- PyTorch 1.6.0 Release Notes Highlights Backwards Incompatible Changes Deprecations New Features Improvements Bug Fixes Performance Documentation Highlights The PyTorch 1.6 release includes a number of new APIs, tools for performance improvement and profiling, as well as major updates to both distributed data parallel (DDP) and remote procedure call (RPC) based distributed training.
- A few of the highlights include: Automatic mixed precision (AMP) training is now natively supported and a stable feature - thanks to NVIDIA’s contributions; Native TensorPipe support now added for tensor-aware, point-to-point communication primitives built specifically for machine learning; New profiling tools providing tensor-level memory consumption information; and Numerous improvements and new features for both distributed data parallel (DDP) training and the remote procedural call (RPC) packages.
