pytorch數據並行

原文鏈接：DATA PARALLELISM

---

在這個教程中，我們將學習怎樣通過DataParallel在多GPU上實現數據並行。

在pytorch中使用GPUs非常簡單，比如可以通過下面語句將模型放入一張GPU中：

device = torch.device("cuda:0")
model.to(device)

然後，將張量複製到GPU中

mytensor = my_tensor.to(device)

只需要通過my_tensor.to(device)就會返回一個位於GPU的張量而不用重新構建mytensor

在多張GPU中實現前向傳播反向傳播也很簡單，但是pytorch默認使用一張GPU。如下通過使用DataParallel可以很容易地實現多GPU並行訓練

model = nn.DataParallel(model)

下面我們通過一個實例具體介紹整個流程。

導入模塊並初始化參數

導入相關模塊，定義模型參數

import torch
import torch.nn as nn
from torch.utils.data import Dataset, DataLoader

# Parameters and DataLoaders
input_size = 5
output_size = 2

batch_size = 30
data_size = 100

指定設備

device = torch.device("cuda:0" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu")

定義一個隨機數據集

class RandomDataset(Dataset):

    def __init__(self, size, length):
        self.len = length
        self.data = torch.randn(length, size)

    def __getitem__(self, index):
        return self.data[index]

    def __len__(self):
        return self.len

rand_loader = DataLoader(dataset=RandomDataset(input_size, data_size),
                         batch_size=batch_size, shuffle=True)

定義一個簡單的模型

爲了測試，構建一個簡單的線性模型

注意，我們在模型中添加了print語句，來監視輸入輸出張量的size

class Model(nn.Module):
    # Our model

    def __init__(self, input_size, output_size):
        super(Model, self).__init__()
        self.fc = nn.Linear(input_size, output_size)

    def forward(self, input):
        output = self.fc(input)
        print("\tIn Model: input size", input.size(),
              "output size", output.size())

        return output

構建模型和並實現數據並行

這是這篇教程的核心部分。首先，我們需要構建模型實例並檢查環境是否有多張GPU,如果有多張GPU，使用nn.DataParallel(model)操作。然後使用model.to(device)將模型置於GPU

model = Model(input_size, output_size)
if torch.cuda.device_count() > 1:
  print("Let's use", torch.cuda.device_count(), "GPUs!")
  # dim = 0 [30, xxx] -> [10, ...], [10, ...], [10, ...] on 3 GPUs
  model = nn.DataParallel(model)

model.to(device)

out:

Let's use 2 GPUs!

跑模型

現在我們可以清楚地看到輸入輸出的張量的size

for data in rand_loader:
    input = data.to(device)
    output = model(input)
    print("Outside: input size", input.size(),
          "output_size", output.size())

out:

In Model: input size    In Model: input size torch.Size([15, 5]) output size torch.Size([15, 2])
 torch.Size([15, 5]) output size torch.Size([15, 2])
Outside: input size torch.Size([30, 5]) output_size torch.Size([30, 2])
        In Model: input size torch.Size([15, 5]) output size torch.Size([15, 2])
        In Model: input size torch.Size([15, 5]) output size torch.Size([15, 2])
Outside: input size torch.Size([30, 5]) output_size torch.Size([30, 2])
        In Model: input size torch.Size([15, 5]) output size torch.Size([15, 2])
        In Model: input size torch.Size([15, 5]) output size torch.Size([15, 2])
Outside: input size torch.Size([30, 5]) output_size torch.Size([30, 2])
        In Model: input size torch.Size([5, 5]) output size torch.Size([5, 2])
        In Model: input size torch.Size([5, 5]) output size torch.Size([5, 2])
Outside: input size torch.Size([10, 5]) output_size torch.Size([10, 2])
