## Unreleased
### Changed

## v0.18.0
### Changed
- PyTorch v2.5 support

## v0.17.0
### Changed
- PyTorch v2.4 support

## v0.16.0
### Changed
- PyTorch v2.3 support

## v0.15.0
### Changed
- PyTorch v2.2 support

## v0.14.0
### Changed
- PyTorch v2.1 support
  [803]https://github.com/LaurentMazare/tch-rs/pull/803.
- Add a `pyo3-tch` crate for interacting with Python via PyO3
  [730]https://github.com/LaurentMazare/tch-rs/pull/730.
- Expose the cuda fuser enabled flag,
  [728]https://github.com/LaurentMazare/tch-rs/pull/728.
- Improved the safetensor error wrapping,
  [720]https://github.com/LaurentMazare/tch-rs/pull/720.

## v0.13.0 - 2023-05-18
### Added
- Support static linking in the build script,
  [712]https://github.com/LaurentMazare/tch-rs/pull/712.
- Make the libtorch download opt-in rather than a default behavior. The libtorch
  library download can still be triggered by enabling the `download-libtorch`
  feature, [707]https://github.com/LaurentMazare/tch-rs/pull/707.
- Rename the `of_...` conversion functions to `from_...` so as to be closer to
  the Rust best practices,
  [706]https://github.com/LaurentMazare/tch-rs/pull/706. This is a breaking
  change and will require modifying calls such as `of_slice` to be `from_slice`
  instead.
- Expose some functions so that Python extensions that operates on PyTorch
  tensors can be written with `tch`,
  [704]https://github.com/LaurentMazare/tch-rs/pull/704.
- Rework the torch-sys build script making it easier to leverage a Python
  PyTorch install as a source for libtorch,
  [703]https://github.com/LaurentMazare/tch-rs/pull/703.

## v0.12.0 - 2023-05-10
### Changed
- EfficientNet models have been reworked, pre-trained models used `safetensors`
  weight by default, [679]https://github.com/LaurentMazare/tch-rs/pull/679.
- None can be used for nullable scalar types,
  [680]https://github.com/LaurentMazare/tch-rs/pull/680.
- Automated conversion of list arguments: all the generated functions that take
  as input a slice of int or float can now be used directly with int values or
  fixed length arrays [682]https://github.com/LaurentMazare/tch-rs/pull/682.
- Replace the `From<Tensor>` traits with some `TryFrom` versions,
  [683]https://github.com/LaurentMazare/tch-rs/pull/683. This is a breaking
  change, note that also the old version would flatten the tensor if needed to
  reduce the number of dimensions, this has to be done explicitely with the new
  version.

## v0.11.0 - 2023-03-20
### Added

### Added
- Add some helper functions in a utils module to check the available devices and versions.

## v0.10.2 - 2023-02-19
### Added
- Add the `eps` and `amsgrad` options to Adam, [600]https://github.com/LaurentMazare/tch-rs/pull/600.
### Changed
- Fix loading of `VarStore` when using `Mps` devices, [623]https://github.com/LaurentMazare/tch-rs/pull/623.
- Use `ureq` instead of `curl` to reduce compile times, [620]https://github.com/LaurentMazare/tch-rs/pull/620.
- Fix the handling of dicts in TorchScript, [597]https://github.com/LaurentMazare/tch-rs/issues/597.

## v0.10.1 - 2022-12-12
