The document discusses techniques for improving memory efficiency in PyTorch. It explains how to perform operations in-place to reuse memory buffers and avoid reallocating memory. Specific PyTorch APIs like fill_() that operate in-place are highlighted. Memory sharing strategies are presented, such as reusing memory buffers across layers after they are no longer needed. The technique of recomputing intermediate outputs during backpropagation to further reduce memory usage is also covered. Examples demonstrate how these approaches can enable training larger models with less memory.
