flashlight VS Pytorch

I think a comparison to PyTorch, TensorFlow and/or JAX is more relevant than a comparison to CuPy/NumPy.

And then maybe also a comparison to Flashlight (https://github.com/flashlight/flashlight) or other C/C++ based ML/computing libraries?

Also, there is no mention of it, so I suppose this does not support automatic differentiation?

This Facebook ai project seems reasonably structured after looking at its CMakeLists.txt. CMake is a build generator for c++, it's how you make binaries to run your project: https://github.com/flashlight/flashlight

I built and maintain Flashlight, a C++-first library for ML/DL. We built Flashlight to be:

I’ve never used it, but Facebook’s flashlight looks interesting

Flashlight bro, not flash. Read again

I've had good results with https://github.com/flashlight/flashlight/blob/master/flashli.... Seems to work well with spoken english in a variety of accents. Biggest limitation is that the architecture they have pretrained models for doesn't really work well with clips longer than ~15 seconds, so you have to segment your input files.

TensorFlow, developed by Google, and PyTorch, developed by Facebook, are two of the most popular frameworks for building and training complex machine learning models. TensorFlow is known for its flexibility and robust scalability, making it suitable for both research prototypes and production deployments. PyTorch is praised for its ease of use, simplicity, and dynamic computational graph that allows for more intuitive coding of complex AI models. Both frameworks support a wide range of AI models, from simple linear regression to complex deep neural networks.

> does PyTorch have a similar concept

of course https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/blob/main/torch/utils/_py...

fyi should work on most 40xx[1]

Sure, right here: https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/blob/main/torch/autograd/...

Here's the documentation: https://pytorch.org/tutorials/intermediate/forward_ad_usage....

> When an input, which we call “primal”, is associated with a “direction” tensor, which we call “tangent”, the resultant new tensor object is called a “dual tensor” for its connection to dual numbers[0].

*My post explains Dot, Matrix and Element-wise multiplication in PyTorch.

In PyTorch with @, dot() or matmul():

import torch # we use PyTorch: https://pytorch.org data = torch.tensor(encode(text), dtype=torch.long) print(data.shape, data.dtype) print(data[:1000]) # the 1000 characters we looked at earlier will to the GPT look like this

AI's Open Embrace Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are increasingly leveraging open-source frameworks like TensorFlow [https://www.tensorflow.org/] and PyTorch [https://pytorch.org/]. This democratization of AI tools is driving innovation and lowering entry barriers across industries.

Which label applies to a tool sometimes depends on what you do with it. For example, PyTorch or TensorFlow can be called a library, a toolkit, or a machine-learning framework.

In PyTorch with * or mul(). ` or mul()` can multiply 0D or more D tensors by element-wise multiplication:
