    Well, the title for the tool is confusing. The first thing that came to my mind was a wireless communication-related toolset.

      And I thought it was about a stick with flammable material on top. Probably the truth sits somewhere in the middle and this is a stick for communication.

      Only if you have been living under the rock for the last 5+ years. Pytorch/torch is one of the most used ML libraries out there. Many torch-related products are named in this way: torchvision, torchaudio, torch elastic, torchrun etc

        Dude, wth with this hate. I commented on what I thought about the title. I didn't say anything about the work. How do you get so insulted?? You basically proved that you are wrong by yourself. Torchvision is a package for computer vision. Torch audio is a package for audio processing. Based on this history, you expect Torchcomms to be a communication (wireless) package. Torchbalancer could be a better name but what do I know, right? This is only an opinion. If it's going to make you happy for the day, feel free to downvote. I wasn't living under a rock, but you just weren’t paying attention to what was right in front of you.

        Another example, https://pypi.org/project/scikit-commpy/

          I'm sorry, I was hoping my msg would come across more humorous than insulting.

          Pytorch-related articles do surface to the frontpage pretty often, but I might just be more attuned to notice this stuff.
