Notes
Since PyTorch 1.10.0 has been released and **we have provided the pre-compiled packages for it**, we plan to end the support for PyTorch 1.3 and 1.4 in future releases. We will still provide pre-compiled packages of these two versions for three months, but the reliability and technical support are not guaranteed.
