题意: 由 getattr
引起的有趣的 bug
问题背景:
I try to train 8 CNN models with the same structures simultaneously. After training a model on a batch, I need to synchronize the weights of the feature extraction layers in other 7 models.
我尝试同时训练8个具有相同结构的卷积神经网络(CNN)模型。在对一个批次的数据训练一个模型后,我需要同步其他7个模型中特征提取层的权重。
This is the model: 这是模型
python
class GNet(nn.Module):
def __init__(self, dim_output, dropout=0.5):
super(GNet, self).__init__()
self.out_dim = dim_output
# Load the pretrained AlexNet model
alexnet = models.alexnet(pretrained=True)
self.pre_filtering = nn.Sequential(
alexnet.features[:4]
)
# Set requires_grad to False for all parameters in the pre_filtering network
for param in self.pre_filtering.parameters():
param.requires_grad = False
# construct the feature extractor
# every intermediate feature will be fed to the feature extractor
# res: 25 x 25
self.feat_ex1 = nn.Conv2d(192, 128, kernel_size=3, stride=1)
# res: 25 x 25
self.feat_ex2 = nn.Sequential(
nn.BatchNorm2d(128),
nn.Dropout(p=dropout),
nn.Conv2d(128, 128, kernel_size=3, stride=1, padding=1)
)
# res: 25 x 25
self.feat_ex3 = nn.Sequential(
nn.BatchNorm2d(128),
nn.Dropout(p=dropout),
nn.Conv2d(128, 128, kernel_size=3, stride=1, padding=1)
)
# res: 13 x 13
self.feat_ex4 = nn.Sequential(
nn.MaxPool2d(kernel_size=3, stride=2, padding=1),
nn.BatchNorm2d(128),
nn.Dropout(p=dropout),
nn.Conv2d(128, 128, kernel_size=3, stride=1, padding=1)
)
# res: 13 x 13
self.feat_ex5 = nn.Sequential(
nn.BatchNorm2d(128),
nn.Dropout(p=dropout),
nn.Conv2d(128, 128, kernel_size=3, stride=1, padding=1)
)
# res: 13 x 13
self.feat_ex6 = nn.Sequential(
nn.BatchNorm2d(128),
nn.Dropout(p=dropout),
nn.Conv2d(128, 128, kernel_size=3, stride=1, padding=1)
)
# res: 13 x 13
self.feat_ex7 = nn.Sequential(
nn.BatchNorm2d(128),
nn.Dropout(p=dropout),
nn.Conv2d(128, 64, kernel_size=3, stride=1, padding=1)
)
# define the flexible pooling field of each layer
# use a full convolution layer here to perform flexible pooling
self.fpf13 = nn.Conv2d(in_channels=448, out_channels=448, kernel_size=13, groups=448)
self.fpf25 = nn.Conv2d(in_channels=384, out_channels=384, kernel_size=25, groups=384)
self.linears = {}
for i in range(self.out_dim):
self.linears[f'linear_{i+1}'] = nn.Linear(832, 1)
self.LogTanh = LogTanh()
self.flatten = nn.Flatten()
And this is the function to synchronize the weights:
这是同步权重的函数:
python
def sync_weights(models, current_sub, sync_seqs):
for sub in range(1, 9):
if sub != current_sub:
# Synchronize the specified layers
with torch.no_grad():
for seq_name in sync_seqs:
reference_layer = getattr(models[current_sub], seq_name)[2]
layer = getattr(models[sub], seq_name)[2]
layer.weight.data = reference_layer.weight.data.clone()
if layer.bias is not None:
layer.bias.data = reference_layer.bias.data.clone()
then an error is raised: 然后出现了一个错误:
python
'Conv2d' object is not iterable
which means the getattr() returns a Conv2D object. But if I remove [2]:
意思是 getattr()
函数返回了一个 Conv2D
对象。但是,如果我移除了 [2]
python
def sync_weights(models, current_sub, sync_seqs):
for sub in range(1, 9):
if sub != current_sub:
# Synchronize the specified layers
with torch.no_grad():
for seq_name in sync_seqs:
reference_layer = getattr(models[current_sub], seq_name)
layer = getattr(models[sub], seq_name)
layer.weight.data = reference_layer.weight.data.clone()
if layer.bias is not None:
layer.bias.data = reference_layer.bias.data.clone()
I get another error: 我得到了另一个错误
python
'Sequential' object has no attribute 'weight'
which means the getattr() returns a Sequential. But previously it returns a Conv2D object. Does anyone know anything about this? For your information, the sync_seqs parameter passed in sync_weights is:
意思是 getattr()
现在返回的是一个 Sequential
模型,但之前它返回的是一个 Conv2D
对象。有人知道这是怎么回事吗?为了提供更多信息,sync_weights
函数中传入的 sync_seqs
参数是:
sync_seqs = [
'feat_ex1',
'feat_ex2',
'feat_ex3',
'feat_ex4',
'feat_ex5',
'feat_ex6',
'feat_ex7'
]
问题解决:
In both instances, getattr
is returning a Sequential
, which in turn contains a bunch of objects. In the second case, you're directly assigning that Sequential
to a variable, so reference_layer
ends up containing a Sequential
.
在这两种情况下,getattr
都返回了一个 Sequential
对象,而这个 Sequential
对象又包含了一系列的其他对象。在第二种情况下,你直接将这个 Sequential
对象赋值给了一个变量,因此 reference_layer
最终包含了一个 Sequential
对象。
In the first case, however, you're not doing that direct assignemnt. You're taking the Sequential
object and then indexing it with [2]
. That means reference_layer
contains the third item in the Sequential
, which is a Conv2d
object.
在第一种情况下,你没有进行直接的赋值。你是先获取了 Sequential
对象,然后使用 [2]
对其进行索引。这意味着 reference_layer
包含的是 Sequential
中的第三个项目,这个项目是一个 Conv2D
对象。
Take a more simple example. Suppose I had a ListContainer
class that did nothing except hold a list. I could then recreate your example as follows, with test1
corresponding to your first test case and vice versa:
以一个更简单的例子来说明。假设我有一个 ListContainer
类,它唯一的作用就是持有一个列表。然后我可以按照以下方式重现你的例子,其中 test1
对应你的第一个测试用例,反之亦然:
python
class ListContainer:
def __init__(self, list_items):
self.list_items = list_items
letters = ["a", "b", "c"]
container = ListContainer(letters)
test1 = getattr(container, "list_items")[0]
test2 = getattr(container, "list_items")
print(type(test1)) # <class 'str'>
print(type(test2)) # <class 'list'>
In both tests, getattr
itself is returning a list - but in the second, we're doing something with that list after we get it, so test2 ends up being a string instead.
在两次测试中,getattr
本身都返回了一个列表------但在第二次测试中,我们在获取到这个列表之后对它进行了某种操作,所以 test2
最终变成了一个字符串而不是列表。
