Search help

Note: Searching from the top-level index page will search all documents. Searching from a specific document will search only that document.

Find an exact phrase: Wrap your search phrase in "" (double quotes) to only get results where the phrase is exactly matched. For example "PyTorch for the IPU" or "replicated tensor sharding"
Prefix query: Add an * (asterisk) at the end of any word to indicate a prefix query. This will return results containing all words with the specific prefix. For example tensor*

Fuzzy search: Use ~N (tilde followed by a number) at the end of any word for a fuzzy search. This will return results that are similar to the search word. N specifies the “edit distance” (fuzziness) of the match. For example Polibs~1
Words close to each other: ~N (tilde followed by a number) after a phrase (in quotes) returns results where the words are close to each other. N is the maximum number of positions allowed between matching words. For example "ipu version"~2
Logical operators. You can use the following logical operators in a search:
- + signifies AND operation
- | signifies OR operation
- - negates a single word or phrase (returns results without that word or phrase)
- () controls operator precedence

Support for dynamic batching in ModelRunner. Adds the ability to support dynamic batching with any batch size input data.
Support for conditional model execution in compiled graphs that contain more than one model. See Conditional execution in the Model Runtime User Guide.

Bug Fixes

Some errors could cause Model Runtime to hang instead of raising an error. This has been fixed.
