Explore PyTorch from basics to advanced, covering tensors, autograd and dynamic computation graphs, simple neural networks, data loading, evaluation, and debugging, then advanced architectures, transfer learning, deployment, and distributed training.
Build simple neural networks in PyTorch by defining neurons and layers, performing forward passes, and training with loss functions and optimizers like SGD and Adam using the torch.nn module.
Leverage pre-trained models from Torchvision and Hugging Face transformers to accelerate training via transfer learning, then apply feature extraction or fine-tuning with domain-specific datasets, managing hyperparameters to avoid overfitting.
Master distributed training with PyTorch's distributed data parallel, optimize performance through gradient accumulation, mixed precision, and memory management, and scale across multiple GPUs or nodes.
Design and implement custom neural network layers and loss functions with torch.nn, including advanced activations like swish, mish, and gelu, and apply dropout and weight decay for regularization.
Mastering PyTorch teaches reproducibility, experiment tracking with Neptune and weights and biases, and hyperparameter tuning (grid search, random search, Bayesian optimization), plus staying current with arXiv and Google Scholar.
