Model Transformations and Optimizations
Olive provides multiple transformations and optimizations, also known as Olive Passes, to improve model performance. Typically, the input model goes through series of transformations before it is ready for the production. The Olive Passes are designed to receive an input model that is the output of another Olive Pass.
PyTorch transformations can be applied on the PyTorch model before it is converted to ONNX. After applying series of ONNX transformations the model could be converted, if needed, to the format preferred by the native hardware specific SDK.
Olive receives PyTorch or ONNX model as an input. Olive can produce PyTorch or ONNX or hardware native model as an output.
