nn.Module vs nn.functional
前者会保存权重等信息，后者只是做运算
parameters()
返回可训练参数
nn.ModuleList vs. nn.ParameterList vs. nn.Sequential
layer_list = [nn.Conv2d(5,5,3), nn.BatchNorm2d(5), nn.Linear(5,2)]
class myNet(nn.Module):
def __init__(self):
super().__init__()
self.layers = layer_list
def forward(x):
for layer in self.layers:
x = layer(x)
net = myNet()
print(list(net.parameters())) # Parameters of modules in the layer_list don't show up.nn.ModuleList的作用就是wrap pthon list，这样其中的参数会被注册，因此可以返回可训练参数(ParameterList)。
nn.Sequential的作用如下：
class myNet(nn.Module):
def __init__(self):
super().__init__()
self.layers = nn.Sequential(
nn.Relu(inplace=True),
nn.Linear(10, 10)
)
def forward(x):
x = layer(x)
x = torch.rand(10)
net = myNet()
print(net(x).shape)可以看到Sequential的作用就是按照指定的顺序构建网络结构，得到一个完整的模块，而ModuleList则只是像list那样把元素集合起来而已。
nn.modules vs. nn.children
class myNet(nn.Module):
def __init__(self):
super().__init__()
self.convBN = nn.Sequential(nn.Conv2d(10,10,3), nn.BatchNorm2d(10))
self.linear = nn.Linear(10,2)
def forward(self, x):
pass
Net = myNet()
print("Printing children\n------------------------------")
print(list(Net.children()))
print("\n\nPrinting Modules\n------------------------------")
print(list(Net.modules()))输出信息如下：
Printing children
------------------------------
[Sequential(
(0): Conv2d(10, 10, kernel_size=(3, 3), stride=(1, 1))
(1): BatchNorm2d(10, eps=1e-05, momentum=0.1, affine=True, track_running_stats=True)
), Linear(in_features=10, out_features=2, bias=True)]
Printing Modules
------------------------------
[myNet(
(convBN1): Sequential(
(0): Conv2d(10, 10, kernel_size=(3, 3), stride=(1, 1))
(1): BatchNorm2d(10, eps=1e-05, momentum=0.1, affine=True, track_running_stats=True)
)
(linear): Linear(in_features=10, out_features=2, bias=True)
), Sequential(
(0): Conv2d(10, 10, kernel_size=(3, 3), stride=(1, 1))
(1): BatchNorm2d(10, eps=1e-05, momentum=0.1, affine=True, track_running_stats=True)
), Conv2d(10, 10, kernel_size=(3, 3), stride=(1, 1)), BatchNorm2d(10, eps=1e-05, momentum=0.1, affine=True, track_running_stats=True), Linear(in_features=10, out_features=2, bias=True)]可以看到children只会返回子元素，子元素可能是单个操作，如Linear，也可能是Sequential。 而modules()返回的信息更加详细，不仅会返回children一样的信息，同时还会递归地返回，例如modules()会迭代地返回Sequential中包含的若干个子元素。
named_*
- named_parameters: 返回一个
iterator,每次它会提供包含参数名的元组。
In [27]: x = torch.nn.Linear(2,3)
In [28]: x_name_params = x.named_parameters()
In [29]: next(x_name_params)
Out[29]:
('weight', Parameter containing:
tensor([[-0.5262, 0.3480],
[-0.6416, -0.1956],
[ 0.5042, 0.6732]], requires_grad=True))
In [30]: next(x_name_params)
Out[30]:
('bias', Parameter containing:
tensor([ 0.0595, -0.0386, 0.0975], requires_grad=True))- named_modules
这个其实就是把上面提到的nn.modules以iterator的形式返回，每次读取和上面一样也是用next()，示例如下：
In [46]: class myNet(nn.Module):
...: def __init__(self):
...: super().__init__()
...: self.convBN1 = nn.Sequential(nn.Conv2d(10,10,3), nn.BatchNorm2d(10))
...: self.linear = nn.Linear(10,2)
...:
...: def forward(self, x):
...: pass
...:
In [47]: net = myNet()
In [48]: net_named_modules = net.named_modules()
In [49]: next(net_named_modules)
Out[49]:
('', myNet(
(convBN1): Sequential(
(0): Conv2d(10, 10, kernel_size=(3, 3), stride=(1, 1))
(1): BatchNorm2d(10, eps=1e-05, momentum=0.1, affine=True, track_running_stats=True)
)
(linear): Linear(in_features=10, out_features=2, bias=True)
))
In [50]: next(net_named_modules)
Out[50]:
('convBN1', Sequential(
(0): Conv2d(10, 10, kernel_size=(3, 3), stride=(1, 1))
(1): BatchNorm2d(10, eps=1e-05, momentum=0.1, affine=True, track_running_stats=True)
))
In [51]: next(net_named_modules)
Out[51]: ('convBN1.0', Conv2d(10, 10, kernel_size=(3, 3), stride=(1, 1)))
In [52]: next(net_named_modules)
Out[52]:
('convBN1.1',
BatchNorm2d(10, eps=1e-05, momentum=0.1, affine=True, track_running_stats=True))
In [53]: next(net_named_modules)
Out[53]: ('linear', Linear(in_features=10, out_features=2, bias=True))
In [54]: next(net_named_modules)
