Practical Quantization in PyTorch
Quantization is a cheap and easy way to make your DNN run faster and with lower memory requirements. PyTorch offers a few different approaches to quantize your model. In this blog post, we’ll lay a (quick) foundation of quantization in deep learning, and then take a look at how each technique looks like in practice. Finally we’ll end with recommendations from the literature for using quantization in your workflows.

Introducing TorchVision’s New Multi-Weight Support API
TorchVision has a new backwards compatible API for building models with multi-weight support. The new API allows loading different pre-trained weights on the same model variant, keeps track of vital meta-data such as the classification labels and includes the preprocessing transforms necessary for using the models. In this blog post, we plan to review the prototype API, show-case its features and highlight key differences with the existing one.
