LazyTensor -> LinearOperator

Open gpleiss opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

The LazyTensor functionality is moving to a separate repository (GitHub.com/cornellius-gp/linear_operator).

This PR deprecates LazyTensor and instead uses the LinearOperator implementation.

(Note that this PR does not change any GPyTorch code; other than removing gpytorch/lazy/*_lazy_tensor.py and all other related files. A separate PR will make changes to the code that rename all *LazyTensor references and utilize the torch_function functionality of LinearOperator).

New requirements

Python 3.8 (was 3.7)
Torch 1.11 (was 1.9/1.10)

The awesomeness of this is totally awesome.

@Balandat I think requiring Python 3.8 makes a lot of sense.

This is no longer a WIP PR, but let's not merge it until we merge #2037 (and put out a 1.7 release).
