Last I looked, rtorch wasn't available in conda-forge. I see that https://github.com/conda-forge/r-torch-feedstock is available now, so perhaps that's unblocked.

I also see that r-sits includes it as a dependency on conda-forge now. I'll see if I can update https://github.com/Microsoft/planetary-computer-containers to include it.

Dear Tom and Ritvik

We use the R version of torch in MPC for our work without any problems. Please follow the installation procedures described in https://e-sensing.github.io/sitsbook/setup.html.

In any case, we suggest that you use an Ubuntu virtual machine. There are a number of limitation of Windows platforms for the R environment, most notably linked to parallelisation.

Please use an Ubuntu VM, install R and RStudio, and then install “sits” from CRAN in the usual way:

install.packages(“sits”, dependencies = TRUE).

This should install everything, including “torch”. After installation is finished, please run

torch::install_torch()

In case of problems, please contact us.

Best Gilberto
