Facebook Debuts PyTorch 1.3 With PyTorch Mobile, Quantization, TPU Support and More

Facebook has updated its popular open-source deep-learning library PyTorch. The latest version, PyTorch 1.3, includes PyTorch Mobile, quantization, and Google Cloud TPU support. The release was announced today at the PyTorch Developer Conference in San Francisco. PyTorch Mobile enables an end-to-end workflow from Python to deployment on iOS and Android. Facebook believes it is increasingly important to be able to run machine learning models on devices such as today's supercharged smartphones, as this delivers lower latency and can help preserve data privacy for example through federated learning approaches. Currently, PyTorch Mobile is in the experimental mode and remains under examination and development.
