PyTorch: Variables and autograd — PyTorch Tutorials 0.2.0_4 ...
seba1511.net › tutorials › beginnerA PyTorch Variable is a wrapper around a PyTorch Tensor, and represents a node in a computational graph. If x is a Variable then x.data is a Tensor giving its value, and x.grad is another Variable holding the gradient of x with respect to some scalar value. PyTorch Variables have the same API as PyTorch tensors: (almost) any operation you can do on a Tensor you can also do on a Variable; the difference is that autograd allows you to automatically compute gradients.
Adding a scalar? - PyTorch Forums
https://discuss.pytorch.org/t/adding-a-scalar/21827.01.2017 · Instead of having a number, you should instead have a one-element vector encapsulated in a Variable. Note that we don’t have yet broadcasting implemented in pytorch, but it will be implemented soon, so for the moment you need to expand the tensor by hand.. x = Variable(torch.from_numpy(np.ones(5))) y = Variable(torch.Tensor([2]).double()) # numpy is …
