How PyTorch Is Challenging TensorFlow Lately

Google's TensorFlow and Facebook's PyTorch are the most popular machine learning frameworks. The former has a two-year head start over PyTorch (released in 2016). TensorFlow's popularity reportedly declined after PyTorch bursted into the scene. However, Google released a more user-friendly TensorFlow 2.0 in January 2019 to recover lost ground. PyTorch is emerging as a leader in terms of papers in leading research conferences.
