PyTorch 1.5 released, new and updated APIs including C++ frontend API parity with Python
Today, we’re announcing the availability of PyTorch 1.5, along with new and updated libraries. This release includes several major new API additions and improvements. PyTorch now includes a significant update to the C++ frontend, ‘channels last’ memory format for computer vision models, and a stable release of the distributed RPC framework used for model-parallel training. The release also has new APIs for autograd for hessians and jacobians, and an API that allows the creation of Custom C++ ...

PyTorch 1.4 released, domain libraries updated
Today, we’re announcing the availability of PyTorch 1.4, along with updates to the PyTorch domain libraries. These releases build on top of the announcements from NeurIPS 2019, where we shared the availability of PyTorch Elastic, a new classification framework for image and video, and the addition of Preferred Networks to the PyTorch community. For those that attended the workshops at NeurIPS, the content can be found here.

PyTorch adds new tools and libraries, welcomes Preferred Networks to its community
PyTorch continues to be used for the latest state-of-the-art research on display at the NeurIPS conference next week, making up nearly 70% of papers that cite a framework. In addition, we’re excited to welcome Preferred Networks, the maintainers of the Chainer framework, to the PyTorch community. Their teams are moving fully over to PyTorch for developing their ML capabilities and services.

PyTorch 1.3 adds mobile, privacy, quantization, and named tensors
PyTorch continues to gain momentum because of its focus on meeting the needs of researchers, its streamlined workflow for production use, and most of all because of the enthusiastic support it has received from the AI community. PyTorch citations in papers on ArXiv grew 194 percent in the first half of 2019 alone, as noted by O’Reilly, and the number of contributors to the platform has grown more than 50 percent over the last year, to nearly 1,200. Facebook, Microsoft, Uber, and other organiz...
