Quick Start with PyTorch: Tensor Dimension Transformation and Common Operations

This article introduces the core knowledge of PyTorch tensors, including basics, dimension transformations, common operations, and exercise suggestions. Tensors are the basic structure for storing data in PyTorch, similar to NumPy arrays, and support GPU acceleration and automatic differentiation. They can be created using `torch.tensor()` from lists/numbers, `torch.from_numpy()` from NumPy arrays, or built-in functions to generate tensors of all zeros, ones, or random values. Dimension transformation is a key operation: `reshape()` flexibly adjusts the shape (keeping the total number of elements unchanged), `squeeze()` removes singleton dimensions, `unsqueeze()` adds singleton dimensions, and `transpose()`/`permute()` swap dimensions. Common operations include basic arithmetic operations, matrix multiplication with `matmul()`, broadcasting (automatic dimension expansion for operations), and aggregation operations such as `sum()`, `mean()`, and `max()`. The article suggests consolidating tensor operations through exercises, such as dimension adjustment, broadcasting mechanisms, and dimension swapping, to master the "shape language" and lay a foundation for subsequent model construction.

PyTorch Beginner's Guide: Understanding Model Construction with Simple Examples

This PyTorch beginner's tutorial covers core knowledge points: PyTorch is Python-based with obvious advantages in dynamic computation graphs and simple installation (`pip install torch`). The core data structure is the Tensor, which supports GPU acceleration, and can be created, manipulated (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, matrix multiplication), and converted to/from NumPy. Automatic differentiation (autograd) is implemented via `requires_grad=True` for gradient calculation, e.g., the derivative of \( y = x^2 + 3x \) at \( x = 2 \) is 7. A linear regression model inherits `nn.Module` for definition, with forward propagation implementing \( y = wx + b \). For data preparation, simulated data (\( y = 2x + 3 + \text{noise} \)) is generated, and batched loaded using `TensorDataset` and `DataLoader`. Training uses MSE loss and SGD optimizer, with gradient zeroing, backpropagation, and parameter updates in the loop. After 1000 epochs, results are validated and visualized, with learned parameters close to the true values. The core process covers tensor operations, automatic differentiation, model construction, data loading, and training optimization, enabling scalability to complex models.

Beginner's Guide to PyTorch: Build Your First Neural Network Model Step by Step

This article is an introductory PyTorch tutorial that explains core operations by building a fully connected neural network (MLP) model based on the MNIST dataset. First, install PyTorch (CPU/GPU version), load the MNIST dataset using torchvision, convert it to tensors with ToTensor, normalize with Normalize, and then use DataLoader for batch processing (batch_size=64). The model is defined as an MLP with an input layer of 784 (flattened 28×28 images), a hidden layer of 128 (ReLU activation), and an output layer of 10 (Softmax), implemented by inheriting nn.Module for forward propagation. CrossEntropyLoss is chosen as the loss function, and SGD with lr=0.01 is used as the optimizer. The model is trained for 5 epochs, with forward propagation, loss calculation, backpropagation, and parameter updates executed cyclically, printing the loss every 100 batches. During testing, the model is set to eval mode, gradient computation is disabled, and the accuracy on the test set is calculated. The tutorial also suggests extension directions, such as adjusting the network structure, replacing optimizers, or changing datasets.

Learning PyTorch from Scratch: A Beginner's Guide from Tensors to Neural Networks

This article introduces the core content and basic applications of PyTorch. Renowned for its flexibility, intuitiveness, and Python-like syntax, PyTorch is suitable for deep learning beginners and supports GPU acceleration and automatic differentiation. The core content includes: 1. **Tensor**: The basic data structure, similar to a multi-dimensional array. It supports creation from data, all-zero/all-one, random numbers, conversion with NumPy, shape operations, arithmetic operations (element-wise/matrix), and device conversion (CPU/GPU). 2. **Automatic Differentiation**: Implemented through `autograd`. Tensors with `requires_grad=True` will track their computation history, and calling `backward()` automatically computes gradients. For example, for the function \( y = x^2 + 3x - 5 \), the gradient at \( x = 2 \) is 7.0. 3. **Neural Network Construction**: Based on the `torch.nn` module, it includes linear layers (`nn.Linear`), activation functions, loss functions (e.g., MSE), and optimizers (e.g., SGD). It supports custom model classes and composition with `nn.Sequential`. 4. **Practical Linear Regression**: Generates simulated data \( y = 2x + 3 + \text{noise} \), defines a linear model, MSE loss,

Gradient Checking in Deep Learning Neural Networks

Thank you for your sharing and explanation! Indeed, Gradient Checking can effectively verify whether the gradient calculations in the backpropagation algorithm are correct. This technique is very useful when implementing deep learning models, as it helps us detect and correct issues in the code early on. For beginners, it is crucial to understand the processes of forward propagation, backpropagation, and gradient checking. The key points you mentioned—such as converting parameters and gradients into vector form for calculations, using small perturbations to approximate numerical gradients, and evaluating the reverse (comparing the differences between the two)—are essential for ensuring the correctness of the gradient computations.

Theoretical Knowledge Points of "Improving Deep Neural Networks"

### Practical Deep Learning and Optimization - **Dataset Splitting**: A common split ratio is 98% for training, 1% for validation, and 1% for testing. Increasing data volume or applying regularization can improve model performance. Validation and test sets should be from the same distribution. Adjusting regularization parameters helps reduce overfitting. - **Optimization Algorithms**: Mini-batch gradient descent is faster than full batch processing; the ideal mini-batch size ranges between 1 and m. Exponential weighted averages are used to track data changes; learning rate decay techniques like \(0.95^t \alpha_0\) and \(\frac{\alpha_0}{\sqrt{t}}\) are effective. Adam combines the advantages of RMSProp with momentum. ### Hyper
