# This script renames event names in TensorBoard log files.
# It does the renaming in-place (so make back ups!).
#
# Example:
#
# find . -name "*.tfevents*" -exec tb-rename-events.py {} "iteration-time" "iteration-time/iteration-time" \;
#
# More than one old tag can be remapped to one new tag – use ";" as a separator:
#
# tb-rename-events.py events.out.tfevents.1 "training loss;validation loss" "loss"
#
