Convert a Tensor to a Numpy Array or List in PyTorch

Tips

There are multiple ways to convert a Tensor to a numpy array in PyTorch. First, you can call the method Tensor.numpy.

my_tensor.numpy()

Second, you can use the function numpy.array.

import numpy as np
np.array(my_tensor)

It is suggested that you use the function numpy.array to convert a Tensor to a numpy array. The reason is that numpy.array is more generic. You can also use it to convert other objects (e.g., PIL.Image) to numpy arrays while those objects might not have a method named numpy
