TensorFlow: "Attempting to use uninitialized value" in variable initialization

Question

I am trying to implement multivariate linear regression in Python using TensorFlow, but have run into some logical and implementation issues. My code throws the following error:

Attempting to use uninitialized value Variable
Caused by op u'Variable/read'

Ideally the weights output should be [2, 3]

def hypothesis_function(input_2d_matrix_trainingexamples,
                        output_matrix_of_trainingexamples,
                        initial_parameters_of_hypothesis_function,
                        learning_rate, num_steps):
    # calculate num attributes and num examples
    number_of_attributes = len(input_2d_matrix_trainingexamples[0])
    number_of_trainingexamples = len(input_2d_matrix_trainingexamples)

    #Graph inputs
    x = []
    for i in range(0, number_of_attributes, 1):
        x.append(tf.placeholder("float"))
    y_input = tf.placeholder("float")

    # Create Model and Set Model weights
    parameters = []
    for i in range(0, number_of_attributes, 1):
        parameters.append(
            tf.Variable(initial_parameters_of_hypothesis_function[i]))

    #Contruct linear model
    y = tf.Variable(parameters[0], "float")
    for i in range(1, number_of_attributes, 1):
        y = tf.add(y, tf.multiply(x[i], parameters[i]))

    # Minimize the mean squared errors
    loss = tf.reduce_mean(tf.square(y - y_input))
    optimizer = tf.train.GradientDescentOptimizer(learning_rate)
    train = optimizer.minimize(loss)

    #Initialize the variables
    init = tf.initialize_all_variables()

    # launch the graph
    session = tf.Session()
    session.run(init)
    for step in range(1, num_steps + 1, 1):
        for i in range(0, number_of_trainingexamples, 1):
            feed = {}
            for j in range(0, number_of_attributes, 1):
                array = [input_2d_matrix_trainingexamples[i][j]]
                feed[j] = array
            array1 = [output_matrix_of_trainingexamples[i]]
            feed[number_of_attributes] = array1
            session.run(train, feed_dict=feed)

    for i in range(0, number_of_attributes - 1, 1):
        print (session.run(parameters[i]))

array = [[0.0, 1.0, 2.0], [0.0, 2.0, 3.0], [0.0, 4.0, 5.0]]
hypothesis_function(array, [8.0, 13.0, 23.0], [1.0, 1.0, 1.0], 0.01, 200)

Answer 1

Run this:

init = tf.global_variables_initializer()
sess.run(init)

Or (depending on the version of TF that you have):

init = tf.initialize_all_variables()
sess.run(init)
