Introduction to PyTorch

slides:none on file

Hands‑on PyTorch code runs on Google Colab with GPU and a linked GitHub repo; examples include a toy adding network (learning takes ~2,000 training samples), a rotation‑matrix generator that improves with deeper nets, a small CNN on CIFAR‑10 reaching ~50% after three epochs, and ResNet50 transfer learning that hits ~89% validation accuracy from ~250 images. Also covers RNN/LSTM text generation (Shakespeare and Trump tweets), optimizer choices (Adam), and practical save/load workflows.
