Summary

Lightning Flash is still in the early stages of development and will continue to evolve rapidly. Flash is also a community project where model code can be contributed by data science practitioners, and so the quality of code may vary from architecture to architecture. We advise you to follow due diligence when it comes to the source of any model code, as it may not always be from the PyTorch Lightning team; try to avoid bugs.

However, Flash is extremely useful, whether you are a beginner in DL or an advanced practitioner looking to establish a baseline for a new project. The first point of order is to start with the latest and greatest architecture in the field. It helps get you off the ground easily with your dataset and sets the baseline for the different algorithms of your use case. Flash, with its out-of-the-box capability for state-of-the-art DL architectures, is not just a timesaver but a big productivity booster.

Vision neural networks are widely used and are...
