I want to write an C++ extension for the above code. I checked the C++ APIs in aten/src/ATen/core/Tensor.h. I found this API
Tensor slice(int64_t dim=0, int64_t start=0, int64_t end=9223372036854775807, int64_t step=1) const;
which allows me to do slicing. But the problem is it only takes int64_t as input but x0, y0, x1 and y1 are CUDA tensors. I just wonder how PyTorch implements the Python version of slicing (i.e. data[:, x0:x1, y0:y1]). I tried searching the source code but I couldn’t that.
How should I implement the C++ extension for the above code?
