PyTorch is a Python package that provides two high-level features:
- Tensor computation (like NumPy) with strong GPU acceleration
- Deep neural networks built on a tape-based autograd system
You can reuse your favorite Python packages such as NumPy, SciPy and Cython to extend PyTorch when needed.
You can write new neural network layers in Python using the torch API or your favorite NumPy-based libraries such as SciPy.
If you want to write your layers in C/C++, we provide a convenient extension API that is efficient and with minimal boilerplate. There is no wrapper code that needs to be written. You can see a tutorial here and an example here.
Commands to install from binaries via Conda or pip wheels are on our website: https://pytorch.org
Python wheels for NVIDIA's Jetson Nano, Jetson TX2, and Jetson AGX Xavier are available via the following URLs:
- Stable binaries:
- Rolling weekly binaries:
They require JetPack 4.2 and above, and @dusty-nv maintains them
If you are installing from source, you will need a C++14 compiler. Also, we highly recommend installing an Anaconda environment. You will get a high-quality BLAS library (MKL) and you get controlled dependency versions regardless of your Linux distro.
Once you have Anaconda installed, here are the instructions.
If you want to compile with CUDA support, install
- NVIDIA CUDA 9 or above
- NVIDIA cuDNN v7 or above
If you want to disable CUDA support, export environment variable USE_CUDA=0.
Other potentially useful environment variables may be found in setup.py.
If you are building for NVIDIA's Jetson platforms (Jetson Nano, TX1, TX2, AGX Xavier), Instructions to are available here

MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.9 CC=clang CXX=clang++ python setup.py installEach CUDA version only supports one particular XCode version. The following combinations have been reported to work with PyTorch.
| CUDA version | XCode version |
|---|---|
| 10.0 | XCode 9.4 |
| 10.1 | XCode 10.1 |
On Windows
At least Visual Studio 2017 Update 3 (version 15.3.3 with the toolset 14.11) and NVTX are needed.
If the version of Visual Studio 2017 is higher than 15.4.5, installing of "VC++ 2017 version 15.4 v14.11 toolset" is strongly recommended.
If the version of Visual Studio 2017 is lesser than 15.3.3, please update Visual Studio 2017 to the latest version along with installing "VC++ 2017 version 15.4 v14.11 toolset".
There is no guarantee of the correct building with VC++ 2017 toolsets, others than version 15.4 v14.11.
"VC++ 2017 version 15.4 v14.11 toolset" might be installed onto already installed Visual Studio 2017 by running its installation once again and checking the corresponding checkbox under "Individual components"/"Compilers, build tools, and runtimes".
NVTX is a part of CUDA distributive, where it is called "Nsight Compute". To install it onto already installed CUDA run CUDA installation once again and check the corresponding checkbox. Be sure that CUDA with Nsight Compute is installed after Visual Studio 2017.
Currently VS 2017, VS 2019 and Ninja are supported as the generator of CMake. If ninja.exe is detected in PATH, then Ninja will be used as the default generator, otherwise it will use VS 2017.
If Ninja is selected as the generator, the latest MSVC which is newer than VS 2015 (14.0) will get selected as the underlying toolchain if you have Python > 3.5, otherwise VS 2015 will be selected so you'll have to activate the environment. If you use CMake <= 3.14.2 and has VS 2019 installed, then even if you specify VS 2017 as the generator, VS 2019 will get selected as the generator.
CUDA and MSVC have strong version dependencies, so even if you use VS 2017 / 2019, you will get build errors like nvcc fatal : Host compiler targets unsupported OS. For this kind of problem, please install the corresponding VS toolchain in the table below and then you can either specify the toolset during activation (recommended) or set CUDAHOSTCXX to override the cuda host compiler (not recommended if there are big version differences).
| CUDA version | Newest supported VS version |
|---|---|
| 9.0 / 9.1 | Visual Studio 2017 Update 4 (15.4) (_MSC_VER <= 1911) |
| 9.2 | Visual Studio 2017 Update 5 (15.5) (_MSC_VER <= 1912) |
| 10.0 | Visual Studio 2017 (15.X) (_MSC_VER < 1920) |
| 10.1 | Visual Studio 2019 (16.X) (_MSC_VER < 1930) |

You can adjust the configuration of cmake variables optionally (without building first), by doing the following. For example, adjusting the pre-detected directories for CuDNN or BLAS can be done with such a step.
On Linux
export CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=${CONDA_PREFIX:-"$(dirname $(which conda))/../"}
python setup.py build --cmake-only
ccmake build # or cmake-gui buildOn macOS
export CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=${CONDA_PREFIX:-"$(dirname $(which conda))/../"}
MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.9 CC=clang CXX=clang++ python setup.py build --cmake-only
ccmake build # or cmake-gui buildYou can also pull a pre-built docker image from Docker Hub and run with docker v19.03+
docker run --gpus all --rm -ti --ipc=host pytorch/pytorch:latestPlease note that PyTorch uses shared memory to share data between processes, so if torch multiprocessing is used (e.g.
for multithreaded data loaders) the default shared memory segment size that container runs with is not enough, and you
should increase shared memory size either with --ipc=host or --shm-size command line options to nvidia-docker run.
NOTE: Must be built with a docker version > 18.06
The Dockerfile is supplied to build images with cuda support and cudnn v7.
You can pass PYTHON_VERSION=x.y make variable to specify which Python version is to be used by Miniconda, or leave it
unset to use the default.
make -f docker.Makefile
# images are tagged as docker.io/${your_docker_username}/pytorchTo build documentation in various formats, you will need Sphinx and the readthedocs theme.
cd docs/
pip install -r requirements.txt
You can then build the documentation by running make <format> from the
docs/ folder. Run make to get a list of all available output formats.
