ZM
A free toolkit providing improved neural network performance
The model optimization is a little bit slow — it could be improved. They should introduce some type of deep learning accelerator, like Jetson Xavier NX. There is a lacking in vehicle recognition — types of vehicles. Differentiating between cars, SUVs and different types of light, heavy, and medium trucks can be tricky. We have to train such models ourselves and then transfer them onto OpenVINO.
Karthikeyan Katkam - PeerSpot reviewer
Better at converting actual text data to visual data than its competitors
I like PyTorch's scalability. I can use a very large scale of models that I can easily train in. OpenCV is also there, however, compared to OpenCV, PyTorch is better for converting actual text data to visual data. I'm actually developing my own tool for the application that I'm building for myself. It's a crypto exchange.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The initial setup is quite simple."
"The inferencing and processing capabilities are quite beneficial for our requirements."
"The features for model comparison, the feature for model testing, evaluation, and deployment are very nice. It can work almost with all the models."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"It’s reliable, secure and user-friendly. It allows you to develop any AIML project efficiently. PySearch is the best option for developing any project in the AIML domain. The product is easy to install."
"I like PyTorch's scalability."
"I like that PyTorch actually follows the pythonic way, and I feel that it's quite easy. It's easy to find compared to others who require us to type a long paragraph of code."
"Its interface is the most valuable. The ability to have an interface to train machine learning models and construct them with the high-level interface, without excess busting and reconstructing the same technical elements, is very useful."
"It's been pretty scalable in terms of using multiple GPUs."
"yTorch is gaining credibility in the research space, it's becoming easier to find examples of papers that use PyTorch. This is an advantage for someone who uses PyTorch primarily."
"The framework of the solution is valuable."
 

Cons

"It has some disadvantages because when you're working with very complex models, neural networks if OpenVINO cannot convert them automatically and you have to do a custom layer and later add it to the model. It is difficult."
"At this point, the product could probably just use a greater integration with more machine learning model tools."
"The model optimization is a little bit slow — it could be improved."
"On the production side of things, having more frameworks would be helpful."
"We faced an issue with PyTorch due to version incompatibility. PyTorch has no latest version after v12.3."
"There is not enough documentation about some methods and parameters. It is sometimes difficult to find information."
"The training of the models could be faster."
"The product has breakdowns when we change the versions a lot."
"I would like to see better learning documents."
"I would like a model to be available. I think Google recently released a new version of EfficientNet. It's a really good classifier, and a PyTorch implementation would be nice."
"The analyzing and latency of compiling could be improved to provide enhanced results."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We didn't have to pay for any licensing with Intel OpenVINO. Everything is available on their site and easily downloadable for free."
"It is free."
"PyTorch is open source."
"PyTorch is open-sourced."
"The solution is affordable."
"It is free."
"PyTorch is an open-source solution."
