William Paul commented on ARROW-2512: ------------------------------------- I took that to mean bindings of CudaBuffer, CudaBufferWriter, etc. in Python. This issue is what to return if a user creates a GPU object from the python Plasma Client and wants to do computation from Python on that object using the GPU. > [Python ]Enable direct interaction of GPU Objects in Python > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: ARROW-2512 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-2512 > Project: Apache Arrow > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: GPU, Plasma (C++), Python > Reporter: William Paul > Priority: Minor > Labels: pull-request-available > Time Spent: 10m > Remaining Estimate: 0h > > Plasma can now manage objects on the GPU, but in order to use this > functionality in Python, there needs to be some way to represent these GPU > objects in Python that allows computation on the GPU. > The easiest way to enable this is to rely on a third party library, such as > Pytorch, which will allow us to use all of its existing functionality. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
