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

10. Data we collect

Graphcore’s PopVision® tools collect data from you about the way in which you use them, as described in Send telemetry. The data we collect depends on how you interact with the tools and may change between releases. This data helps us to develop and improve the tools.

We do not obtain any personal data when you use the PopVision® tools. On installation, we randomly generate a unique identifier to link your interactions with the application. This identifier is stored and can be seen at any time in the About PopVision® System Analyser dialog. We also randomly generate an identifier each time you open the tool to distinguish between sessions of usage.

We do not collect any data about the reports or models you analyse, such as the names of variables and events.
