Write TensorBoard events with simple function call.
The current release (v2.6.3) is tested with PyTorch 2.6 / torchvision 0.21.0 / tensorboard 2.19.0 on Python 3.9 to 3.12

pip install tensorboardX
or build from source:
pip install 'git+https://github.com/lanpa/tensorboardX'
You can optionally install crc32c
to speed up.
pip install crc32c
Starting from tensorboardX 2.1, You need to install soundfile
for the add_audio()
function (200x speedup).
pip install soundfile
- Clone the files in https://github.com/lanpa/tensorboardX/tree/master/examples
- Run the demo script: e.g.
python examples/demo.py
- Start TensorBoard with
tensorboard --logdir runs

TensorboardX now supports logging directly to Comet. Comet is a free cloud based solution that allows you to automatically track, compare and explain your experiments. It adds a lot of functionality on top of tensorboard such as dataset management, diffing experiments, seeing the code that generated the results and more.
This works out of the box and just require an additional line of code. See a full code example in this Colab Notebook
