Random number seed fixed in TensorFlow and Numpy A little different

A very irrelevant note. TensorFlow's tf.set_random_seed () seems to behave slightly differently from Numpy'snp.random.seed (). It seems that Numpy resets the seed every time np.random.seed () and generates the same pseudo-random sequence again, whereas TensorFlow does not.

I wrote a sentence in which Japanese is not good, but when I execute the following code, it probably comes through.

import numpy as np
import tensorflow as tf

print '===== Numpy ====='
np.random.seed(0)
print np.random.uniform(size=5)
print np.random.uniform(size=5)

print 'Numpy can reset seed'
np.random.seed(0)
print np.random.uniform(size=5)
print np.random.uniform(size=5)

print '===== TensorFlow ====='
tf.set_random_seed(0)
with tf.Session() as sess:
    print sess.run(tf.random_uniform([5]))
    print sess.run(tf.random_uniform([5]))

print 'TensorFlow does not reset seed'
tf.set_random_seed(0)
with tf.Session() as sess:
    print sess.run(tf.random_uniform([5]))
    print sess.run(tf.random_uniform([5]))

If you re-execute the code completely, the same pseudo-random number sequence will be generated again, so there is no problem in terms of experiment reproducibility, but for example, if you continue to do % run hoge.py on IPython, it will be seeded. I was careful because it wasn't reset, so I noticed.

By the way, R is the same denomination as Numpy.
