Numpy DLPack Array Conversion Example

This example demonstrates how a underlying array memory can be handed off between two DLPack compatible frameworks without requiring any copies. In this case, we demonstrate how to convert numpy to TVM's NDArray and vice-versa with proper memory handling. We hope that not only is this directly useful for TVM users, but also a solid example for how similar efficient copies can be implemented in other array frameworks.

File Breakdown

dlpack.py: Contains the definition of common DLPack structures shared between frameworks. Mirrors the official C++ definitions.

from_numpy.py: Demonstrates how to convert a numpy array into a PyCapsule containing a DLPack Tensor.

to_numpy.py: Demonstrates how to take a PyCapsule with a DLPack Tensor and convert it into a numpy array.

test.py: Shows how to_numpy and from_numpy can be used to convert tensor formats without copies.
