In May 2025, Alessandro Nicastro developed a new Vulkan 'where' operation for the pytorch/executorch repository, enabling conditional tensor selection within the Vulkan backend. This feature allows models to execute conditional data paths directly on Vulkan devices, broadening support for mobile and embedded environments. Alessandro integrated the operation by extending the compute graph and focusing on backend performance, leveraging C++, GLSL, and GPU programming expertise. The work addressed the need for more flexible model logic and complex workflows in Vulkan, enhancing hardware coverage and deployment options. No major bugs were fixed during this period, reflecting a focus on feature development depth.
