PyTorch 中通道在最后的内存格式(beta)
什么是通道在最后
通道在最后的内存格式是在保留内存尺寸的顺序中对 NCHW 张量进行排序的另一种方法。 通道最后一个张量的排序方式使通道成为最密集的维度(又称为每像素存储图像)。
例如,NCHW 张量的经典(连续)存储(在我们的示例中是具有 3 个颜色通道的两个2x2
图像)如下所示:
通道最后的存储格式对数据的排序方式不同:
Pytorch 通过使用现有的跨步结构支持内存格式(并提供与现有模型(包括 eager,JIT 和 TorchScript)的向后兼容性)。 例如,通道在最后的格式中的10x3x16x16
批量的步幅等于(768, 1, 48, 3)
。
通道最后一个存储格式仅适用于 4D NCWH 张量。
import torch
N, C, H, W = 10, 3, 32, 32
内存格式 API
这是在连续和通道最后存储格式之间转换张量的方法。
经典 PyTorch 连续张量
x = torch.empty(N, C, H, W)
print(x.stride()) # Ouputs: (3072, 1024, 32, 1)
出:
(3072, 1024, 32, 1)
转换运算符
x = x.contiguous(memory_format=torch.channels_last)
print(x.shape) # Outputs: (10, 3, 32, 32) as dimensions order preserved
print(x.stride()) # Outputs: (3072, 1, 96, 3)
出:
torch.Size([10, 3, 32, 32])
(3072, 1, 96, 3)
返回连续
x = x.contiguous(memory_format=torch.contiguous_format)
print(x.stride()) # Outputs: (3072, 1024, 32, 1)
出:
(3072, 1024, 32, 1)
替代选择
x = x.to(memory_format=torch.channels_last)
print(x.stride()) # Ouputs: (3072, 1, 96, 3)
出:
(3072, 1, 96, 3)
格式检查
print(x.is_contiguous(memory_format=torch.channels_last)) # Ouputs: True
出:
True
最后创建为渠道
x = torch.empty(N, C, H, W, memory_format=torch.channels_last)
print(x.stride()) # Ouputs: (3072, 1, 96, 3)
出:
(3072, 1, 96, 3)
clone
保留内存格式
y = x.clone()
print(y.stride()) # Ouputs: (3072, 1, 96, 3)
出:
(3072, 1, 96, 3)
to
,cuda
,float
…保留内存格式
if torch.cuda.is_available():
y = x.cuda()
print(y.stride()) # Ouputs: (3072, 1, 96, 3)
出:
(3072, 1, 96, 3)
empty_like
和*_like
运算符保留内存格式
y = torch.empty_like(x)
print(y.stride()) # Ouputs: (3072, 1, 96, 3)
出:
(3072, 1, 96, 3)
点向运算符保留内存格式
z = x + y
print(z.stride()) # Ouputs: (3072, 1, 96, 3)
出:
(3072, 1, 96, 3)
转换,Batchnorm
模块支持通道在最后(仅适用于CudNN >= 7.6
)
if torch.backends.cudnn.version() >= 7603:
input = torch.randint(1, 10, (2, 8, 4, 4), dtype=torch.float32, device="cuda", requires_grad=True)
model = torch.nn.Conv2d(8, 4, 3).cuda().float()
input = input.contiguous(memory_format=torch.channels_last)
model = model.to(memory_format=torch.channels_last) # Module parameters need to be Channels Last
out = model(input)
print(out.is_contiguous(memory_format=torch.channels_last)) # Ouputs: True
出:
True

转换现有模型
通道在最后支持不受现有模型的限制,因为只要输入格式正确,任何模型都可以转换为通道在最后,并通过图传播格式。
# Need to be done once, after model initialization (or load)
model = model.to(memory_format=torch.channels_last) # Replace with your model
# Need to be done for every input
input = input.to(memory_format=torch.channels_last) # Replace with your input
output = model(input)
但是,并非所有运算符都完全转换为支持通道在最后(通常返回连续输出)。 这意味着您需要根据支持的运算符列表来验证已使用运算符的列表,或将内存格式检查引入急切的执行模式并运行模型。
运行以下代码后,如果运算符的输出与输入的存储格式不匹配,运算符将引发异常。

如果您发现不支持通道在最后的张量的运算符并且想要贡献力量,请随时使用以下开发人员指南。
下面的代码是恢复火炬的属性。

for (k,v) in attrs.items():
setattr(m, k, v)
要做的工作
仍有许多事情要做,例如:
- 解决 N1HW 和 NC11 张量的歧义;
- 测试分布式训练支持;
- 提高运算符覆盖率。
