
+The recommended way to generate it is by exporting the locked project dependencies.
+
+```sh
+uv export --format requirements-txt -o requirements.txt
+```
+
+This creates a reproducible `requirements.txt` based on the project's lock file.
+
+Alternatively, the packages currently installed in the active virtual environment can be exported.
+
+```sh
+uv pip freeze > requirements.txt
+```
+
+Unlike `uv export`, this command only lists the packages that are currently installed and therefore
+depends on the state of the active environment.
+
+If a `requirements.txt` file should always stay in sync with the project dependencies, it can be
+automatically regenerated using a Git `pre-commit` hook.
+For more information refer to the

+Python library for removing image backgrounds using pretrained
+[neural networks](/wiki/neural_network.md) executed through ONNX Runtime.
+
+## Setup
+
+rembg can be installed from source as described on the
+[official GitHub repository](https://github.com/danielgatis/rembg).
+
+Alternatively a [Python package manager](/wiki/programming_language/python.md#package-management)
+can be used to install rembg.
+For the backend one must select CPU or GPU usage.
+For command line usage an extra package has to be installed in addition to the inference backend.
+Depending on that choice the name of the package will be `"rembg[cpu,cli]"` or `rembg[gpu,cli]`.
+
+## Usage
+
+This section addresses the usage of rembg.
+
+### Remove Background
+
+The following command removes the background from an image using a specific `<model>`.
+In this case `<input>` is a placeholder for the input image path and `<output>` for the output image
+path.
+
+```sh
+rembg i -m <model> <input> <output>
+```
+
+Depending on the use-case other models may also be used.
+`u2net` is a general purpose model and most of the time a good default.
+`u2net_human_seg` is optimized for human subjects.
+`isnet-general-use` is an alternative general-purpose model.
+
+The quality depends on the selected model and the input image.
+For portraits with complex backgrounds such as bushes or trees, `u2net` often produces the best
+overall results, while other models may perform better on different types of images.
+
+Additionally, alpha matting can improve difficult edges such as hair.
+
+```sh
+rembg i -m <model> -a <input> <output>
+```
