...It achieves this by providing simple and extensible interfaces and abstractions for model components, and by using PyTorch’s capabilities of exporting models for inference via the optimized Caffe2 execution engine. We use PyText at Facebook to iterate quickly on new modeling ideas and then seamlessly ship them at scale. Distributed-training support built on the new C10d backend in PyTorch 1.0. Mixed precision training support through APEX (trains faster with less GPU memory on NVIDIA Tensor Cores). Extensible components that allows easy creation of new models and tasks.
