What is PyTorch?
PyTorch is a dynamic tensor-based, deep learning framework for experimentation, research, and production. It can be used as a GPU-enabled replacement for NumPy or a flexible, efficient platform for building neural networks. The dynamic graph creation and tight Python integration makes PyTorch a standout in deep learning frameworks.
If you are at all familiar with the deep learning ecosystem, then frameworks such as Theano and TensorFlow, or higher-level derivatives such as Keras, are amongst the most popular. PyTorch is a relative newcomer to the deep learning framework set. Despite this, it is now being used extensively by Google, Twitter, and Facebook. It stands out from other frameworks in that both Theano and TensorFlow ...
