torchvision
PyTorch library with datasets, image transforms and pre-built models for computer vision tasks.
How the 7.8 was reached
- Quality of output7/10
17.9k stars and 7.3k forks show heavy use; a benchmark shows Albumentations faster at augmentation. github.com
- Ease of use8/10
One-line pip or conda install; versions must match PyTorch releases. pypi.org
- Pricing value10/10
Free and open source with no required paid dependency. pypi.org
- API and integration quality8/10
Documented Python APIs for datasets, transforms and models, integrated with the PyTorch ecosystem. pytorch.org
- Solves the problem it claims to solve6/10
Provides datasets, transforms and models as claimed; only vendor description, though adoption is large. github.com

Pros & Cons
Pros
- Free and open source
- 17.9k stars and 7.3k forks show heavy use
- Fits into the PyTorch ecosystem
- One-line install
Cons
- Versions must match PyTorch releases
- A benchmark shows Albumentations is faster at augmentation
- Evidence of fit rests mostly on the project description
The default starting point for anyone doing computer vision in PyTorch. If augmentation speed is your main need, compare it with Albumentations.
