Learning PyTorch with Examples¶
读官方文档的例子的一些记录
Warm-Up： Numpy¶
训练一个三阶多项式，用它去预测\(y = \sin x\)，最小化Euclidean distance
import numpy as np;
import math
#创建随机输入输出的数据
x = np.linspace(-math.pi, math.pi, 2000)
y = np.sin(x)
# 先随机生成对应权重
a = np.random.randn()
b = np.random.randn()
c = np.random.randn()
d = np.random.randn()
# 定义学习率
learning_rate = 1e-6
for t in range(2000):
# 前向传播，这里就是非常简单地计算y
y_pred = a + b * x + c * x ** 2 + d * x ** 3
# 计算损失函数
loss = np.square(y_pred - y).sum()
if t % 100 == 99:
print(t, loss)
# 反向传播过程：根据损失函数计算梯度
grad_y_pred = 2.0 * (y_pred - y)
grad_a = grad_y_pred.sum()
grad_b = (grad_y_pred * x).sum()
grad_c = (grad_y_pred * x ** 2).sum()
grad_d = (grad_y_pred * x ** 3).sum()
# 更新参数权重
a -= learning_rate * grad_a
b -= learning_rate * grad_b
c -= learning_rate * grad_c
d -= learning_rate * grad_d
print(f'Result: y = {a} + {b} x + {c} x^2 + {d} x^3')
PyTorch: Tensors¶
我们可以把上面的代码改成用 torch 中的 tensor 实现
import torch
import math
dtype = torch.float
device = torch.device("cpu")
# device = torch.device("cuda:0") # Uncomment this to run on GPU
# Create random input and output data
x = torch.linspace(-math.pi, math.pi, 2000, device=device, dtype=dtype)
y = torch.sin(x)
# Randomly initialize weights
a = torch.randn((), device=device, dtype=dtype)
b = torch.randn((), device=device, dtype=dtype)
c = torch.randn((), device=device, dtype=dtype)
d = torch.randn((), device=device, dtype=dtype)
learning_rate = 1e-6
for t in range(2000):
# Forward pass: compute predicted y
y_pred = a + b * x + c * x ** 2 + d * x ** 3
# Compute and print loss
loss = (y_pred - y).pow(2).sum().item()
if t % 100 == 99:
print(t, loss)
# Backprop to compute gradients of a, b, c, d with respect to loss
grad_y_pred = 2.0 * (y_pred - y)
grad_a = grad_y_pred.sum()
grad_b = (grad_y_pred * x).sum()
grad_c = (grad_y_pred * x ** 2).sum()
grad_d = (grad_y_pred * x ** 3).sum()
# Update weights using gradient descent
a -= learning_rate * grad_a
b -= learning_rate * grad_b
c -= learning_rate * grad_c
d -= learning_rate * grad_d
print(f'Result: y = {a.item()} + {b.item()} x + {c.item()} x^2 + {d.item()} x^3')
最大的区别在于PyTorch中的Tensor可以选择是在CPU还是GPU中进行计算。
PyTorch: Tensors and Autogard¶
还是之前那个任务，这次用 Autograd 实现，文档中的注释已经写的非常明白了。有这么几个有意思的地方。
- 假设\(x\)是一个 tensor，那么需要
x.requires_grad = True才能用自动求导 - 直接调用
loss.backward()就能做到反向传播计算梯度 - 但是参数还要手动更新，更新权重之后需要手动将梯度置为\(0\)
import torch
import math
dtype = torch.float
device = torch.device("cpu")
# device = torch.device("cuda:0") # Uncomment this to run on GPU
# Create Tensors to hold input and outputs.
# By default, requires_grad=False, which indicates that we do not need to
# compute gradients with respect to these Tensors during the backward pass.
x = torch.linspace(-math.pi, math.pi, 2000, device=device, dtype=dtype)
y = torch.sin(x)
# Create random Tensors for weights. For a third order polynomial, we need
# 4 weights: y = a + b x + c x^2 + d x^3
# Setting requires_grad=True indicates that we want to compute gradients with
# respect to these Tensors during the backward pass.
a = torch.randn((), device=device, dtype=dtype, requires_grad=True)
b = torch.randn((), device=device, dtype=dtype, requires_grad=True)
c = torch.randn((), device=device, dtype=dtype, requires_grad=True)
d = torch.randn((), device=device, dtype=dtype, requires_grad=True)
learning_rate = 1e-6
for t in range(2000):
# Forward pass: compute predicted y using operations on Tensors.
y_pred = a + b * x + c * x ** 2 + d * x ** 3
# Compute and print loss using operations on Tensors.
# Now loss is a Tensor of shape (1,)
# loss.item() gets the scalar value held in the loss.
loss = (y_pred - y).pow(2).sum()
if t % 100 == 99:
print(t, loss.item())
# Use autograd to compute the backward pass. This call will compute the
# gradient of loss with respect to all Tensors with requires_grad=True.
# After this call a.grad, b.grad. c.grad and d.grad will be Tensors holding
# the gradient of the loss with respect to a, b, c, d respectively.
loss.backward()
# Manually update weights using gradient descent. Wrap in torch.no_grad()
# because weights have requires_grad=True, but we don't need to track this
# in autograd.
with torch.no_grad():
a -= learning_rate * a.grad
b -= learning_rate * b.grad
c -= learning_rate * c.grad
d -= learning_rate * d.grad
# Manually zero the gradients after updating weights
a.grad = None
b.grad = None
c.grad = None
d.grad = None
print(f'Result: y = {a.item()} + {b.item()} x + {c.item()} x^2 + {d.item()} x^3')
PyTorch: Defining new Autograd Functions¶
还是之前的那个任务，我们这次将多项式写成\(y = a + bP_3(c + dx)\)，这里的\(P_3\)是 Legendre 多项式，\(P_3 = \frac{1}{2} (5 x^3 -3 x)\)。
在这里写一个东西用于Autograd，我们可以很方便计算\(P'_3(x)\)，这都是很简单的。直接用\(P'_3(x)\)就可以计算梯度，减少了计算量。
我们需要写一个继承自torch.autograd.Function的类并实现forward和backward。再用到这个函数的时候需要用Function.apply方法把函数整出来。具体见官方文档中的实例代码。
import torch
import math
class LegendrePolynomial3(torch.autograd.Function):
"""
We can implement our own custom autograd Functions by subclassing
torch.autograd.Function and implementing the forward and backward passes
which operate on Tensors.
"""
@staticmethod
def forward(ctx, input):
"""
In the forward pass we receive a Tensor containing the input and return
a Tensor containing the output. ctx is a context object that can be used
to stash information for backward computation. You can cache arbitrary
objects for use in the backward pass using the ctx.save_for_backward method.
"""
ctx.save_for_backward(input)
return 0.5 * (5 * input ** 3 - 3 * input)
@staticmethod
def backward(ctx, grad_output):
"""
In the backward pass we receive a Tensor containing the gradient of the loss
with respect to the output, and we need to compute the gradient of the loss
with respect to the input.
"""
input, = ctx.saved_tensors
return grad_output * 1.5 * (5 * input ** 2 - 1)
dtype = torch.float
device = torch.device("cpu")
# device = torch.device("cuda:0") # Uncomment this to run on GPU
# Create Tensors to hold input and outputs.
# By default, requires_grad=False, which indicates that we do not need to
# compute gradients with respect to these Tensors during the backward pass.
x = torch.linspace(-math.pi, math.pi, 2000, device=device, dtype=dtype)
y = torch.sin(x)
# Create random Tensors for weights. For this example, we need
# 4 weights: y = a + b * P3(c + d * x), these weights need to be initialized
# not too far from the correct result to ensure convergence.
# Setting requires_grad=True indicates that we want to compute gradients with
# respect to these Tensors during the backward pass.
a = torch.full((), 0.0, device=device, dtype=dtype, requires_grad=True)
b = torch.full((), -1.0, device=device, dtype=dtype, requires_grad=True)
c = torch.full((), 0.0, device=device, dtype=dtype, requires_grad=True)
d = torch.full((), 0.3, device=device, dtype=dtype, requires_grad=True)
learning_rate = 5e-6
for t in range(2000):
# To apply our Function, we use Function.apply method. We alias this as 'P3'.
P3 = LegendrePolynomial3.apply
# Forward pass: compute predicted y using operations; we compute
# P3 using our custom autograd operation.
y_pred = a + b * P3(c + d * x)
# Compute and print loss
loss = (y_pred - y).pow(2).sum()
if t % 100 == 99:
print(t, loss.item())
# Use autograd to compute the backward pass.
loss.backward()
# Update weights using gradient descent
with torch.no_grad():
a -= learning_rate * a.grad
b -= learning_rate * b.grad
c -= learning_rate * c.grad
d -= learning_rate * d.grad
# Manually zero the gradients after updating weights
a.grad = None
b.grad = None
c.grad = None
d.grad = None
print(f'Result: y = {a.item()} + {b.item()} * P3({c.item()} + {d.item()} x)')
PyTorch:nn¶
还是之前的那个任务，这次我们用神经网络来实现。
我们先把输入裂开，整成\(x\), \(x^2\), \(x^3\)，三个输入，然后扔到一个只有一个线性层的神经网络中，损失函数选\(MSE\)，然后开始整。见示例代码。
- 它这个线性层还会自己带着一个偏差。
import torch
import math
# Create Tensors to hold input and outputs.
x = torch.linspace(-math.pi, math.pi, 2000)
y = torch.sin(x)
# For this example, the output y is a linear function of (x, x^2, x^3), so
# we can consider it as a linear layer neural network. Let's prepare the
# tensor (x, x^2, x^3).
p = torch.tensor([1, 2, 3])
xx = x.unsqueeze(-1).pow(p)
# In the above code, x.unsqueeze(-1) has shape (2000, 1), and p has shape
# (3,), for this case, broadcasting semantics will apply to obtain a tensor
# of shape (2000, 3)
# Use the nn package to define our model as a sequence of layers. nn.Sequential
# is a Module which contains other Modules, and applies them in sequence to
# produce its output. The Linear Module computes output from input using a
# linear function, and holds internal Tensors for its weight and bias.
# The Flatten layer flatens the output of the linear layer to a 1D tensor,
# to match the shape of `y`.
model = torch.nn.Sequential(
torch.nn.Linear(3, 1),
torch.nn.Flatten(0, 1)
)
# The nn package also contains definitions of popular loss functions; in this
# case we will use Mean Squared Error (MSE) as our loss function.
loss_fn = torch.nn.MSELoss(reduction='sum')
learning_rate = 1e-6
for t in range(2000):
# Forward pass: compute predicted y by passing x to the model. Module objects
# override the __call__ operator so you can call them like functions. When
# doing so you pass a Tensor of input data to the Module and it produces
# a Tensor of output data.
y_pred = model(xx)
# Compute and print loss. We pass Tensors containing the predicted and true
# values of y, and the loss function returns a Tensor containing the
# loss.
loss = loss_fn(y_pred, y)
if t % 100 == 99:
print(t, loss.item())
# Zero the gradients before running the backward pass.
model.zero_grad()
# Backward pass: compute gradient of the loss with respect to all the learnable
# parameters of the model. Internally, the parameters of each Module are stored
# in Tensors with requires_grad=True, so this call will compute gradients for
# all learnable parameters in the model.
loss.backward()
# Update the weights using gradient descent. Each parameter is a Tensor, so
# we can access its gradients like we did before.
with torch.no_grad():
for param in model.parameters():
param -= learning_rate * param.grad
# You can access the first layer of `model` like accessing the first item of a list
linear_layer = model[0]
# For linear layer, its parameters are stored as `weight` and `bias`.
print(f'Result: y = {linear_layer.bias.item()} + {linear_layer.weight[:, 0].item()} x + {linear_layer.weight[:, 1].item()} x^2 + {linear_layer.weight[:, 2].item()} x^3')
PyTorch：Optimization¶
还是那个任务，加一个Optimizer。常见的SGD+momentum, RMSProp, Adam都可以在torch.optim中找到。
optimizer = torch.optim.RMSprop(model.parameters(), lr=learning_rate)
for t in range(2000):
# Forward pass: compute predicted y by passing x to the model.
y_pred = model(xx)
# Compute and print loss.
loss = loss_fn(y_pred, y)
if t % 100 == 99:
print(t, loss.item())
optimizer.zero_grad()
loss.backward()
optimizer.step()
PyTorch: Custom nn Modules¶
有时我们需要整一个比现有模型更复杂的模型。在这时我们可以通过继承nn.Module并定义一个forward来接受 Tensor 并输出 Tensor。下面的代码就定义了一个三次多项式模型。
class Polynomial3(torch.nn.Module):
def __init__(self):
super.__init__()
self.a = torch.nn.parameter(torch.randn(()))
self.b = torch.nn.Parameter(torch.randn(()))
self.c = torch.nn.Parameter(torch.randn(()))
self.d = torch.nn.Parameter(torch.randn(()))
def forward(self, x):
return self.a + self.b * x + self.c * x ** 2 + self.d * x ** 3
def string(self):
return f'y = {self.a.item()} + {self.b.item()} x + {self.c.item()} x^2 + {self.d.item()} x^3'
我们还是可以用optim来优化模型。
PyTorch: Control Flow + Weight Sharing¶
在Torch的框架下，参数共享的操作是安全的，我们可以建立动态图的模型并用相同的方式优化。
看示例代码的这一段和注释就明白一些了。
def forward(self, x):
"""
For the forward pass of the model, we randomly choose either 4, 5
and reuse the e parameter to compute the contribution of these orders.
Since each forward pass builds a dynamic computation graph, we can use normal
Python control-flow operators like loops or conditional statements when
defining the forward pass of the model.
Here we also see that it is perfectly safe to reuse the same parameter many
times when defining a computational graph.
"""
y = self.a + self.b * x + self.c * x ** 2 + self.d * x ** 3
for exp in range(4, random.randint(4, 6)):
y = y + self.e * x ** exp
return y
