The lightning training loop handles everything except the actual computations of your model. To decide what will happen in your training loop, define the [training_step function](https://williamfalcon.github.io/pytorch-lightning/LightningModule/RequiredTrainerInterface/#training_step).
|
|
|
|
Below are all the things lightning automates for you in the training loop.
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
#### Accumulated gradients
|
|
Accumulated gradients runs K small batches of size N before doing a backwards pass. The effect is a large effective batch size of size KxN.
|
|
|
|
``` {.python}
|
|
# DEFAULT (ie: no accumulated grads)
|
|
trainer = Trainer(accumulate_grad_batches=1)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
#### Force training for min or max epochs
|
|
It can be useful to force training for a minimum number of epochs or limit to a max number
|
|
``` {.python}
|
|
# DEFAULT
|
|
trainer = Trainer(min_nb_epochs=1, max_nb_epochs=1000)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
#### Force disable early stop
|
|
Use this to turn off early stopping and run training to the [max_epoch](#force-training-for-min-or-max-epochs)
|
|
``` {.python}
|
|
# DEFAULT
|
|
trainer = Trainer(enable_early_stop=True)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
#### Gradient Clipping
|
|
Use this to turn off early stopping and run training to the [max_epoch](#force-training-for-min-or-max-epochs)
|
|
``` {.python}
|
|
# DEFAULT (ie: don't clip)
|
|
trainer = Trainer(gradient_clip=0)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
#### Inspect gradient norms
|
|
Looking at grad norms can help you figure out where training might be going wrong.
|
|
``` {.python}
|
|
# DEFAULT (-1 doesn't track norms)
|
|
trainer = Trainer(track_grad_norm=-1)
|
|
|
|
# track the LP norm (P=2 here)
|
|
trainer = Trainer(track_grad_norm=2)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
#### Set how much of the training set to check
|
|
If you don't want to check 100% of the training set (for debugging or if it's huge), set this flag
|
|
``` {.python}
|
|
# DEFAULT
|
|
trainer = Trainer(train_percent_check=1.0)
|
|
|
|
# check 10% only
|
|
trainer = Trainer(train_percent_check=0.1)
|
|
```
