What Is PyTorch?

PyTorch is a GPU-accelerated tensor computational framework that offers a high degree of flexibility and speed for deep learning. It integrates seamlessly with popular Python libraries such as NumPy, SciPy, and Cython, extending its functionality to meet the diverse needs of users. PyTorch also employs a tape-based system for automatic differentiation at both the functional and neural network layer level, ensuring accelerated NumPy-like functionality.
