Pytorch官方教程学习笔记（4）

数据并行处理

Authors: Sung Kim <https://github.com/hunkim>_ and Jenny Kang <https://github.com/jennykang>_

在本文中，我们将学习如何使用DataParallel来进行多GPUs的调用。

在Pytorch中使用多GPU非常简单。可以使用以下代码将模型放到一个GPU中：

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

接着，可以将所有tensors拷贝至GPU中：

mytensor = my_tensor.to(device)

这里需要注意的是，使用my_tensor.to(device)返回的是GPU中的my_tensor的拷贝，不会重写my_tensor。
需要将返回的tensor赋值给新的tensor，并在GPU使用该tensor。

这样一来，在多GPUs中执行前向传播、反向传播将变得很容易。然而，Pytorch默认使用单GPU。因而，要使用多GPU时需要调用
DataParallel，例如：

model = nn.DataParallel(model)

Imports and parameters

Import PyTorch modules and define parameters.

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

设备

device = torch.device("cuda:0" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu")# 获取设备
print(device)

cuda:0

虚拟数据集

Make a dummy (random) dataset. You just need to implement the
getitem

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)

dataset1 = RandomDataset(10, 5)
print(dataset1.__len__())

简单模型

For the demo, our model just gets an input, performs a linear operation, and
gives an output. However, you can use DataParallel on any model (CNN, RNN,
Capsule Net etc.)

We’ve placed a print statement inside the model to monitor the size of input
and output tensors.
Please pay attention to what is printed at batch rank 0.

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

模型创建与数据并行

This is the core part of the tutorial. First, we need to make a model instance
and check if we have multiple GPUs. If we have multiple GPUs, we can wrap
our model using nn.DataParallel. Then we can put our model on GPUs by
model.to(device)

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)

Model(
  (fc): Linear(in_features=5, out_features=2, bias=True)
)

运行模型

Now we can see the sizes of input and output tensors.

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

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

结果

If you have no GPU or one GPU, when we batch 30 inputs and 30 outputs, the model gets 30 and outputs 30 as
expected. But if you have multiple GPUs, then you can get results like this.

2 GPUs

If you have 2, you will see:

# on 2 GPUs

总结

观察上面的结果得到，DataParallel会自动对数据进行分配，并依次送入不同GPUs的模型中。在每个GPU处理完后，DataParallel会对最终的结果进行收集合并，并将最后的结果返回。
