## Docs
|
|
**[View the docs here](https://williamfalcon.github.io/pytorch-lightning/)**
|
|
|
|
## What is it?
|
|
Keras and fast.ai are too abstract for researchers. Lightning abstracts the full training loop but gives you control in the critical points.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Why do I want to use lightning?
|
|
Because you don't want to define a training loop, validation loop, gradient clipping, checkpointing, loading,
|
|
gpu training, etc... every time you start a project. Let lightning handle all of that for you! Just define your
|
|
data and what happens in the training, testing and validation loop and lightning will do the rest.
|
|
|
|
To use lightning do 2 things:
|
|
1. [Define a Trainer](https://github.com/williamFalcon/pytorch-lightning/blob/master/examples/new_project_templates/trainer_cpu_template.py).
|
|
2. [Define a LightningModel](https://github.com/williamFalcon/pytorch-lightning/blob/master/examples/new_project_templates/lightning_module_template.py).
|
|
|
|
## What does lightning control for me?
|
|
Everything! Except the following three things:
|
|
|
|
**What happens in the training loop**
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
# define what happens for training here
|
|
def training_step(self, data_batch, batch_nb):
|
|
x, y = data_batch
|
|
|
|
# define your own forward and loss calculation
|
|
out = self.forward(x)
|
|
loss = my_loss(out, y)
|
|
return {'loss': loss}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**What happens in the validation loop**
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
# define what happens for validation here
|
|
def validation_step(self, data_batch, batch_nb):
|
|
x, y = data_batch
|
|
|
|
# define your own forward and loss calculation
|
|
out = self.forward(x)
|
|
loss = my_loss(out, y)
|
|
return {'loss': loss}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**And what to do with the output of all validation batches**
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
def validation_end(self, outputs):
|
|
"""
|
|
Called at the end of validation to aggregate outputs
|
|
:param outputs: list of individual outputs of each validation step
|
|
:return:
|
|
"""
|
|
val_loss_mean = 0
|
|
val_acc_mean = 0
|
|
for output in outputs:
|
|
val_loss_mean += output['val_loss']
|
|
val_acc_mean += output['val_acc']
|
|
|
|
val_loss_mean /= len(outputs)
|
|
val_acc_mean /= len(outputs)
|
|
tqdm_dic = {'val_loss': val_loss_mean.item(), 'val_acc': val_acc_mean.item()}
|
|
return tqdm_dic
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

## Demo
|
|
```bash
|
|
# install lightning
|
|
pip install pytorch-lightning
|
|
|
|
# clone lightning for the demo
|
|
git clone https://github.com/williamFalcon/pytorch-lightning.git
|
|
cd examples/new_project_templates/
|
|
|
|
# run demo (on cpu)
|
|
python trainer_gpu_cluster_template.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Without changing the model AT ALL, you can run the model on a single gpu, over multiple gpus, or over multiple nodes.
|
|
```bash
|
|
# run a grid search on two gpus
|
|
python fully_featured_trainer.py --gpus "0;1"
|
|
|
|
# run single model on multiple gpus
|
|
python fully_featured_trainer.py --gpus "0;1" --interactive
|
|
```
