Running PyTorch Models on Jetson Nano
Overview NVIDIA Jetson Nano, part of the Jetson family of products or Jetson modules, is a small yet powerful Linux (Ubuntu) based embedded computer with 2/4GB GPU. With it, you can run many PyTorch models efficiently. This document summarizes our experience of running different deep learning models using 3 different mechanisms on Jetson Nano:

Introducing PyTorch Fully Sharded Data Parallel (FSDP) API
Recent studies have shown that large model training will be beneficial for improving model quality. During the last 3 years, model size grew 10,000 times from BERT with 110M parameters to Megatron-2 with one trillion. However, training large AI models is not easy—aside from the need for large amounts of computing resources, software engineering complexity is also challenging. PyTorch has been working on building tools and infrastructure to make it easier.
