+GPU Acceleration
+================
+
+``pyprep`` includes optional PyTorch-based acceleration for validated
+bad-channel deviation and correlation assessments. Install the optional dependency with
+``pip``:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+   python -m pip install "pyprep[gpu]"
+
+The regular ``python -m pip install pyprep`` installation remains sufficient
+for CPU preprocessing. The default ``backend="cpu"`` preserves PyPREP's
+established NumPy/SciPy numerical behavior. With the GPU extra, pass
+``backend="auto", device="auto"`` to select CUDA, Apple Silicon MPS, Intel XPU,
+Habana HPU, or CPU in that order. Unsupported operations automatically rerun
+with the CPU implementation:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+   import mne
+   from pyprep.prep_pipeline import PrepPipeline
+
+   raw = mne.io.read_raw_edf("sample.edf", preload=True)
+   montage = mne.channels.make_standard_montage("standard_1005")
+   raw.set_montage(montage)
+
+   prep_params = {
+       "ref_chs": "eeg",
+       "reref_chs": "eeg",
+       "line_freqs": [],
+   }
+   prep = PrepPipeline(raw, prep_params, montage, backend="auto", device="auto")
+   prep.fit()
+
+To pin a supported device explicitly, use one of
+``device="cuda"`` (NVIDIA CUDA or AMD ROCm builds of PyTorch), ``"mps"``
+(Apple Silicon), ``"xpu"`` (Intel), ``"hpu"`` (Habana), or ``"cpu"``.
+``torch.device`` objects are accepted as well. For example:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+   prep = PrepPipeline(raw, prep_params, montage, backend="auto", device="cuda")
+
+Use ``backend="cpu"`` to force the established NumPy/SciPy implementation.
+This is the setting for strict numerical reproducibility with prior PyPREP
+releases. Optional accelerator results are regression-tested against the CPU
+implementation, but floating-point values can differ across hardware; do not
+use an accelerator when bit-for-bit reproducibility is required.

 ~~~~~~~~~
-- Nothing yet
+- Added an optional, compatibility-first PyTorch acceleration backend
+  (:mod:`pyprep.gpu`) for validated multi-channel windowed correlation and
+  deviation metrics. ``backend="cpu"`` remains the default; ``backend="auto"``
+  selects CUDA, Apple Silicon MPS, Google TPU (torch_xla), Intel XPU, Habana HPU, then CPU and retries
+  unsupported operations with the original CPU implementation, by `Kanav Dhanda`_
