Quick Start
===========
PyTorch Lightning is nothing more than organized PyTorch code.
Once you've organized it into a LightningModule, it automates most of the training for you.
Here's a 2 minute conversion guide for PyTorch projects:

----------
Step 1: Build LightningModule
-----------------------------
A lightningModule defines
- Train loop
- Val loop
- Test loop
- Model + system architecture
- Optimizer
.. code-block::
import os
import torch
import torch.nn.functional as F
from torchvision.datasets import MNIST
from torchvision import transforms
from torch.utils.data import DataLoader
import pytorch_lightning as pl
from torch.utils.data import random_split
class LitModel(pl.LightningModule):
def __init__(self):
super().__init__()
self.l1 = torch.nn.Linear(28 * 28, 10)
def forward(self, x):
return torch.relu(self.l1(x.view(x.size(0), -1)))
def training_step(self, batch, batch_idx):
x, y = batch
y_hat = self(x)
loss = F.cross_entropy(y_hat, y)
return loss
def configure_optimizers(self):
return torch.optim.Adam(self.parameters(), lr=0.0005)
----------
Step 2: Fit with a Trainer
--------------------------
The trainer calls each loop at the correct time as needed. It also ensures it all works
well across any accelerator.

Here's an example of using the Trainer:
.. code-block::
# dataloader
dataset = MNIST(os.getcwd(), download=True, transform=transforms.ToTensor())
train_loader = DataLoader(dataset)
# init model
model = LitModel()
# most basic trainer, uses good defaults (auto-tensorboard, checkpoints, logs, and more)
trainer = pl.Trainer()
trainer.fit(model, train_loader)
Using GPUs/TPUs
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
It's trivial to use GPUs or TPUs in Lightning. There's NO NEED to change your code, simply change the Trainer options.
.. code-block:: python
# train on 1, 2, 4, n GPUs
Trainer(gpus=1)
Trainer(gpus=2)
Trainer(gpus=8, num_nodes=n)
# train on TPUs
Trainer(tpu_cores=8)
Trainer(tpu_cores=128)
# even half precision
Trainer(gpus=2, precision=16)
The code above gives you the following for free:
- Automatic checkpoints
- Automatic Tensorboard (or the logger of your choice)
- Automatic CPU/GPU/TPU training
- Automatic 16-bit precision
All of it 100% rigorously tested and benchmarked
--------------
Lightning under the hood
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Lightning is designed for state of the art research ideas by researchers and research engineers from top labs.
A LightningModule handles advances cases by allowing you to override any critical part of training
via hooks that are called on your LightningModule.
.. raw:: html
<video width="100%" controls autoplay src="https://pl-bolts-doc-images.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/pl_docs/pt_callbacks_mov.m4v"></video>
----------------
Training loop under the hood
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This is the training loop pseudocode that lightning does under the hood:
.. code-block:: python
# init model
model = LitModel()
# enable training
torch.set_grad_enabled(True)
model.train()
# get data + optimizer
train_dataloader = model.train_dataloader()
optimizer = model.configure_optimizers()
for epoch in epochs:
for batch in train_dataloader:
# forward (TRAINING_STEP)
loss = model.training_step(batch)
# backward
loss.backward()
# apply and clear grads
optimizer.step()
optimizer.zero_grad()
Main take-aways:
- Lightning sets .train() and enables gradients when entering the training loop.
- Lightning iterates over the epochs automatically.
- Lightning iterates the dataloaders automatically.
- Training_step gives you full control of the main loop.
- .backward(), .step(), .zero_grad() are called for you. BUT, you can override this if you need manual control.
----------
Adding a Validation loop
------------------------
To add an (optional) validation loop add the following function
.. testcode::
class LitModel(LightningModule):
def validation_step(self, batch, batch_idx):
x, y = batch
y_hat = self(x)
loss = F.cross_entropy(y_hat, y)
result = pl.EvalResult(checkpoint_on=loss)
result.log('val_loss', loss)
return result
.. note:: EvalResult is a plain Dict, with convenience functions for logging
And now the trainer will call the validation loop automatically
.. code-block:: python
# pass in the val dataloader to the trainer as well
trainer.fit(
model,
train_dataloader,
val_dataloader
)
Validation loop under the hood
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Under the hood in pseudocode, lightning does the following:
.. code-block:: python
# ...
for batch in train_dataloader:
loss = model.training_step()
loss.backward()
# ...
if validate_at_some_point:
# disable grads + batchnorm + dropout
torch.set_grad_enabled(False)
model.eval()
val_outs = []
for val_batch in model.val_dataloader:
val_out = model.validation_step(val_batch)
val_outs.append(val_out)
model.validation_epoch_end(val_outs)
# enable grads + batchnorm + dropout
torch.set_grad_enabled(True)
model.train()
Lightning automatically:
- Enables gradients and sets model to train() in the train loop
- Disables gradients and sets model to eval() in val loop
- After val loop ends, enables gradients and sets model to train()
-------------
Adding a Test loop
------------------
You might also need an optional test loop
.. testcode::
class LitModel(LightningModule):
def test_step(self, batch, batch_idx):
x, y = batch
y_hat = self(x)
loss = F.cross_entropy(y_hat, y)
result = pl.EvalResult()
result.log('test_loss', loss)
return result
However, this time you need to specifically call test (this is done so you don't use the test set by mistake)
.. code-block:: python
# OPTION 1:
# test after fit
trainer.fit(model)
trainer.test(test_dataloaders=test_dataloader)
# OPTION 2:
# test after loading weights
model = LitModel.load_from_checkpoint(PATH)
trainer = Trainer()
trainer.test(test_dataloaders=test_dataloader)
Test loop under the hood
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Under the hood, lightning does the following in (pseudocode):
.. code-block:: python
# disable grads + batchnorm + dropout
torch.set_grad_enabled(False)
model.eval()
test_outs = []
for test_batch in model.test_dataloader:
test_out = model.test_step(val_batch)
test_outs.append(test_out)
model.test_epoch_end(test_outs)
# enable grads + batchnorm + dropout
torch.set_grad_enabled(True)
model.train()
---------------
Data
----
Lightning operates on standard PyTorch Dataloaders (of any flavor). Use dataloaders in 3 ways.
Data in fit
^^^^^^^^^^^
Pass the dataloaders into `trainer.fit()`
.. code-block:: python
trainer.fit(model, train_dataloader, val_dataloader)
Data in LightningModule
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
For fast research prototyping, it might be easier to link the model with the dataloaders.
.. code-block:: python
class LitModel(pl.LightningModule):
def train_dataloader(self):
# your train transforms
return DataLoader(YOUR_DATASET)
def val_dataloader(self):
# your val transforms
return DataLoader(YOUR_DATASET)
def test_dataloader(self):
# your test transforms
return DataLoader(YOUR_DATASET)
And fit like so:
.. code-block:: python
model = LitModel()
trainer.fit(model)
DataModule
^^^^^^^^^^
A more reusable approach is to define a DataModule which is simply a collection of all 3 data splits but
also captures:
- download instructions.
- processing.
- splitting.
- etc...
Here's an illustration that explains how to refactor your code into reusable DataModules.
.. raw:: html
<video width="100%" controls autoplay src="https://pl-bolts-doc-images.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/pl_docs/pt_dm_vid.m4v"></video>
|
And the matching code:
|
.. code-block::
class MNISTDataModule(pl.LightningDataModule):
def __init__(self, batch_size=32):
super().__init__()
self.batch_size = batch_size
def prepare_data(self):
# optional to support downloading only once when using multi-GPU or multi-TPU
MNIST(os.getcwd(), train=True, download=True)
MNIST(os.getcwd(), train=False, download=True)
def setup(self, stage):
transform=transforms.Compose([
transforms.ToTensor(),
transforms.Normalize((0.1307,), (0.3081,))
])
if stage == 'fit':
mnist_train = MNIST(os.getcwd(), train=True, transform=transform)
self.mnist_train, self.mnist_val = random_split(mnist_train, [55000, 5000])
if stage == 'test':
mnist_test = MNIST(os.getcwd(), train=False, transform=transform)
self.mnist_test = MNIST(os.getcwd(), train=False, download=True)
def train_dataloader(self):
mnist_train = DataLoader(self.mnist_train, batch_size=self.batch_size)
return mnist_train
def val_dataloader(self):
mnist_val = DataLoader(self.mnist_val, batch_size=self.batch_size)
return mnist_val
def test_dataloader(self):
mnist_test = DataLoader(mnist_test, batch_size=self.batch_size)
return mnist_test
And train like so:
.. code-block:: python
dm = MNISTDataModule()
trainer.fit(model, dm)
When doing distributed training, Datamodules have two optional arguments for granular control
over download/prepare/splitting data
.. code-block:: python
class MyDataModule(pl.DataModule):
def prepare_data(self):
# called only on 1 GPU
download()
tokenize()
etc()
def setup(self):
# called on every GPU (assigning state is OK)
self.train = ...
self.val = ...
def train_dataloader(self):
# do more...
return self.train
Building models based on Data
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Datamodules are the recommended approach when building models based on the data.
First, define the information that you might need.
.. code-block:: python
class MyDataModule(pl.DataModule):
def __init__(self):
super().__init__()
self.train_dims = None
self.vocab_size = 0
def prepare_data(self):
download_dataset()
tokenize()
build_vocab()
def setup(self):
vocab = load_vocab
self.vocab_size = len(vocab)
self.train, self.val, self.test = load_datasets()
self.train_dims = self.train.next_batch.size()
def train_dataloader(self):
transforms = ...
return DataLoader(self.train, transforms)
def val_dataloader(self):
transforms = ...
return DataLoader(self.val, transforms)
def test_dataloader(self):
transforms = ...
return DataLoader(self.test, transforms)
Next, materialize the data and build your model
.. code-block:: python
# build module
dm = MyDataModule()
dm.prepare_data()
dm.setup()
# pass in the properties you want
model = LitModel(image_width=dm.train_dims[0], vocab_length=dm.vocab_size)
# train
trainer.fit(model, dm)
-----------------
Logging/progress bar
--------------------

Lightning has built-in logging to any of the supported loggers or progress bar.
Log in train loop
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
To log from the training loop use the `log` method in the `TrainResult`.
.. code-block:: python
def training_step(self, batch, batch_idx):
loss = ...
result = pl.TrainResult(minimize=loss)
result.log('train_loss', loss)
return result
The `TrainResult` gives you options for logging on every step and/or at the end of the epoch.
It also allows logging to the progress bar.
.. code-block:: python
# equivalent
result.log('train_loss', loss)
result.log('train_loss', loss, prog_bar=False, logger=True, on_step=True, on_epoch=False)
Then boot up your logger or tensorboard instance to view training logs
.. code-block:: bash
tensorboard --logdir ./lightning_logs
.. warning:: Refreshing the progress bar too frequently in Jupyter notebooks or Colab may freeze your UI.
We recommend you set `Trainer(progress_bar_refresh_rate=10)`
Log in Val/Test loop
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
To log from the validation or test loop use the `EvalResult`.
.. code-block:: python
def validation_step(self, batch, batch_idx):
loss = ...
result = pl.EvalResult()
result.log_dict({'val_loss': loss, 'val_acc': acc})
return result
Log to the progress bar
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
.. code-block:: shell
Epoch 1: 4%|| 40/1095 [00:03<01:37, 10.84it/s, loss=4.501, v_num=10]
|
In addition to visual logging, you can log to the progress bar by setting `prog_bar` to True
.. code-block:: python
def training_step(self, batch, batch_idx):
loss = ...
result = pl.TrainResult(loss)
result.log('train_loss', loss, prog_bar=True)
-----------------
Advanced loop aggregation
-------------------------
For certain train/val/test loops, you may wish to do more than just logging. In this case,
you can also implement `__epoch_end` which gives you the output for each step
Here's the motivating Pytorch example:
.. code-block:: python
validation_step_outputs = []
for batch_idx, batch in val_dataloader():
out = validation_step(batch, batch_idx)
validation_step_outputs.append(out)
validation_epoch_end(validation_step_outputs)
And the lightning equivalent
.. code-block:: python
def validation_step(self, batch, batch_idx):
loss = ...
predictions = ...
result = pl.EvalResult(checkpoint_on=loss)
result.log('val_loss', loss)
result.predictions = predictions
def validation_epoch_end(self, validation_step_outputs):
all_val_losses = validation_step_outputs.val_loss
all_predictions = validation_step_outputs.predictions
Why do you need Lightning?
--------------------------
The MAIN teakeaway points are:
- Lightning is for professional AI researchers/production teams.
- Lightning is organized PyTorch. It is not an abstraction.
- You STILL keep pure PyTorch.
- You DON't lose any flexibility.
- You can get rid of all of your boilerplate.
- You make your code generalizable to any hardware.
- Your code is now readable and easier to reproduce (ie: you help with the reproducibility crisis).
- Your LightningModule is still just a pure PyTorch module.
Lightning is for you if
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- You're a professional researcher/ml engineer working on non-trivial deep learning.
- You already know PyTorch and are not a beginner.
- You want to iterate through research much faster.
- You want to put models into production much faster.
- You need full control of all the details but don't need the boilerplate.
- You want to leverage code written by hundreds of AI researchers, research engs and PhDs from the world's top AI labs.
- You need GPUs, multi-node training, half-precision and TPUs.
- You want research code that is rigorously tested (500+ tests) across CPUs/multi-GPUs/multi-TPUs on every pull-request.
Some more cool features
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Here are (some) of the other things you can do with lightning:
- Automatic checkpointing.
- Automatic early stopping.
- Automatically overfit your model for a sanity test.
- Automatic truncated-back-propagation-through-time.
- Automatically scale your batch size.
- Automatically attempt to find a good learning rate.
- Add arbitrary callbacks
- Hit every line of your code once to see if you have bugs (instead of waiting hours to crash on validation ;)
- Load checkpoints directly from S3.
- Move from CPUs to GPUs or TPUs without code changes.
- Profile your code for speed/memory bottlenecks.
- Scale to massive compute clusters.
- Use multiple dataloaders per train/val/test loop.
- Use multiple optimizers to do Reinforcement learning or even GANs.
Example:
^^^^^^^^
Without changing a SINGLE line of your code, you can now do the following with the above code
.. code-block:: python
# train on TPUs using 16 bit precision with early stopping
# using only half the training data and checking validation every quarter of a training epoch
trainer = Trainer(
tpu_cores=8,
precision=16,
early_stop_callback=True,
limit_train_batches=0.5,
val_check_interval=0.25
)
# train on 256 GPUs
trainer = Trainer(
gpus=8,
num_nodes=32
)
# train on 1024 CPUs across 128 machines
trainer = Trainer(
num_processes=8,
num_nodes=128
)
And the best part is that your code is STILL just PyTorch... meaning you can do anything you
would normally do.
.. code-block:: python
model = LitModel()
model.eval()
y_hat = model(x)
model.anything_you_can_do_with_pytorch()
