There are a variety of multiprocessor and distributed environment possibilities. The most common reason for using more than one processor is, of course, to make models run faster. The time it takes to load MNIST—a relatively tiny dataset of 60,000 images—to memory is not significant. However, consider the situation where we have giga or terabytes of data, or if the data is distributed across multiple servers. The situation is even more complex when we consider online models, where data is being harvested from multiple servers in real time. Clearly, some sort of parallel processing capability is required.

Overview of this book
PyTorch is extremely powerful and yet easy to learn. It provides advanced features, such as supporting multiprocessor, distributed, and parallel computation. This book is an excellent entry point for those wanting to explore deep learning with PyTorch to harness its power.
This book will introduce you to the PyTorch deep learning library and teach you how to train deep learning models without any hassle. We will set up the deep learning environment using PyTorch, and then train and deploy different types of deep learning models, such as CNN, RNN, and autoencoders.
You will learn how to optimize models by tuning hyperparameters and how to use PyTorch in multiprocessor and distributed environments. We will discuss long short-term memory network (LSTMs) and build a language model to predict text.
By the end of this book, you will be familiar with PyTorch's capabilities and be able to utilize the library to train your neural networks with relative ease.
