    From the README

    This is a collection of simple PyTorch implementations of neural networks and related algorithms. These implementations are documented with explanations,

    The website renders these as side-by-side formatted notes. We believe these would help you understand these algorithms better.

    We are actively maintaining this repo and adding new implementations almost weekly. for updates.
