Learning PyTorch

Purpose of the post To serve as a reference guide for PyTorch and Machine Learning. I plan to update this post as I progress with PyTorch. What is PyTorch? PyTorch is a machine learning library developed by Facebook AI Research (FAIR). It is widely used for deep learning tasks and provides a flexible, dynamic interface for building and training neural networks. What are Tensors? Tensors are fundamental data structures in machine learning that generalize numbers, vectors, and matrices to multiple dimensions. They are used to represent and process numerical data efficiently, storing inputs, weights, and outputs of machine learning models. In frameworks like TensorFlow and PyTorch, tensors enable large-scale mathematical operations in an optimized manner, especially on GPUs, and allow automatic gradient computation, which is essential for training neural networks. ...
