distributed training for CrossPoint

[auniquesun]

@MohamedAfham I have succefully integrated the PyTorch DistributedDataParallel mechanism into your codebase, which accelerates the training procedure remarkbly and achieves a similar performance with the paper reported.

Later on I want to pull a request to your repository, thank you.

Thank you for performing Distributed parallel mechanism and verifying the reported results.

I would love to merge the code once you do the pull request.
