python-pytorchHow can I use Python and PyTorch to run a model on a CPU only system?


You can use Python and PyTorch to run a model on a CPU only system by setting the device to 'cpu'. This can be done when creating the model, for example:

model = MyModel().to(device='cpu')

You can also set the device when running the model, for example:

output = model(inputs, device='cpu')

Code explanation

  • MyModel(): This is the model that you want to run on the CPU.
  • .to(device='cpu'): This sets the device to the CPU.
  • model(inputs, device='cpu'): This runs the model on the CPU.

For further information, see the PyTorch documentation on setting the device.
