Antoine Pitrou commented on ARROW-2512: --------------------------------------- Ideally Plasma would give Python a CudaBuffer (or subclass thereof), no? If the current Buffer API and abstraction makes it difficult, I think we should take time to rethink it. That's what ARROW-2447 (which is nothing set in stone, just a sketch) proposes to do. > [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)
