Amazon Elastic Inference adds support for PyTorch machine learning models - SiliconANGLE

Amazon Web Services Inc. announced today that it's adding support for PyTorch models with its Amazon Elastic Inference service, which it said will help developers reduce the costs of deep learning inference by as much as 75% in some cases. Amazon Elastic Inference is a service launched in late 2018 that enables customers to attach graphics processing unit-powered inference acceleration to a standard Amazon EC2 instance. Inference refers to the process of making predictions using a trained deep learning model. PyTorch is an open-source machine learning library that was first developed by Facebook Inc. It's used primarily for applications such as computer vision and natural language processing.
