OptimWrapper

class mmengine.optim.OptimWrapper(optimizer, accumulative_counts=1, clip_grad=None)[源代码]

Optimizer wrapper provides a common interface for updating parameters.

Optimizer wrapper provides a unified interface for single precision training and automatic mixed precision training with different hardware. OptimWrapper encapsulates optimizer to provide simplified interfaces for commonly used training techniques such as gradient accumulative and grad clips. OptimWrapper implements the basic logic of gradient accumulation and gradient clipping based on torch.optim.Optimizer. The subclasses only need to override some methods to implement the mixed precision training. See more information in AmpOptimWrapper.

参数:
  • optimizer (Optimizer) – Optimizer used to update model parameters.

  • accumulative_counts (int) – The number of iterations to accumulate gradients. The parameters will be updated per accumulative_counts.

  • clip_grad (dict, optional) –

    If clip_grad is not None, it will be the arguments of torch.nn.utils.clip_grad_norm_() or torch.nn.utils.clip_grad_value_(). clip_grad should be a dict, and the keys could be set as follows:

    If the key type is not set, or type is “norm”, the accepted keys are as follows:

    • max_norm (float or int): Max norm of the gradients.

    • norm_type (float or int): Type of the used p-norm. Can be 'inf' for infinity norm.

    • error_if_nonfinite (bool): If True, an error is thrown if the total norm of the gradients from parameters is nan, inf, or -inf. Defaults to False (will switch to True in the future)

    If the key type is set to “value”, the accepted keys are as follows:

    • clip_value (float or int): maximum allowed value of the gradients. The gradients are clipped in the range (-clip_value, +clip_value).

备注

If accumulative_counts is larger than 1, perform update_params() under the context of optim_context could avoid unnecessary gradient synchronization.

备注

If you use IterBasedRunner and enable gradient accumulation, the original max_iters should be multiplied by accumulative_counts.

备注

The subclass should ensure that once update_params() is called, _inner_count += 1 is automatically performed.

backward(loss, **kwargs)[源代码]

Perform gradient back propagation.

Provide unified backward interface compatible with automatic mixed precision training. Subclass can overload this method to implement the required logic. For example, torch.cuda.amp require some extra operation on GradScaler during backward process.

备注

If subclasses inherit from OptimWrapper override backward, _inner_count +=1 must be implemented.

参数:
返回类型:

None

initialize_count_status(model, init_counts, max_counts)[源代码]

Initialize gradient accumulation related attributes.

OptimWrapper can be used without calling initialize_iter_status. However, Consider the case of len( dataloader) == 10, and the accumulative_iter == 3. Since 10 is not divisible by 3, the last iteration will not trigger optimizer.step(), resulting in one less parameter updating.

参数:
  • model (nn.Module) – Training model

  • init_counts (int) – The initial value of the inner count.

  • max_counts (int) – The maximum value of the inner count.

返回类型:

None

property inner_count

Get the number of updating parameters of optimizer wrapper.

optim_context(model)[源代码]

A Context for gradient accumulation and automatic mix precision training.

If subclasses need to enable the context for mix precision training, e.g., :class:`AmpOptimWrapper, the corresponding context should be enabled in optim_context. Since OptimWrapper uses default fp32 training, optim_context will only enable the context for blocking the unnecessary gradient synchronization during gradient accumulation

If model is an instance with no_sync method (which means blocking the gradient synchronization) and self._accumulative_counts != 1. The model will not automatically synchronize gradients if cur_iter is divisible by self._accumulative_counts. Otherwise, this method will enable an empty context.

参数:

model (nn.Module) – The training model.

scale_loss(loss)[源代码]

Get scaled loss according to _accumulative_counts, _inner_count and max_counts.

参数:

loss (torch.Tensor) – Original loss calculated by model.

返回:

Scaled loss.

返回类型:

loss (torch.Tensor)

should_sync()[源代码]

Decide whether the automatic gradient synchronization should be allowed at the current iteration.

It takes effect when gradient accumulation is used to skip synchronization at the iterations where the parameter is not updated.

Since should_sync is called by optim_context(), and it is called before backward() which means self._inner_count += 1 has not happened yet. Therefore, self._inner_count += 1 should be performed manually here.

返回:

Whether to block the automatic gradient synchronization.

返回类型:

bool

should_update()[源代码]

Decide whether the parameters should be updated at the current iteration.

Called by update_params() and check whether the optimizer wrapper should update parameters at current iteration.

返回:

Whether to update parameters.

返回类型:

bool

step(**kwargs)[源代码]

A wrapper of Optimizer.step.

Provide unified step interface compatible with automatic mixed precision training. Subclass can overload this method to implement the required logic. For example, torch.cuda.amp require some extra operation on GradScaler during step process.

Clip grad if clip_grad_kwargs is not None, and then update parameters.

参数:

kwargs – Keyword arguments passed to torch.optim.Optimizer.step().

返回类型:

None

update_params(loss, step_kwargs=None, zero_kwargs=None)[源代码]

Update parameters in optimizer.

参数:
  • loss (torch.Tensor) – A tensor for back propagation.

  • step_kwargs (dict) – Arguments for optimizer.step. Defaults to None. New in version v0.4.0.

  • zero_kwargs (dict) – Arguments for optimizer.zero_grad. Defaults to None. New in version v0.4.0.

返回类型:

None

zero_grad(**kwargs)[源代码]

A wrapper of Optimizer.zero_grad.

Provide unified zero_grad interface compatible with automatic mixed precision training. Subclass can overload this method to implement the required logic.

参数:

kwargs – Keyword arguments passed to torch.optim.Optimizer.zero_grad().

返回类型:

None
