2 PyTorch Fundamentals

In the previous chapter, we learned about the fundamental building blocks of a neural network and also implemented forward- and backpropagation from scratch in Python.

In this chapter, we will dive into the foundations of building a neural network using PyTorch, which we will leverage multiple times in subsequent chapters when we learn about various use cases in image analysis. We will start by learning about the core data type that PyTorch works on – tensor objects. We will then dive deep into the various operations that can be performed on tensor objects and how to leverage them when building a neural network model on top of a toy dataset (so that we strengthen our understanding before we gradually look at more realistic ...

Julian F.

Head of Cybersecurity

I wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.

Addison B.

Field Engineer

I’ve been on the O’Reilly platform for more than eight years. I use a couple of learning platforms, but I'm on O'Reilly more than anybody else. When you're there, you start learning. I'm never disappointed.

Amir M.

Data Platform Tech Lead

I'm always learning. So when I got on to O'Reilly, I was like a kid in a candy store. There are playlists. There are answers. There's on-demand training. It's worth its weight in gold, in terms of what it allows me to do.
