Study Notes

Tensor Types

Tensor: a multi-dimensional array of numerical values
torch.Tensor: a tensor type in PyTorch

Tensor Operations

torch.tensor(): creates a tensor from a Python list or sequence
x.pow(2): performs exponentiation operation on tensor x
abs(): computes the absolute value of a tensor
tensor.backward(): computes the gradients of a tensor
sum(): computes the sum of a tensor

Tensor Terms

requires_grad: a flag indicating whether a tensor requires gradient computation
dtype: the data type of a tensor (e.g. torch.int32, torch.float64)
device: the device where a tensor is stored (e.g. CPU, GPU, CUDA)
layout: the memory layout of a tensor
storage: the underlying storage of a tensor

Tensor Features

** tensor.to()**: moves a tensor to a specified device
tensor.view(): returns a new tensor with a different shape and size, but shared storage
tensor.grad: represents the gradients of a tensor
tensor.storage: holds the underlying storage of a tensor

Tensor Creation

torch.tensor(): creates a tensor from a Python list or sequence, with a warning about the current implementation
torch.zeros(): creates a tensor filled with zeros, with a specified data type
torch.ones(): creates a tensor filled with ones, with a specified data type and device

Tensor Access and Modification

tensor.item(): gets a Python number from a tensor containing a single value
Tensor contents can be accessed and modified using indexing and assignment operations

Warning and Notes

Warning: using the torch.tensor() constructor may have performance implications
requires_grad=True: enables gradient computation for a tensor
tensor.backward(): computes the gradients of a tensor
