Dear TSC members,
Please find below the release plan for our upcoming release 0.2.0-alpha. Starting next release we will present the release planning to TSC at the beginning of the month for extensive review.
Please also note that this is not the final releasenote, which will contain additional information on bugfixes and so forth.
Feel free to ask any questions or provide any feedback through the list !

・ Data processing, augmentation, and save format
* Support multi-process of GeneratorDataset/PyFunc for high performance * Support variable batchsize * Support new Dataset operators, such as filter,skip,take,TextLineDataset
Other Hardware Support
* GPU platform
* Support device memory swap in/out during training process. * Quantization aware training (including training and inference). * Add GPU kernels for Bert.
* CPU platform
* Support for windows 10 OS. GraphEngine
* Provides a common graph-level option, and multiple requirements can also share this mechanism in the future. * Improve graph compilation performance. * Optimize memory allocation. * Optimize serveral operators e.g., Slice, StridedSlice, ScatterMax etc.
MindArmour
* Add a white-box attack method: M-DI2-FGSM(PR14https://gitee.com/mindspore/mindarmour/pulls/14). * Add three neuron coverage metrics: KMNCov, NBCov, SNACov(PR12https://gitee.com/mindspore/mindarmour/pulls/12). * Add a coverage-guided fuzzing test framework for deep neural networks(PR13https://gitee.com/mindspore/mindarmour/pulls/13). * Update the MNIST Lenet5 example. * Remove some duplicate code.
MindInsight
* Parameter distribution graph (Histogram). Now you can use HistogramSummaryhttps://www.mindspore.cn/api/zh-CN/master/api/python/mindspore/mindspore.ops.operations.html#mindspore.ops.operations.HistogramSummary and MindInsight to record and visualize distribution info of tensors. See our tutorialhttps://www.mindspore.cn/tutorial/zh-CN/master/advanced_use/visualization_tutorials.html for details. * Lineage support Custom information * GPU support * Model and dataset tracking linkage support
