Description: # BxTorch
        
        BxTorch is a high-level library for working with [PyTorch](https://pytorch.org).
        It is designed to make PyTorch much simpler in the most common cases. Yet,
        it is engineered to be highly extensible in order to preserve PyTorch's
        flexibility --- while relieving you from writing boilerplate code.
        
        ## Installation
        
        BxTorch is available on PyPi, so simply run the following command:
        
        ```bash
        pip install bxtorch
        ```
        
        The package will install the dependencies specified [here](requirements.txt).
        If you plan to use plotting features of BxTorch, make sure to also install the
        following packages:
        
        ```txt
        matplotlib
        ```
        
        ## Features
        
        Generally, BxTorch provides an object-oriented approach to abstracting PyTorch's
        API. The core design objective is to provide an API both as simple and as
        extensible as possible --- usually at the expense of some milliseconds of
        execution time. Be aware that the goal of this library is *not* to maximize
        performance in cases where it is not needed.
        
        This does not mean that BxTorch does not care about performance: in fact, the
        library has built-in support for multi-GPU training, both within a single
        process and split over multiple processes.
        
        It must be emphasized that BxTorch is not meant to be a wrapper for PyTorch as
        Keras is for TensorFlow, for example. It only provides *extensions* for PyTorch.
        
        ## Documentation
        
        Examples of the usage of BxTorch can be found in the [docs folder](docs).
        Method documentation is currently only available as [docstrings](bxtorch).
