Pytorch pipeline with torch.distributed

utils.trainer.TrainLoop will run training loop - compatible with torch.distributed.run

All you need to do

• Complete config/train.py's TrainSettings(or YourSettings) class.
  • this setting class is compatible with argparse and json.
• Complete data/__init__.py's load_data_from_args function.
• Complete model package.
• Complete utils/initialization.py's create_model_from_config function.
• Complete some method of utils/trainer.py's TrainLoop class.
  • log_loss_dict method: logging function of loss values dict.
  • compute_losses method: calculate losses from micro_batch and TrainLoop vars
  • backward_from_losses method: make single loss from losses, and run loss.backward()
  • __init__ method: add your extra values to TrainLoop vars if needed.
• Complete run/train.py to make sense with all code signatures you modified.
• Modify setting json file, after copying default train settings with command,

  python3 -c "from config;train import TrainSettings as T; print(T().json(indent=2))" >> train_config.json
  

How to run

after completion, you can run train script with

python3 -m run.train --distributed --config_json train_config.json
