Overview
PyTorch is an open-source framework built for
developing machine learning and deep learning
models. In particular, this framework provides
the stability and support required for building
computational models in the development
phase and deploying them in the production
phase.

PyTorch functionalities are extensible with other Python libraries


like NumPy and SciPy. Additionally, the strong GPU
acceleration of PyTorch enables it to perform high-level tensor
computations with ease.

It’s also used with TorchScript, which is a built-in tool that


makes PyTorch flexible while seamlessly transitioning between
eager execution mode and graph mode to achieve higher
speed and optimization. The latest PyTorch versions also
support graph-based execution, distributed training, mobile
deployment, and quantization.

What Is PyTorch
Developed by Facebook AI in 2016, PyTorch, a Python library,
enables engineers and developers to perform fast computation
with a user-friendly front-end.

Currently, PyTorch is highly preferred by data scientists and


artificial intelligence engineers. It is predominantly used for neural
network architectures, such as Recurrent Neural Network (RNN),
Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), and similar neural networks.

PyTorch also offers a wide range of features, including


Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) support and dynamic
computation graphs. With PyTorch’s reverse-mode
auto-differentiation technique, developers can modify network
behavior with no lag or overhead. PyTorch is not limited only to
deep learning implementations, however.

While TorchScript provides flexibility and functionalities in C++


runtime environments, there is also a provision for collective
operation and support for an end-to-end workflow for machine
learning integration in mobile applications. Additionally, PyTorch is
well-suited for any complex mathematical computations due to its
faster GPU acceleration.

Key Terminology
To gain mastery in PyTorch, it is essential to understand some of its
key terminologies.

Tensors
Tensors are the fundamental data structures of PyTorch and other
deep learning frameworks like TensorFlow. They are multidimensional
arrays that are similar to NumPy arrays. Tensors are one of the core
components of PyTorch. The functionality of tensors is similar to that
of metrics, a well-known representation of an array of numbers. A
tensor is an N-dimensional array that acts as a data container. A 1D
tensor is known as a vector, whereas a 2D tensor is a metric.
