It looks like TensorFlow is C++ with a Python front-end. The 
first thing I would try is using PyD to call the python 
TensorFlow library. There's work being done on calling C++ 
libraries from D, but I don't have any experience with it.

I just read the Learning D book's section on C bindings. I found 
it advanced, but a good read. There are some tools that help 
transforming .h files to .d files (htod and dstep).
