Hi, can you check if you have a CUDA-supported installation of PyTorch? `torch.cuda.is_available` is sufficient

Thanks @martinkim0 for your reply. Running `torch.cuda.is_available` returned `False`. Then I followed the instruction posted [here](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57238344/i-have-a-gpu-and-cuda-installed-in-windows-10-but-pytorchs-torch-cuda-is-availa) to resolve the issue. Now it is running fine with making use of GPU.
