No longer the upstart nipping at TensorFlow’s heels, PyTorch is a major force in the deep learning world today, perhaps primarily for research, but also in production applications more and more.

PyTorch PyTorch builds on the older Torch and Caffe2 frameworks. As you might guess from the name, PyTorch uses Python as its scripting language, and uses an evolved Torch C/CUDA back-end.

Is PyTorch better than TensorFlow for general use cases? originally appeared on Quora: the place to gain and share knowledge, empowering people to learn from others and better understand the world ...

There is a C++ API, but there isn’t half the support for other languages that TensorFlow offers. It’s quite conceivable that PyTorch will overtake TensorFlow within Python.
