PyTorch is an enormously popular framework for developing deep learning models in Python. However, scikit-learn is one of the most popular libraries for general machine learning. Skorch is a wrapper for PyTorch that allows one to use models written with PyTorch with the scikit-learn library. In this talk, we will explore how skorch allows for PyTorch models to be easily incorporated into scikit-learn data/training pipelines, cross-validation and hyperparameter search schemes and eliminates the need for boilerplate training code.

The Compute Ontario Colloquia are weekly Zoom presentations on Advanced Research Computing, High Performance Computing, Research Data Management, and Research Software topics, delivered by staff from three Compute Ontario consortia (CAC, SciNet, SHARCNET) and guest speakers. The series began January 2023 and superseded similar series previously delivered by individual consortia (e.g. General Interest Seminars by SHARCNET or User Group Meeting TechTalks by SciNet). The colloquia are one hour long and include time for questions. No registration is required. Presentations are usually recorded and uploaded to the hosting consortium video channel (colloquia hosted by SHARCNET go to our youtube channel).
