I'm a scientific software engineer at Quansight working on PyTorch. I'm very active in the torchvision library and maintain the torchvision.datasets module there.
Outside of my work I have two major areas of interest:
- 🎨 Neural Style Transfer:
During my research towards a PhD, I fell in love with Neural Style Transfer. I realized pretty soon that the available tooling is insufficient. Out of frustration with all the existing solutions, I wrote my own library for Neural Style Transfer based on PyTorch:
pystiche. - 💻 Developer Experience:
Having worked on PyTorch and having written a library based on PyTorch I realized there are a few pain points for me. So I started some projects to make my life and hopefully everyone elses easier:
pytest-pytorch: PyTorch's test suite is only partially compatible withpytest. This is a small plugin to make them play ball.light-the-torch: Installing pure Python libraries that depend on PyTorch is quite frustrating, sincepiphas no option to detect the available computation backends (CUDA, ROCm) and install the correct PyTorch binary. This is a smallpipwrapper to make it happen.
- 💬 Ask me about: Python, PyTorch, Neural Style Transfer
- 📫 How to reach me: Open an issue in my personal repository. PyTorch is a very daunting project to contribute to. I'm happy to help to get you started.
