register_backward_hook(hook: Callable[[Module, Union[Tuple[torch.Tensor, ...], torch.Tensor], Union[Tuple[torch.Tensor, ...], torch.Tensor]], Union[None, torch.Tensor]]) → torch.utils.hooks.RemovableHandle

Registers a backward hook on the module.

Warning

The current implementation will not have the presented behavior for complex Module that perform many operations. In some failure cases, grad_input and grad_output will only contain the gradients for a subset of the inputs and outputs. For such Module, you should use torch.Tensor.register_hook() directly on a specific input or output to get the required gradients.

The hook will be called every time the gradients with respect to module inputs are computed. The hook should have the following signature:

hook(module, grad_input, grad_output) -> Tensor or None

The grad_input and grad_output may be tuples if the module has multiple inputs or outputs. The hook should not modify its arguments, but it can optionally return a new gradient with respect to input that will be used in place of grad_input in subsequent computations. grad_input will only correspond to the inputs given as positional arguments.

Returns

a handle that can be used to remove the added hook by calling handle.remove()

Return type

torch.utils.hooks.RemovableHandle

register_buffer(name: str, tensor: Optional[torch.Tensor], persistent: bool = True) → None

Adds a buffer to the module.

This is typically used to register a buffer that should not to be considered a model parameter. For example, BatchNorm’s running_mean is not a parameter, but is part of the module’s state. Buffers, by default, are persistent and will be saved alongside parameters. This behavior can be changed by setting persistent to False. The only difference between a persistent buffer and a non-persistent buffer is that the latter will not be a part of this module’s state_dict.

Buffers can be accessed as attributes using given names.

Parameters

• name (string) – name of the buffer. The buffer can be accessed from this module using the given name

• tensor (Tensor) – buffer to be registered.

• persistent (bool) – whether the buffer is part of this module’s state_dict.

Example:

>>> self.register_buffer('running_mean', torch.zeros(num_features))

register_forward_hook(hook: Callable[[...], None]) → torch.utils.hooks.RemovableHandle

Registers a forward hook on the module.

The hook will be called every time after forward() has computed an output. It should have the following signature:

hook(module, input, output) -> None or modified output

The input contains only the positional arguments given to the module. Keyword arguments won’t be passed to the hooks and only to the forward. The hook can modify the output. It can modify the input inplace but it will not have effect on forward since this is called after forward() is called.

Returns

a handle that can be used to remove the added hook by calling handle.remove()

Return type

torch.utils.hooks.RemovableHandle

register_forward_pre_hook(hook: Callable[[...], None]) → torch.utils.hooks.RemovableHandle

Registers a forward pre-hook on the module.

The hook will be called every time before forward() is invoked. It should have the following signature:

hook(module, input) -> None or modified input

The input contains only the positional arguments given to the module. Keyword arguments won’t be passed to the hooks and only to the forward. The hook can modify the input. User can either return a tuple or a single modified value in the hook. We will wrap the value into a tuple if a single value is returned(unless that value is already a tuple).

Returns

a handle that can be used to remove the added hook by calling handle.remove()

Return type

torch.utils.hooks.RemovableHandle

register_parameter(name: str, param: Optional[torch.nn.parameter.Parameter]) → None

Adds a parameter to the module.

The parameter can be accessed as an attribute using given name.

Parameters

• name (string) – name of the parameter. The parameter can be accessed from this module using the given name

• param (Parameter) – parameter to be added to the module.

requires_grad_(requires_grad: bool = True) → T

Change if autograd should record operations on parameters in this module.

This method sets the parameters’ requires_grad attributes in-place.

This method is helpful for freezing part of the module for finetuning or training parts of a model individually (e.g., GAN training).

Parameters

requires_grad (bool) – whether autograd should record operations on parameters in this module. Default: True.

Returns

self

Return type

Module

save(f, _extra_files=ExtraFilesMap{})

See torch.jit.save for details.

state_dict(destination=None, prefix='', keep_vars=False)

Returns a dictionary containing a whole state of the module.

Both parameters and persistent buffers (e.g. running averages) are included. Keys are corresponding parameter and buffer names.

Returns

a dictionary containing a whole state of the module

Return type

dict

Example:

>>> module.state_dict().keys()
['bias', 'weight']

to(*args, **kwargs)

Moves and/or casts the parameters and buffers.

This can be called as

to(device=None, dtype=None, non_blocking=False)

to(dtype, non_blocking=False)

to(tensor, non_blocking=False)

to(memory_format=torch.channels_last)

Its signature is similar to torch.Tensor.to(), but only accepts floating point desired dtype s. In addition, this method will only cast the floating point parameters and buffers to dtype (if given). The integral parameters and buffers will be moved device, if that is given, but with dtypes unchanged. When non_blocking is set, it tries to convert/move asynchronously with respect to the host if possible, e.g., moving CPU Tensors with pinned memory to CUDA devices.

See below for examples.

Note

This method modifies the module in-place.

Parameters

• device (torch.device) – the desired device of the parameters and buffers in this module

• dtype (torch.dtype) – the desired floating point type of the floating point parameters and buffers in this module

• tensor (torch.Tensor) – Tensor whose dtype and device are the desired dtype and device for all parameters and buffers in this module

• memory_format (torch.memory_format) – the desired memory format for 4D parameters and buffers in this module (keyword only argument)

Returns

self

Return type
