Optimizing CUDA Recurrent Neural Networks with TorchScript

This week, we officially released PyTorch 1.1, a large feature update to PyTorch 1.0. One of the new features we’ve added is better support for fast, custom Recurrent Neural Networks (fastrnns) with TorchScript (the PyTorch JIT) (https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/jit.html).

Stochastic Weight Averaging in PyTorch

In this blogpost we describe the recently proposed Stochastic Weight Averaging (SWA) technique [1, 2], and its new implementation in torchcontrib. SWA is a simple procedure that improves generalization in deep learning over Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) at no additional cost, and can be used as a drop-in replacement for any other optimizer in PyTorch. SWA has a wide range of applications and features:

The road to 1.0: production ready PyTorch

We would like to give you a preview of the roadmap for PyTorch 1.0 , the next release of PyTorch. Over the last year, we’ve had 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4 transform PyTorch from a [Torch+Chainer]-like interface into something cleaner, adding double-backwards, numpy-like functions, advanced indexing and removing Variable boilerplate. At this time, we’re confident that the API is in a reasonable and stable state to confidently release a 1.0.
