## Just launched GridAI
|
|
Our native platform for training models at scale on the cloud!
|
|
|
|
**Sign up for [early access here](https://www.grid.ai/)**
|
|
|
|
To use grid, take your regular command:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
python my_model.py --learning_rate 1e-6 --layers 2 --gpus 4
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
And change it to use the grid train command:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
grid train --grid_gpus 4 my_model.py --learning_rate 'uniform(1e-6, 1e-1, 20)' --layers '[2, 4, 8, 16]'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The above command will launch (20 * 4) experiments each running on 4 GPUs (320 GPUs!) - by making ZERO changes to
|
|
your code.
|

## PyTorch Lightning is just organized PyTorch
|
|
Lightning disentangles PyTorch code to decouple the science from the engineering.
|
|
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Lightning Philosophy
|
|
Lightning is designed with these principles in mind:
|
|
|
|
Principle 1: Enable maximal flexibility.
|
|
Principle 2: Abstract away unecessary boilerplate, but make it accessible when needed.
|
|
Principle 3: Systems should be self-contained (ie: optimizers, computation code, etc).
|
|
Principle 4: Deep learning code should be organized into 4 distinct categories.
|
|
|
|
- Research code (the LightningModule).
|
|
- Engineering code (you delete, and is handled by the Trainer).
|
|
- Non-essential research code (logging, etc... this goes in Callbacks).
|
|
- Data (use PyTorch Dataloaders or organize them into a LightningDataModule).
|
|
|
|
Once you do this, you can train on multiple-GPUs, TPUs, CPUs and even in 16-bit precision without changing your code!
|
|
|
|
Get started with our [2 step guide](https://pytorch-lightning.readthedocs.io/en/stable/new-project.html)
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Inference
|
|
Lightning is also designed for the fast inference AI researchers and production teams need to scale up things like BERT and self-supervised learning.
|
|
Lightning can automatically export to ONNX or TorchScript for those cases.

## How To Use
|
|
|
|
#### Step 0: Install
|
|
|
|
Simple installation from PyPI
|
|
```bash
|
|
pip install pytorch-lightning
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
From Conda
|
|
```bash
|
|
conda install pytorch-lightning -c conda-forge
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Install bleeding-edge (no guarantees)
|
|
```bash
|
|
pip install git+https://github.com/PytorchLightning/pytorch-lightning.git@master --upgrade
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Step 0: Add these imports
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
import os
|
|
import torch
|
|
from torch import nn
|
|
import torch.nn.functional as F
|
|
from torchvision.datasets import MNIST
|
|
from torch.utils.data import DataLoader, random_split
|
|
from torchvision import transforms
|
|
import pytorch_lightning as pl
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Step 1: Define a LightningModule (nn.Module subclass)
|
|
A LightningModule defines a full *system* (ie: a GAN, autoencoder, BERT or a simple Image Classifier).
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
class LitAutoEncoder(pl.LightningModule):
|
|
|
|
def __init__(self):
|
|
super().__init__()
|
|
self.encoder = nn.Sequential(nn.Linear(28 * 28, 128), nn.ReLU(), nn.Linear(128, 3))
|
|
self.decoder = nn.Sequential(nn.Linear(3, 128), nn.ReLU(), nn.Linear(128, 28 * 28))
|
|
|
|
def forward(self, x):
|
|
# in lightning, forward defines the prediction/inference actions
|
|
embedding = self.encoder(x)
|
|
return embedding
|
|
|
|
def training_step(self, batch, batch_idx):
|
|
# training_step defined the train loop. It is independent of forward
|
|
x, y = batch
|
|
x = x.view(x.size(0), -1)
|
|
z = self.encoder(x)
|
|
x_hat = self.decoder(z)
|
|
loss = F.mse_loss(x_hat, x)
|
|
self.log('train_loss', loss)
|
|
return loss
|
|
|
|
def configure_optimizers(self):
|
|
optimizer = torch.optim.Adam(self.parameters(), lr=1e-3)
|
|
return optimizer
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
###### Note: Training_step defines the training loop. Forward defines how the LightningModule behaves during inference/prediction.
|
|
|
|
#### Step 2: Train!
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
dataset = MNIST(os.getcwd(), download=True, transform=transforms.ToTensor())
|
|
train, val = random_split(dataset, [55000, 5000])
|
|
|
|
autoencoder = LitAutoEncoder()
|
|
trainer = pl.Trainer()
|
|
trainer.fit(autoencoder, DataLoader(train), DataLoader(val))
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### And without changing a single line of code, you could run on GPUs
|
|
```python
|
|
# 8 GPUs
|
|
trainer = Trainer(max_epochs=1, gpus=8)
|
|
|
|
# 256 GPUs
|
|
trainer = Trainer(max_epochs=1, gpus=8, num_nodes=32)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or TPUs
|
|
```python
|
|
# Distributes TPU core training
|
|
trainer = Trainer(tpu_cores=8)
|
|
|
|
# Single TPU core training
|
|
trainer = Trainer(tpu_cores=[1])
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### For advanced users, you can still own complex training loops
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
class LitAutoEncoder(pl.LightningModule):
|
|
def training_step(self, batch, batch_idx, opt_idx):
|
|
(opt_a, opt_b) = self.optimizers()
|
|
|
|
loss_a = ...
|
|
self.manual_backward(loss_a, opt_a)
|
|
opt_a.step()
|
|
opt_a.zero_grad()
|
|
|
|
loss_b = ...
|
|
self.manual_backward(loss_b, opt_b, retain_graph=True)
|
|
self.manual_backward(loss_b, opt_b)
|
|
opt_b.step()
|
|
opt_b.zero_grad()
|
|
|
|
```
|

## Key Features
|
|
|
|
* Scale your models to run on any hardware (CPU, GPUs, TPUs) without changing your model
|
|
* Making code more readable by decoupling the research code from the engineering
|
|
* Easier to reproduce
|
|
* Less error prone by automating most of the training loop and tricky engineering
|
|
* Keeps all the flexibility (LightningModules are still PyTorch modules), but removes a ton of boilerplate
|
|
* Lightning has out-of-the-box integration with the popular logging/visualizing frameworks ([Tensorboard](https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/tensorboard.html), [MLFlow](https://mlflow.org/), [Neptune.ai](https://neptune.ai/), [Comet.ml](https://www.comet.ml/site/), [Wandb](https://www.wandb.com/)).
|
|
* [Tested rigorously with every new PR](https://github.com/PyTorchLightning/pytorch-lightning/tree/master/tests). We test every combination of PyTorch and Python supported versions, every OS, multi GPUs and even TPUs.
|
|
* Minimal running speed overhead (about 300 ms per epoch compared with pure PyTorch).

### Funding
|
|
Building open-source software with only a few part-time people is hard!
|
|
|
|
[We're venture funded](https://techcrunch.com/2020/10/08/grid-ai-raises-18-6m-series-a-to-help-ai-researchers-and-engineers-bring-their-models-to-production/)
|
|
and backed by some of the top VC funds in the world, [Index Ventures](https://www.indexventures.com/companies/), [Bain Capital Ventures](https://www.baincapitalventures.com/portfolio/), [First Minute Capital](https://firstminute.capital/companies).
|
|
|
|
Their funding ensures we can continue to build awesome tooling like Grid, give you around the clock support,
|
|
hire a full-time staff, attend conferences, and move faster through implementing features you request.
