26.06.2020 · Hi, For the first question, please see these posts: Clarity on default initialization in pytorch; CNN default initialization understanding; I have explained the magic number math.sqrt(5) so you can also get the idea behind the relation between non-linearity and init method. Acuatlly, default initialization is uniform.
30.01.2018 · PyTorch 1.0. Most layers are initialized using Kaiming Uniform method. Example layers include Linear, Conv2d, RNN etc. If you are using other layers, you should look up that layer on this doc.If it says weights are initialized using U(...) then its Kaiming Uniform method. Bias is initialized using LeCunn init, i.e., uniform(-std, std) where standard deviation std is …
Apr 06, 2018 · Hey guys, when I train models for an image classification task, I tried replace the pretrained model’s last fc layer with a nn.Linear layer and a nn.Conv2d layer(by setting kernel_size=1 to act as a fc layer) respectively and found that two models performs differently. Specifically the conv2d one always performs better on my task. I wonder if it is because the different initialization ...
Jan 31, 2021 · Single-layer initialization. To initialize the weights of a single layer, use a function from torch.nn.init. For instance: 1. 2. conv1 = nn.Conv2d (4, 4, kernel_size=5) torch.nn.init.xavier_uniform (conv1.weight) Alternatively, you can modify the parameters by writing to conv1.weight.data which is a torch.Tensor.
21.03.2018 · I recently implemented the VGG16 architecture in Pytorch and trained it on the CIFAR-10 dataset, and I found that just by switching to xavier_uniform initialization for the weights (with biases initialized to 0), rather than using the default initialization, my validation accuracy after 30 epochs of RMSprop increased from 82% to 86%.
06.04.2018 · Specifically the conv2d one always performs better on my task. I wonder if it is because the different initialization methods for the two layers and what’s the default initialization method for a conv2d layer and linear layer in PyTorch. Thank you in advance.

30.01.2018 · E.g. the conv layer is initialized like this. However, it’s a good idea to use a suitable init function for your model. Have a look at the init functions. You can apply the weight inits like this: def weights_init(m): if isinstance(m, nn.Conv2d): xavier(m.weight.data) xavier(m.bias.data) model.apply(weights_init)
Apr 13, 2018 · For the dense layer which in pytorch is called linear for example, weights are initialized uniformly. stdv = 1. / math.sqrt (self.weight.size (1)) self.weight.data.uniform_ (-stdv, stdv) where self.weight.size (1) is the number of inputs. This is done to keep the variance of the distributions of each layer relatively similar at the beginning of ...
31.01.2021 · PyTorch has inbuilt weight initialization which works quite well so you wouldn’t have to worry about it but. You can check the default initialization of the Conv layer and Linear layer. There are a bunch of different initialization techniques like …
Nov 21, 2018 · Hi, I am new in PyTorch. When I created the weight tensors by calling torch.nn.Conv2d, I saw that its weights are initialized by some way. its values are not similar to non-initialized version. (see the captured image) Could you explain how these weights are initialized? I could not find any hint in docs file…
